Build your battle cruisers and battle!
Hi forums!

I'm an oldie of ogre stronghold and i used to have a giant ogre army.
Now i'm designing a small starship game that's played tabletop like warhammer..

Only diffrence is that instead of inches i use Cm as movement points.
I'm currently writing the rule book and have done a basic "engine" that somehow runs.

I desperately need help from you forums. I need a guy who is pretty good at the english language to proof read the rulebook and edit some typos and misspronounces. Also the rulebook should get cleaned up a bit since its fastly written to betatest the game.

For models i prefeer to use lego's since everyone has them and they're cheap.
For each ship there are classes like "drones" and "fighters" ect....

Each ship should have a size minium and maxium (in cm)


Can someone help me bring this custom game alive?
Introducing:

Drones.

Drones are small ships that have a very high movement and can turn 360 degrees!
They are equipped with one weapon and have a small health pool.

Drones are usually made in a drone controlling unit in a ship.



You can use drones to block enemy missiles or harassing fighter ships from behind.
Upgrading your drone controlling unit gives you the ability to control more drones.
You can also make missile defense drones that hover around your ship and shoot out enemy missiles.


Here is a 3D mock up for drones AND introducing interceptors:



Interceptors are exactly like drones but they're equiped with two lasers that shoot once. (2 shots)
And they have 2 life and 1 shields (Shields are ignored by missiles)

Interceptors can be only made from a carrier type battleship. Carriers are equipped with only drone controls and no weapons. But they get to spawn interceptors. Interceptors can be used to block missiles by moving in front of the fire.


(Drones and interceptors must be smaller in length and width than a 4x4 lego plate)
I could give you some help. Im from the uk, so getting some of the typos should be easy enuf.

Thanks johnnyandbex! i'll send you the text file and we can get started.
I must warn you that the text is very rough and just fastly typed to create a game engine.
i will look at it soon as i can

Introducing fighters!


Fighters are highly mobile ships that have a maxium of 2 weapons.
they are good at maneuvering fast trough the battle field. They can only shoot forwards and have one agument.

Fighters are good against heavy class cruisers that have weak weapons in the back and drones.
