sure thing! Well I’m about to start the umbra Stations expansion so in my ongoing narrative (I like to thematically tie the games I’m playing together so there’s some flow between them and a sense of scale), the commander needs to first ‘acquire’ the derelict craft that will be used in that game. So I’m using Cold Carrion as a means of exploring potential options.
I don’t have much specific feedback yet as I’ve only done one ship so far. Combat moves fairly slow, but that’s because I haven’t figured out the best way to keep track of the combat area yet. I’m just using a pencil/eraser on the same grid and it’s a bit messy. I might move to a laminated grid and dry erase marker, or even a chessboard! :)
Have you thought about more enemy variations or the possibility of starting with a higher number of enemies? Being outnumbered might help increase the difficulty curve and force a bit more strategy. I don’t think it would unbalance things. But I haven’t designed a combat system so I could be way wrong.
One thing I noticed was a typo on the consumables and equipment tables say d12 when it’s a d8 :)
Hope that feedback is ok, I’m not one for heavy overly complicated rules, nor too easy/quick, and this is just about the right level for me.
