What would you like to see next from Stargrave?
I’d like to see translations. Seriously. I know those are always just costs that need to be calculated before you know if your new idea sticks but… I really like to read rules without a dictionary 😉
I agree. Although not ideal, even if the publisher made the books available digitally in other languages that would be a huge benefit. Obviously it’s not as simple as all that and I know of other companies that have had problems getting their own rules translated.
??like in german? why ? your English is great anyway
why? your english is good enough and translation would only pissed you off 😀
Only bad translations would. And to be honest casually speaking and lacking the occasional term is one thing. Misreading a rule can break the game. There have been heated discussions on this topic over at X-Wing and Legion for that reason. Also the “install base” gets wider with more non-English speaking players in any given country.
Eternal Hope sounds great. I have really enjoyed the Quarantine 37 solo games so far and hope to play some bounty hunting solo missions soon too. This has been a great week of content. And sparked some terrain building and mini painting in Stargrave all over again.
My wife and I are finding we enjoy coop more that competitive so we are looking forward to hope eternal!
Solo play was all i wanted & i am gettin it. In Hope. Space battle whit ships!!!
I’m loving the variety in the types of crews.
Thanks for this Stargrave week! As I am just entering Space of futuristic ages gaming, I dont know where to start with terrain. I definitely will buy a gaming mat. Then I will browse for buildings. What i am missing is starships.
Always nice to get a little background for the designers decisions.
Firefly that’s the show I was thing off watching the games with a chunk of A team to beef up the gang aspect more. its certainly a great game with a small group number to get players in quickly.
Thanks guys.
Thanks for this Stargrave week guys!
Thanks to this week, i’ve stated painting some scenery pieces and a few crewmen! And i still need to put togheter a few more 😉 Can’t wait to check out the rest of the scenarios of The Last Prospector”.
A very interesting interview – That Mr.McCullough sure is a talented chap!
Stargrave does sound like something I could really enjoy a deep deep dive in to with a friend
this expansion and the next sounds great
The campaign sounds great. And I totally want to get a bar fight going on the tabletop.
Moar campaigns! MOAR!
Another add-on and it’s solo or coop mode too! CAN’T WAIT!
Eternal Hope sounds good, to be fair there has yet to be a “grave” expansion I haven’t liked
Absolute pleasure it was.
i ususaly dont play Solo but this would be fun to play
I love the idea of campaign games, and I collect them. Do I finish them? No. Ug.. really need to sit down and do this… looks so much fun.
I like having the new campaign structure… Hope some of it bleeds in to the other games, especially Silver Bayonet, whose campaign structure is a bit meh, honestly. And curious to see Big Damn Heroes in the next supplement.
Great work on Stargrave week, really enjoyed everything.
Also great to hear from Joe that there’s even more Stargrave in the pipeline.
Never doubted it to be honest, the man’s a machine and there doesn’t appear to be any sign of him slowing down.
Great to see more solo options for tabletop coming out.
Last Prospector sounds good but Eternal Hope has me really excited.
This really looks like a fun campaign. I’m going to have to get my group to play this.
