Pz8 Space Fighter Dog Fight Rules

[Athos3]

I've been messing with the WWII / WWI aircraft rules to see if they could be modded to recreate the dog fights in Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica, Buck Rogers and such.  

If a fighter has shields is has an S in the bottom right corner.  If it has FTL or hyper-drive it has an H in that bottom right corner.  

These are rough and have not been thoroughly play tested.  If anyone does play test them feed back is appreciated.
 
Thanks
Pete

Very creative. If I have time I will look at them and provide feedback.

I haven't play tested them but I have some basic feed back.

First, very important! Change this paragraph to reflect that these are an off-shoot of panzer8's rules created by you and the proper date.

These ultra-simple rules are intended for a very quick game or a campaign between fighters,
fighter bombers and dive bombers squadrons.

As for the rules, where are your example star ships? They seem to be missing from the "Sample Data" section.

I recommend taking a second look at anything to do with "altitude" while fighters are in space. I like the idea of a "galactic plane", but it gets confusing when "ground attacking space-born objects".

Star Frontiers actually did away with altitude and used a 2D hex map to abstract movement. It worked quite well.

Hope you find this feedback constructive. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the feedback.  I'll try to get those edits made.
