is ablaze, factories pump out toxic waste, and the oceans have retaken New York City, where despite everything else the rent, according to one luminescent billboard, is still way too damn high. It’s light on context and the story beats are few and far between. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.At least that’s how I’ve chosen to read the game’s short but satisfying arc. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.įor printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.įor PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Also we consider of cooperation with small companies or other creative people, who would be interested into designing/developing/selling the models. The game will come with one complete fleet as free stls. Miniatures, in Nanofleet scale (1:10000), perfect for 3D printing.Modules add extra rules, scanarios, ships and other game aspects. Modules – the game is designed as modular from the beginning.Disorganisation – the squadrons which are under fire start to lose coherency and the breaking enemy formations are very important aspect of the game.Formation system – the squadron can be in close or loose formation, both have bonuses and penalties.Orders, which are divided into basic (performed automatically) and advanced (commander’s test is required) add extra risk menagment aspect.Squadron commanders skills has crucial role! They are not determined only by the rank (which determines squadron size), but also commanders leading style.In short: buy commanders, choose one of a few possible pre-set composition for them and fill it with ships from different classes. Fast, but flexible fleet and squadron composition, which favours experiments, variety and new combinations.The battles can be resolved quicky without bogging into the details, as from game point of view the squadron is considered as whole.The typical mid size fleet can consists of a few dozens destroyers, cruisers and battleships and big fleets can consist of more than a hundred spaceships! First – it’s really mass scale wargame in the space opera style! Players lead the entire fleets and the basic unit is the squadron of huge warships.Stars and Steel is compact, modular and highly playable mass spaceship wargame!
