Game 54501: Chris1977, laxen in 'All Seeing Eye'

Allow me to hand you your first SF victory! My guy was severely injured (and therefore slow) after being shot the first time, and with turns beginning to run out I was left with no choice but to chance my diminished action points on the next shot being a miss...<br /><br />More than happy to be your sparring-partner for some future missions should you be up for it.

Game 54456: Chris1977, Drakester, mirkiov in 'Egg Hunt'

Hi Chris. I&#39;ve had a look; the mission doesn&#39;t take into account whether any units escaped, it only checks that there is an egg on the escape hatch. <br /><br />Actually, it looks like there&#39;s a bug: if the player escapes with the egg as Drakester did, the egg disappears so it doesn&#39;t get counted! I&#39;ll fix it. I&#39;ll change it so that a player wins if they have unit that has escaped while carrying an egg.
Posted by SteveSmith 34 days ago


Game 54456: Chris1977, Drakester, mirkiov in 'Egg Hunt'

Hi @SteveSmith, I&#39;m puzzled as to why this was a draw: by my reckoning, Drakester, as the only player to have a unit escape with an egg, should have won.
Posted by Chris1977 34 days ago


Game 54456: Chris1977, Drakester, mirkiov in 'Egg Hunt'

Superbly well played, Drakester, particularly after fending off most of the Alien onslaught! I think you&#39;ve got this; just remember to select Escape when standing on the escape hatch. In the meantime, I&#39;ll set up what I think will be the only three-player showdown the three of us haven&#39;t yet done...

I am already 45 years old. I played Laser Squad with a friend on Sinclair ZX Specrtum while visiting my grandmother in the village. those were great times. This game allows me to take a few minutes away from the daily hustle and bustle. An little but important part of my life<br />I am currently unable to access patreon.com to support the project. But if Steve sends me the bank account or card number, I can try to make a transfer.

Good news everyone! Thanks to the generosity of two new patrons Dijon_p and Hansolo, Stellar Forces will be able to continue for now. I&#39;m very grateful to all the players who make monthly monetary contribution to the game. It still doesn&#39;t quite cover the costs, but I don&#39;t want SF to disappear so I&#39;ll make up the shortfall for the time being. Hopefully more new patrons will sign up which will ensure it can continue in the long term. If you enjoy playing SF, spread the word!

Quite the game of cat-and-heavily-armed-mouse in its second half, that! It did seem like the only way I could break the deadlock was by taking an almighty risk: I had no idea whether you had sufficient ammo/APs to finish me off once I was out in the open...

To get down to raw figures, it costs me $234.36/year to run, made up of $27/year for the domain and $17.28/month for the server. In total, current Patreon&#39;s contribute $7/month = $84/year, leaving a shortfall of almost exactly $150/year.

Game 54450: Drakester, Chris1977, mirkiov in 'Alien Containment'

Do you guys want me to set up Alien Containment again (same sides)? According to the mission description, the only side that should be destroying computers is Marsec; the Rebels are defending them and the Aliens are simply trying to get the hell out (move to the edge of the map and select Escape). So another side destroying computers meant that Marsec won by default.<br /><br />If I don&#39;t hear back by Monday I&#39;ll set up the next three-player mission.

The Future of Stellar Forces

Hi all,<br /><br />After some deliberation, I&#39;m afraid I may have to close down Stellar Forces. It will be a massive shame as it&#39;s been running for over 15 years now and I&#39;ve really enjoyed it as I hope others have too. Without wanting to go into details, my financial circumstances have changed. Nothing major, but it&#39;s getting very hard for me to justify the cost of running the game without cutting back other household outgoings. I don&#39;t want to sound mercenary, but unless I can bring in enough donations to cover the costs, I&#39;ll probably have to close it down in a couple of months.<br /><br />If it does have to close, let it be known that it&#39;s been a great adventure, and I never thought it would last this long. It was always my dream to run my own online game, and you could argue it has outlasted a lot other games which had far more resources and money behind them. I&#39;ve had some amazing exciting games and chatted to some great people. It&#39;s gone through many changes, some big, some small, but it&#39;s always managed to keep going thanks to the you, the hundreds of players who&#39;ve come and gone. And if the worst does come to the worst, maybe one day it will start up again.<br /><br />Thanks all,<br /><br />Steve

Game 54442: Chris1977, Drakester, mirkiov in 'Alien Hordes 3-Player'

I&#39;m in two minds about whether making the walls stronger would male things easier or harder. Maybe someone else has a view on this...
Posted by Chris1977 76 days ago


Game 54442: Chris1977, Drakester, mirkiov in 'Alien Hordes 3-Player'

Sorry, you&#39;re right. I missed the &quot;-3 Player&quot;, and I was looking at the standard Alien Hordes! You&#39;re also correct about the alien blood; it doesn&#39;t affect weak walls.<br /><br />Let me know if you want me to change any settings to see if it improves the mission.
Posted by SteveSmith 76 days ago


Game 54442: Chris1977, Drakester, mirkiov in 'Alien Hordes 3-Player'

The walls are set to &quot;weak&quot; according to the description, but none of them ever appeared to be destroyed. Come to think of it, though, the only explosions were caused by Aliens snuffing it, so are walls of any strength immune to explosions of this kind?
Posted by Chris1977 76 days ago


Game 54442: Chris1977, Drakester, mirkiov in 'Alien Hordes 3-Player'

Hi Chris, thanks for pointing out any errors. However, I&#39;ve had a look, and this doesn&#39;t seem to be the case? To clarify, there are 3 levels of wall strength - indestructible, strong (where a grenade etc.. will only destroy one layer of wall) and weak, where a grenade will destroy all walls within its vicinity. The walls in Alien Hordes are set to &quot;strong&quot;. <br /><br />Was there a case of a grenade exploding but not destroying any walls in this game? If so, I&#39;ll have a look into it.
Posted by SteveSmith 76 days ago


Game 54442: Chris1977, Drakester, mirkiov in 'Alien Hordes 3-Player'

That one seemed a bit one-sided, @mirkiov and @Drakester, and as you&#39;ll see I&#39;ve already left Steve some thoughts about how to even things up. That said, if you don&#39;t mind my pointing this out I do feel a temporary truce between your two sides would have enabled you to cull my numbers in pretty short order in the first couple of turns (cover is not plentiful outside the base). Anyway, I&#39;ll set up another three-player contest for us...
Posted by Chris1977 77 days ago


Game 54442: Chris1977, Drakester, mirkiov in 'Alien Hordes 3-Player'

Hi @SteveSmith, not that it&#39;s ruining the gameplay or anything (at least not from the Aliens&#39; perspective!), but the mission description says that walls are weak when they&#39;re actually set to &quot;indestructible&quot;. Not sure which way it should go (weak walls would offer the humans less cover, but also stop them getting quite so hemmed-in by Alien walking bombs, so it&#39;s hard to gauge which option would be better/worse), but either way whatever the walls do needs to match the description.

Game 54441: xeno, Chris1977, free palestine., petermock in 'The Assassins 2v2'

I remember we used to have mini competition with this mission with 200% creds and it became a game of hide and seek with Sterner which usually ended first turn. It went on for sometime until one side gained two victories in a row. You, me, Rabid and Socrates wasn&#39;t it? I thought let&#39;s try with 150% to see if each game would last longer! Everyone up for another, swop sides? Home and away kind of thing. Peter and I to hide Sterner this time.

Game 54432: Chris1977, Drakester, mirkiov in 'Moonrise'

Another close game - I think anyone could have won that! It&#39;s a tricky balancing act with this mission: obviously you have to defend yourself against the team that&#39;s trying to kill YOU, but in doing so you run the risk of handing points to the team that&#39;s trying to kill THEM. Anyway, onto the next match-up...

Posted by thrashbarg 90 days ago


Game 54431: thrashbarg, Chris1977 in 'Laboratory Attack'

Well played! The big blunder I made there was not making allowances for your guys&#39; potentially having strong armour - time and again I ended up the loser of the many face-to-face shootouts for that reason alone. I&#39;m so used to the REAL SF old hands favouring arms over armour that it never crossed my mind that a single well-aimed shot wouldn&#39;t &quot;do it&quot; each time. Still, one lives and learns, and as someone who&#39;s taken a long break from the fray, by the looks of things, you probably needed the win more than I did...

It was indeed.<br /><br />I&#39;ve thought for a long time Blasters should not have a 90% accuracy, countless times I&#39;ve seen them to be as accurate as a heavy laser. I&#39;m sure I posted this before. They are more like a 70% rating. I think Steve needs to check this out. I missed two 90% shots, yes it happens, but seems to occur far more often with a blaster.

Game 54331: Rost310, xeno, Gooey Blob, petermock in 'F.L.A.G. Heist 4-Player'

Well if that true then there is something wrong with the log as it says this, as quoted in the previous post: 18 Dec 2024 18:40 (Turn 27, Side 3): Will Smith (Rost310&#39;s #8) has been spotted!<br /><br />But I&#39;ve had this before, not sure what it is. Viewing angle differences between the game itself, where it doesn&#39;t trigger an opp shot because the angle degree is just out, but it does trigger a seen log as the criteria for that is just in, so therefore different angle degrees for the two? Opp fire could be 45 the log 50? For example.

Game 54331: Rost310, xeno, Gooey Blob, petermock in 'F.L.A.G. Heist 4-Player'

Certainly thanking my lucky stars I took the precaution of loading Sterner up with Super Heavy armour, even though it meant I barely had the APs to do anything each turn!<br /><br />Anyway, I&#39;m happy to fire up the next 3-player mission in numerical order for us all to play, provided you two are...?

Good idea; I don&#39;t think there&#39;s a good solution. Hopefully no-one will quit the mission halfway through in the future.

I&#39;m happy for it to stay as it is. In this particular game, which was relatively unusual, it seemed unfair, but Henri did also get a couple of my men, which pushed his VPs to 100, where me and Rost got 80, so if Henri hadn&#39;t also taken out some of my men, we would all have got 80 points, which seems fair to me. I accept that in this particular game though, it was particularly unfair on Rost.

I&#39;ve just had a look and it is a bug - every player gets the VPs for units not killed by a particular player, so that pushed Henry&#39;s Cat above 100. If I remove that though, what should happen if no player kills 10 units, or there aren&#39;t even 10 units left to kill due to the flood? Maybe last player standing wins, but then that encourages players to hide until the end.

Just had a look myself and that makes no sense, Sammus conceded and rather than the game continue all the victory points from his men dying went to you. Rather unfair, must be a bug.

Just a couple of minor thingies

There is another in fact, I thought about this one before and I&#39;m in a situation where I want to use an incendiary grenade to block a doorway. But if the enemy unit comes through on fire I find opp fire doesn&#39;t seem to work, so the unit on fire can just walk up and kill my unit without them firing in return. It somehow makes them immune fron opp fire. Now maybe my units are sadists and don&#39;t want to put them out of their misery, but even so if someone is on fire coming at you with a knife you are going to shoot them rather die.

Why is the sniper rifle when generated in colony missions only loaded with 7 rather 8. There was another but on second thoughts it probably makes sense.:)

Game 54362: Le Chat de Henri, Chris1977 in 'Superhuman: Moonbase Assault'

I played as the attacker vs Rabid recently, he completely destroyed me.. I find in the Moonbase missions that it is hard to destroy the computers. It&#39;s probably a better strategy to just try and kill all the defenders instead

Well played. I was playing just for pride by the end there - my original plan had been to ignore the computers completely and just go for kills, but when that didn&#39;t work out I didn&#39;t have many options besides making a belated assault on the IT after all...

Game 54367: Chris1977, Le Chat de Henri in 'Sterner's Revenge'

We can just see how it goes I guess. Hard to tell after a few practise games, time will tell!<br /><br />I wonder if the description for the emission matches the gameplay / victory conditions etc
