Might be nice to have a section in stars must know about how battle board works, guys like me who haven't played too many games and haven't played for a few months get a little forgetful.

Here is a link to good article.

An interesting detail I didn't know is gattlings fire at full power even if target 2 squares away. (all other beams lose 10% of their firepower over their maximum range)

Would be interesting to work out why ships sometimes don't close into range in battle even with standard orders. I suspect part of it is to do with a different ship somewheres on battlefield having different orders based on memory of an old battle testbed for game I played.


Great idea! I didn't know about the gatling damage either. I tend to ignore the 10% power drop in calculations anyway.
