Universal Rules of Engagement in outer space

1. Ships too distant to engage cannot engage in combat.
2. All ships even pirate and evil alien ships must identify themselves when called to do so over open space if able at all to communicate otherwise they must allow themselves to be destroyed or be taken prisoner.
3. All star ships will not fire on any other ship unless fired upon, unless an open state of war exists between pirates and evil space aliens.
4. All evil space alien and pirate vessels will break rule number 3
5. A starship is free to retreat when fired upon once out of a quadrant it is not a fair target.
6. Evil Space Aliens and pirates will take pot shots at star ships fleeing a quadrant.
Combat Sequence
Int Roll (1d100) Push the random number button on your calculator and multiply by 100 do this for side A and side B or as many sides as there are whichever side is higher gets the initiative and gets to go first. They will all go in order highest to the lowest in order of Initiative values no ties the first one to roll the number of a tie goes before the next.
Let say A comes up 77 and B comes up 35 A the side selects a defense or weapon from its page or sheet or card or whatever your keeping your records on. Then side A declares what other action he/she is taking.
Then side B selects a weapon or defense.
Then side B declares what other actions he/she is taking. Then side B declares what other action he/she is taking. Note to Refs You must resolve the modifiers between the defenses and the weapons if any and then push the random button on the calculator and multiplying by 100 again and if any hit there targets. Then you calculate the damage by pushing the button on your random calculator and multiplying by 10 and adding it together for as many times as the number before the d10 says.
Then you repeat into the next round until one or the other starship breaks off the attack or is destroyed or captured.

Just something I thought I might mention

An observation
By Michael Murtaugh
It would seem that any country supplying the Tali Bane weather be it Red China or Russia or whoever would be doing something utterly ridicules because they would have to fight them next.

Sunset in a realm away By Mike M

Outer Space Out Land Drama on the Planets 678

MTC Email News Service Out land Space Report
By Mike Murtaugh

Planet Flox Report
Flox government officials met today to discus
The construction of a forth agro capable space station around the planet.
The discussions are in there third week.

Planets Gloth 1 And Gloth 2 Report
Planets Gloth 1 and Gloth 2 are still at a state of war over which shall control the entire Golth system for it is said in their book “ The two should be one” to the peoples of the Golth that means they must control both planets. It really seems to be a misinterpretation if you ask this reporter it seems if they followed their traditions and less of the literal translation it might help.

Planet Heloth Report
Heloth miners were threatening to strike again local union leaders and the Zortos Mining company went into negotiation, however it does appear that a settlement will be reached with miners having more time to spend away time from Heloth itself. Only coming in shifts to the planet.

Plant Ilioth Report
Ilioth was forced to close some of its attractions due to budget cuts and some of the low gravity pools had to be closed down. However planet venders are hoping tourism will pick up by mid season.

Planet Jolock Report
Some pirates held out at Jolock authorities apprehended them and discovered they were working with the Zathox on a plot that may include the Frelock the Worms and the Glog to invade the Out Land of Space. We will be following this closely and keeping you informed.

Planet Logog Report
The Scientist of Logog are researching new means of inter galactic travel at this time there are a number of professors on Logog who believe that inter galactic travel may be possible for intelligent life.

Planet Mic Report
Mic had a recent holiday celebration and festival some of the celebrants became rowdy and evolved out of hand and had to be placed in a temporary holding facility over night. Otherwise all went well.

Planet Nivoc Report
There is no union for the workers on Nivoc. They go down in their high pressure suits to an atmosphere
similar to Venus to Fuel ships that fly through space.

Planet Ovak Report
Rebellion has come to Ovak the peasants of Ovak are rising up to speak out against their government.
They want individual freedoms. They are demanding dignity, humanity and freedom and human rights.
Ovaks garden palaces are being over run.

Planet Report Poldos
Poldos crime rate is soaring as fear from invasion from Glog and Worm and Frelock and Zathox spread as with the rest of out land space. However remember in the words of Franklin D. Roosvelt “ The only one thing we have to fear is fear itself”

“Have a Happy Halloween Everyone”

Add modifiers for crews aboard ships as specified by referee.

There is a –10 modifier if a field is configured.

1 Field Parsec Mine 0 area of effect 10,000^2 kilometers *
Robot Ship Probe virtually unlimited, based on fuel


 Yes a parsec mine does not effect a entire parsec of space that much but it is placed in one and its immediate effect is within 10,000^2 kilometers of space.




Use your imagination to come up with crew and ship scenarios that make the game interesting everything can be played on computer now days but if you want to relax and enjoy a game with a referee and some friends Mutual agreed upon modifiers and randomization’s work best.

MIx it up with Mind Bot

Mind bot characters Combat


I really don’t like to do this, but I guess it has to be done at some point combat for the Mind bot role-playing game. Well obviously mind bot role-playing game is an easy going game so the idea is to avoid combat at all cost.

However if it does come up here is an example:

A Zertron monster attacks Dwelx. All effort to communicate have failed and it is still attacking. Dwelx waives it off, but it is still showing its fangs.

Now begins the first round since there is no randomization for surprise which the Zetron would randomize 1 to 100 for and so would Dwelx the higher number would go first Dwelx has a 70 and the Zentron has 40
Dwelx randomizes a 35and the Zentron a 55 so the Zetron doesn’t do anything in the first round.

The player playing Dwelx tells the referee he is upholstering his laser pistol. That will take a full round.

They randomize for initiative again the Zetron randomizes 60 and Dwelx randomized 58

Dwelx still has the initiative. The Zertron Monster is still showing its fangs and snarling terribly.

The player playing Dwelx tells the referee he will shoot the Zetron monster he is at near point blank range so there are no modifiers.

He fires he randomizes a 65

He of course has his weapon set to stun. He then randomizes his 2d10 and its 18 of course this is only temporary to the Zetron. The referee says “O.K. It has been stunned it goes away.”

A Referee can decide weather to use Structure Points only or all the traits before the end of a player career as that particular character. Even then the character can be redeveloped. Mutual agreement between the referee and the players is always the main goal and the enjoyment of the game.

Gab About is about current events

If anyone would like to post a comment about a current event feel free. I will be posting pictures to this blog as much as I can and updating it form time to time. the pictures may just be sunsets or something. I can't promise to much hard news as it has been a while since I've pounded a real beat as a reporter but when I get in my rythm look out.
