Sci-Fi Crossover 2005 "Battlestar to Babylon"
Once again, all your favorite starships
from movies and TV are thrown together in the Sci-Fi Crossover Universe do
do battle. In the 2005 battle, The Battlestar Atlantia and
her rag tag fleet have made contact with Earth.....the Earth of Babylon
5 to be specific. The Atlantia has made initial contact
with Earthforce ships and the last few ships in the rag-tag fleet are
about to go through
the jump gate when, their pursuers show up, the Klingons (hey it is my
Crossover Universe, deal with it). Earthforce and League
reinforcements are on the way, but will they arrive in time to allow the
rag tag fleet and the Atlantia survive?

The Set Up:
Both sides set up on opposite short sides of the table. One side has a jump gate towards one edge with the Rag Tag fleet headed towards it and the Battlestar and Earthforce ships covering. The Klingons start from the other side of the table as they move to attack. Full Thrust rules are used with the revisions from Fleet Books 1 and 2 along with some of the playtest rules for Grasers and fighters.

The Fleets: The control sheets I created are available for your use, just click on the links to see the gifs. All I ask is that you keep the blurb on the bottom showing they are a 'Star Ranger' production. Zip file of all the 2005 fleets
The Klingon Empire (Star Trek Original Series) For fun I had Konami Cylon BaseStars on the table when the players showed up and then pulled out the Klingon miniatures only after they players had chosen sides. |

The Colonials (Battlestar Galactica - 1978) The Battlestar starts on the table, following the Rag Tag fleet towards the Jump Gate
Rag Tag Fleet The SSDs for the ships in the rag tag fleet were just freighters and other auxiliary ships from Fleet Book 1. These ships were run by the GM and not controlled by the players. They were headed directly towards the jump gate with a velocity of 3, the first one 6 inches away from the gate, the next 6 inches behind it, and the third another 6 inches back Rising Star - Starliner Mineral Ship - Heavy Freighter Colonial Movers - Medium Freighter
Earthforce (Babylon 5) This ships start on the table
Reinforcement Fleets Two players are the Earthforce and League reinforcements that will arrive on later turns. These players can choose the fleet they want, but the more powerful the fleet, the later it will arrive. Their choices were kept secret until the turn they arrive.
