Simple Starship Combat

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Suggested Price $2.00

A simplified replacement for Chapter 9 of the Starfinder Core Rulebook, intended for groups who aren't interested in poring over starship stats and who do not currently enjoy starship combat, but aren't ready to eliminate it entirely from their campaigns.

Combat rules are just 2 pages (1 rules page, 1 actions page). Rather than taking separate roles and fighting over who gets to be captain and who gets stuck as the science officer, players work together to decide on the actions of their ship. Hits are intentionally powerful, tactical movement is rewarded, shields are assumed to be calculated into the existing AC and never need rebalancing, and combat is ideally resolved in just a few rounds.

This also reduces the need for understanding or caring about the systems and features of any given ship. Your players no longer have to worry whether their power unit is strong enough, nor whether they have a turret or a cannon, and so on. The sheer size of a ship is enough to clue them in on whether they would be wiser to fight or take flight.

For some, this may be too simple. For others, this is a quick and fun way to have starship combat
in their space game without also learning a complex new system of rules, and building and
optimizing starships piece by piece in order to stay alive out in the far reaches of space.

If you find Starfinder ship combat problematic, this is for you!

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. 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. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. 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.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
