Mel and I have made the tools - the rest is up to the community at large

I can't remember, have you for an account on KDY? If you do, I can hand the cards to your account so you can make updates rather than having me change em.

I'm probably not going to impose a pre-determined arbitrary organisation system, but I will make it so that users can organize content through a customization taxonomy system (tags and categories that they define). Basically you'll be able to organize things how you want instead of being constrained to what I or anyone else thinks things should be organized. The only exception to this is the "Genre" system and that's because many parts of the system require delineation of content between genres, mostly to avoid cross-contamination. There's a lot of Star Trek and WW2 themed content on KDY, which is great, but I want to enforce silos there.

update: I got pagination working on the asset icon picker. Next up: the ability to edit an icon asset.

No worries - what color scheme are you thinking?

UPDATE!

Added. I used black background and gold foreground. If you want another color scheme, let me know.

Seconding what Dras said in my own way - and I'm also removing the medium as that doesn't really matter - what I'm about to say can be said for painting on canvas, or body art. Airbrush is a tool, like any other. To go for a carpentry analogy: You can use a drill press, or you can use a plunge router. They can both get you mortises. Even with my airbrush there are times I need to use a bristle brush, and likewise there are times when I used a bristle brush where an airbrush would've made life easier and possibly given me the same result for less effort. I think it's a graduation thing. I do feel that there is a certain point in one's painting career where getting an airbrush will open up doors, but there are ways around not having one.

I don't say this lightly: I do think that anything other than Smooth Fine Detail Plastic (previously known as FUD) is a waste of money.

Me too...

One can find 8.5x11 poster board, specifically binders board, on Amazon. Spray adhesive and a good sharp knife and you're good to go.

Viscount or the Raddus, for the Raddus, though I'm not opposed to ffg inventing something either, as others have said. I wouldn't mind the lukrehulk, but I really want to see both the CIS and republic to come in as factions.

I'm glad that you were able to get it in the high def acrylate. When I ordered mine, they said it couldn't be printed part way through production.

send the file over anyways, I can open it in photoshop to see what it looks like.

transparent PNG with a white foreground merged into the background of the forum page?

Works for me; Got any ideas for a symbol?

I agree with previous comments. I don't mind adding the keyword, but I think the wording needs to be clearer than even GhostofNobodyInParticular. There are a lot of possible implications to a squadron suddenly morphing into a ship while defending. I can't think of any off hand, but I'm sure there are upgrade cards that would suddenly get VERY wonky.

Hey @Crabbok I saw that one is your vague projects is a Homebrew expansion for Armada. I know you don't have an account on KDY, but I invite you take make one and have a look around to see if there are any capabilities that KDY lacks that you'd want added in order to help with your project.

Oh - one more thing: I would change Escort to be optional instead of required, at the defenders choice (not sure on how I'd word it, but perhaps someone might be able to help with that).

2) Phantoms. I think Cloak is not well done in vanilla. I think Cloak currently is what SLAM should be, and I think Cloak should be more about making a squadron harder to hit. I'd also be okay with Phantom getting Grit 2 (same as Grit except that you need three squadrons to lock it down rather than just 2).

Just like my previous thread about Upgrades, let's talk about squadrons and their keywords: Pick at least one of the following. In all instances, share your reasoning on how it would benefit the game without resorting to "because it sucks, etc" (If I can ask "how is that the case?" Or "why do you think that?" You haven't explained as much as you could have) 1) Name a squdaron card you wish didn't exist and why. 2) Name up to three squadrons you want nerfed, buffed, or altered. Explain how and why. 3) build at least one new squadron card and explain what benefit it would have on gameplay. 4) constructively critique the contribution of a previous post in the thread beyond "yes good" or "this idea sucks". (Again, if I can ask "what makes you think that?" You haven't explained yourself well enough).

I will be putting another thread up about squadrons, keywords, etc. (Don't worry, I have lots of thoughts there :P)

We seem to be veering off the train a bit. There are plenty of threads going where we discuss the merits and shortcomings of Yavaris, Rieekan, and so on. If we're going to continue discussing them, let's go with discussing potential solutions. For example: if you have an idea as to how to alter any of the above: Give it a half dozen games and let us know how they go.
