Starship Combat News

Starship Combat news is the best place on the internet for space gamers. It is packed with information on the state of starship combat simulation. I found SCN several years ago and it is one of the pages I visit on a regular basis for information on new games, resources for old games, miniature news, and industry news.


Space gaming like many other genres has a fair number of free rule sets on the web. What makes SCN so valuable is that all games free or for purchase are given equal treatment. There are updates about each game when avail-able and web links to the manufacturers sites. Some of these games have been out for a very long time and you won’t find them on many other sites. SCN keeps track of broken links and often tracks down where a particular site has moved.

This has been a great help as many authors have moved from the free Yahoo type sites to sites with their own domain names.The upcoming games list provides information about games in develop-ment as pictured for the Dark Realms Game hostile Stars. Some of these games have been in devel-opment for a great while and without SCN they would certainly have less visibility. You can see that the site keeps a good re-cord and provides poten-tial Starship Captains with great intel.
There is a section for out of print games as well with the last known information available on them. Games occa-sionally come back from the dead. At SCN the old archive doesn’t disappear it is simply reactivated and added to the current games list from the out of print list. This is a great feature as you can track the overall history of the game.


There are several feature pieces and a gallery of miniatures as well. The comprehensive list of miniature suppliers is updated as new models become available. It is a great one bookmark spot on the net for all the starship minia-tures manufacturers. The availability and pictures in this section as well as web links make it a great resource.


Best of all is the community. SCN has a vibrant and active forum community of gamers and developers sharing ideas, scenarios and design ideas. The forums alone are enough for me to visit the site on a daily basis.


Starship Combat News is the best space gaming site on the web. Take it from this long time Space Captain; this is the port of call you want to call home.
