Update from Little Wargaming Worlds!

I’m very close to finishing a new add-on for Stars & Lasers — this time diving into the universe of Battlestar Galactica.

This will be the third add-on in the series, following on from the Star Wars: Armada-inspired rules and the Star Trek expansion. It’s been great fun translating these iconic settings into the system, each with its own feel and challenges.

This add-on covers many of the core ships from the series, with both Colonial and Cylon forces represented, aiming to capture the feel of the setting on the tabletop.

One of the key features is a simple campaign system focused on protecting the civilian fleet — humanity’s last hope. Every decision matters, as keeping those ships alive becomes just as important as winning the battle itself.

Battlestar Galactica also brings a very different style of combat, with far more fighters and missile exchanges than the previous add-ons. Because of that, I’ve had to introduce some new rules to handle larger numbers of small craft and incoming fire, while still keeping the game flowing smoothly.

The Battlestar Galactica add-on is currently being reviewed and discussed over on my Little Wargaming Worlds Discord, and the feedback has been shaping the final version.

If you’d like to see previews, join in the discussion, and even help influence the final tweaks, come and join us on the Discord — it’s the best place to follow development as it happens. You can find the Discord link under the community Tab on this site.

If you’re interested in fleet actions, hard decisions, and that constant sense of pressure BSG does so well, keep an eye out — we’re nearly there.

More to come shortly!
