Now that I see that Star Trek uses the Flight Path system like X-wing (which used from another game, which I have no idea what it was) what other license would you like to see?

I was thinking of Battlestar Galactica. I think it would be awesome to fly some vipers around. I guess the problem is they don't have many variety of ships to use, but still would love to recreate some of the BSG battles.

So what other movies/tv shows/books would be great or you would like to see using the Flight Path system?

Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.

Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?

Well, not really a book or something, but I was thinking that one could probably get a pretty good naval game with flight path- throwing in raking fire and other naval stuff for flavour.

I may be dating myself a little bit but...Carwars. Was a really fun game that was played with hand made model cars and the game was a lot like Mad Max. I think that it would work well with a flight path system.

I would love to see a StarCon game, if only so that I could play as the Pkunk and hurl insults at my opponent.

Loser. Geek. Baby. Dodo. Jerk. Dweeb.

Seriously though, it could probably work with some tweaking and overhauling of certain ships.

Well the system is a re-imagining of Wings of War, whose creators have just now gone on to make a naval game using the system. Problem is, that whole system is soooooo dry, and it took FFG to inject actual soul and depth to it, via upgrades, pilots, etc... as a WoG former player, it really only dabbled in those things, and suffered for it.

I think BFG would benefit from a set series of manuever chits.

Many people have though that instead of Star Trek, we should have got a capitol ship version of Star Wars.

I was thinking BAttle star Galactica, or frigate, Destroyer and cruiser classes of ships from the MMO Eve online.
