Fasa Renegade Legion Pdf
Renegade Legion is certainly one of those – the setting itself was a very strong one, and Centurion in particular is still one of the best scifi ground combat games I've played. 'Modernized' versions of the old RL games would probably do quite well – and the original games are starting to run out and becoming more and more expensive. This wiki covers FASA's Renegade Legion Universe; its history, technology, games and rules. Mac os x for macbook a1181.

Little is known about them, but many hypothesize that they are a silicoid species since they withstand the high heat levels of their home world. The Menelvagoreans are loosely allied with TOG. Naram (Greater Race) [ ] The Naram are a humanoid race, nearly identical to mainstream humanity, who are strongly allied with the Renegades. Despite the very similar appearance and capability of interbreeding with humans, the Naram have developed a very different culture with different values than TOG humanity.
Renegade Legion Resources This is a site I created during the course of PBEM campaign. Several of the regular posters on the Renegade Legion mailing list were involved, taking on the role of both Commonwealth and TOG Admirals or Generals. My own command was the 7th Commonwealth Fleet assigned to Rift county theatre of operations. Unfortunately the campaign was unfinished but it still provides a lot of details for anyone wanting to create an RL game in Rift or Yoventrov counties. These PDF files are provided for those of you who have need backups of your supplements but cannot obtain a second original copy as the game is now out of print.
There are many alien races involved, and stories often use elements such royal bloodlines, betrayal, and normally leave little room for a peaceful solution. The back story to the setting has the human race exploring and colonizing many worlds in the galaxy, and coming into contact with several important alien races. After the Snow Plague that eliminates most of the human race, Earth is invaded and conquered by the Kess Rith, a reptilian alien race that can best be physically described as half iguana and half centaur. Later the humans on Earth successfully rebel and drive off the Kess Rith by emulating the ancient Roman civilization.

The Ravenstar announcement-of-sorts was over here: They're WIP, due in November. 14 May 2011 9:27 p.m. PST. Well yeah, guess I should have put that in air quotes.
Sure, the prepainted mini market didn't work out (and who knew getting bought by Microsoft would have been a bad thing?:::rolls eyes:::) -- but the old FASA certainly 'got out of the game business' when it shut down. Just good to see they had the presence of mind to keep those IPs, and license them out. 14 May 2011 10:36 p.m. PST. Well, I will definitely be one of the first in line if he does put some ships out. I have tried to find proxies through Firestorm Armada, etc. But they just don't have the right feel.
I was asking initially because Mongoose's recent revival of the Noble Armada universe (in the form of ACTA Noble Armada, and the upcoming new edition of the RPG) got me to thinking of other old settings that deserve another shot at life. Renegade Legion is certainly one of those – the setting itself was a very strong one, and Centurion in particular is still one of the best scifi ground combat games I've played. 'Modernized' versions of the old RL games would probably do quite well – and the original games are starting to run out and becoming more and more expensive. Not like FASA ever pushed the RL games as hard as they did Battletech, and print runs weren't that large even at their peak.
The 2nd edition version was never officially released in the wild as far as I can tell, so the PDFs are out there, but without the vehicle sheets the game is unplayable. So, does anyone know of 2nd edition vehicle sheets around online? My second best option would be to buy one of the old copies of 1st edition box sets that are around, but that's a pretty far second. EDIT: I forgot to say I'm primarily looking for Renegade Legions Interceptor • • • • •. It seems like the whole Renegade Legion series uses that mechanic, but they updated it after Interceptor 1ed to change the flowchart to the internal damage mechanic from Leviathan. In the 2ed version that wasn't released for sale but is on the net, the ship internals are below the armour just like more armour and the squares (representing various internal components) that get hit using the template are what get hit.
Since the license was awarded to, FASA chose to use the systems with their own setting. [ ] The Renegade Legion series was made up of five, a, a, two computer games, with another two games, one board game and one computer game, announced but never published. [ ] With the exception of one of the board games and the two computer games, the Renegade Legion series was compatible on all levels. Board games [ ] Each of the boxed boardgames in the Renegade Legion series used a template-based mechanic to determine weapon damage. When a unit was hit by a weapon, an additional die roll was used to determine the hit location; a geometric template was placed on the ship diagram at that location, and the armor boxes beneath that template were marked as destroyed. Each weapon had a unique template; more- or less-powerful weapons would use larger or smaller versions of a standard template. The intent was to add depth to the game system beyond simply counting up damage points (as in FASA's ), as weapon type and hit location would now be important to game resolution.
Renegade Legion is a series of science fiction games that were designed by Sam Lewis, produced by, and published from 1989 to 1993. The line was then licensed to, a spin-off of the garage company Crunchy Frog Enterprises by Paul Arden Lidberg, which published one scenario book, a gaming aid, and three issues of a fanzine-quality periodical before reverting the license. Set in the, the series allowed gamers to play out the battles between the ' (TOG)', a corrupt galactic empire, and the ', an alliance of humans and aliens. The focus of the plot, like with many strategy games, is to present a long term conflict to enable as many individual situations and environments as possible. Most of Renegade Legion deals with large, military battles to be played on hexagonal grid mapsheets in a turn-based rules system. During a panel at RedCon95, FASA President Sam Lewis stated that the Renegade Legion series of games were originally designed for use with the Star Wars license.

Naram (Greater Race) [ ] The Naram are a humanoid race, nearly identical to mainstream humanity, who are strongly allied with the Renegades. Despite the very similar appearance and capability of interbreeding with humans, the Naram have developed a very different culture with different values than TOG humanity. Ritha (Lesser Race) [ ] The Ritha are one of three early alien species encountered by the early TOG Empire. TOG was extremely xenophobic during this period and quickly conquered all three alien species, forcing them to be settled across the Empire in small colonies designed to prevent them from acquiring enough genetic diversity to survive as a species. The plan worked. The only surviving members are rumored to wander the spacelanes as a sort of 'Space Gypsies' trying to eke out a living as nomadic traders.

In grav tank battles the solid metal rounds fired by main gun/Gauss cannon are not affected by shields, as well as Thor satellite attacks and nuclear detonations. Lasers, missiles, and infantry weapons are potentially stopped by shields, or hit with full impact depending if the shield was on or off at the moment of impact. Shields are also directional. A ship or tank can have very powerful shields in one direction, but weak or even no shields in another direction. Grav vehicles usually have weak shield below them to save weight, and simply fly very close to the ground to avoid being hit in this weak spot. Other games [ ] Role-playing Game [ ] was the name of the set in the Renegade Legion universe. While designed primarily as a stand-alone game, it could be integrated into the board games in the series, with stat conversions and guidelines for players who wished to do so.
Missile Weapons [ ] Military forces in the Renegade Legion setting also commonly use guided missiles of various types. High Energy Weapons (Plasma, Particle, etc.) [ ] Plasma and various variants of high energy weapons (Proton, electron, neutron particle guns, etc.) also exist with one of the best known types being the Thorium Plasma Projector. Weapons of Mass Destruction [ ] Various weapons of mass destruction also exist including the THOR satellite system (orbital kinetic-bombardment) and the HELL bomb, which instantaneously increases the local gravity to such an extent that nearby matter undergoes and explodes.
They were split up between Total Warfare and Techmanual. Rules for large naval ships and spacestations are included in the 2008 rulebook, Strategic Operations.

Oh wait: I did keep Prefect. It was the one title I never found an opponent for, and refused to part with it w/o playing at least once. Some day, some day 14 May 2011 4:43 p.m. PST. Question for Battle Works (and anyone else interested in the IP): Seriously -- short of reissuing (and, I assume, updating) all the various titles, what would you do with this property? Isn't there enough old FASA/C&C inventory out there for someone new who wants to get into this particular universe?

Based on an excellent but little-known FASA boardgame of the same name, Renegade is a ship-to-ship space combat simulation that was among the first games to feature turn-based gameplay combined with real-time simultaneous execution of combat. Choose between single-player and two-player hotseat, and create your squadron to take on increasingly difficult missions in the war between the Terran Overlord Government and non-human Commonwealth. A great variety of weapons and other gadgets to outfit your ships and a versatile custom ship builder module make up for the game's lackluster AI and repetitive missions.
Overall, a great game for fans of FASA's RPG universe, and a much better game than the mediocre flight-sim sequel Battle for Jacob's Star released years later. Review By HOTUD.

There were 3 variants under the old Ral Partha banner dependent on country of purchase. Legionnaire [ ] was the role-playing game (RPG) set in the Renegade Legion universe. It expanded the original Renegade Legion setting with three new alien races: the Menelvagoreans, the Vauvusar, and the Zog. The Inhabitants of the Renegade Legion Universe (Aliens & Humans) [ ] In the Renegade Legion Universe, aliens are designated as a greater or lesser race determined by whether the race had acquired spaceflight before first contact with other alien species. Most of the background on alien species in the Renegade Legion Universe can be found in the Legionnaire RPG book.
11 May 2011 5:33 p.m. PST. Sorry mate, cut 'n' pasted the wrong comment! Agree w/you wholeheartedly. I'm genuinely sorry now I sold off all my RL titles when I moved across the country a decade ago. At the time it seemed like a good idea (and I DID need both the money and the space), but even if I never got the chance to play them again, it would be sweet to still have them. Oh wait: I did keep Prefect.

The Lungdo now exist as a near-extinct species. Menelvagoreans (Lesser Race) [ ] The Menelvagoreans are large, hermaphroditic brutes standing over two meters tall and commonly weighing over 200 kilos. They come from a strange volcanically active hot world with a triple star system. Little is known about them, but many hypothesize that they are a silicoid species since they withstand the high heat levels of their home world. The Menelvagoreans are loosely allied with TOG.

Shields cannot run continuously, so instead they cycle on and off many times a second. A fixed percentage of attacks are rendered harmless due to their flicker rates, and higher quality shields have a better ratio of on-cycles to off-cycles when compared to low quality shields. However, shields have limitations beyond this.
