I’m a bit of a one trick pony. This is a SEAL (Scientifically Enhanced Assault Legionnaire), the best Human Coalition can offer. Many rumors surround them being kidnapped children to lab monsters. It doesn’t help that SEALs never remove their armor in public.

The neat thing is this model is support free (though requires glue). I also made it completely in the slicer cause Blender is scary.

TLDR: Link at the bottom to updated stuff..

Been a lot of updates to Sidus Front and The Coalition Faction.

I've simplified text to help process. Ability Tests are now called Level Tests to streamline the roll. Same mechanic, roll Level in D6 to beat a Difficulty Value.

Increased Army Credits to 300 pts from 150 pts for learning the game. That'll let players experience Teams and Upgrades if they want.

Added a lot of text to the Coalition Faction and tried to create a faction Icon.

The Icon represents earth in the middle with the moon. The 8 colored orbs represent the 8 Sol Colonies. The pointed 8 pointed star represents humanities spread.

I've removed the Frigate and Responder unit for now. They seemed problematic to some people. They'll probably be back in an "expansion".

Here's the link to the latest stuff. Let me know what you think.

EDIT: New link at the bottom with updated rules. Attack Ranges have increased

Hey Everyone! I'm looking for playtesters for my new game - Sidus Front!

Back in the 90s, we used to have "Shareware", free demos that got passed around usually on CD. I'm continuing the tradition with Sidus Front Shareware Edition! I'll continually work on this with an eventual "Full Rulebook" available.

Feel free to pass this around but I'd love some feedback. Basicially, the system is d6 equal to the model's level to try beating a target number. The plan is to allow scaling from Skirmish (Teams and Squads) to Companies and Battalions using the same rules.

I've included core rules and a Faction called The Coalition.

The Coalition is a human government attempting to reunite humanity scattered across the galaxy for good or bad reasons. Combat infighting is common as members are used against each other in attempts to curb strength. Luckily, The Coalition expansion policies often put it at odds against other forces and allow members a common enemy to focus on.

Here's the google link to the pdf. Let me know what you think!

Any suggestions on how to make swords for the defender guys?

Hey Everyone, here's a Sidus Front update.

I'm working on Sidus Front to scale from Teams and Squads (for skirmish) to Company and Battalions (for wargame) using all the same rules.

Sidus Front will be a Simple Wargame in design and complexity. It will utilize a pool of D6 and roll above a difficulty to determine success. It will use a Level system per each Unit to determine the amount of Ability Dice to roll. While Units will have individual Traits, most upgrades are performed at the army level, meaning most upgrades are applied to whole classes of units instead of just the individual model. This allows a reduction of mental overhead during the match.

I've attached the Core rules and a few units planned so far for the Human Coalition, a galactic order to unify humanity across the galaxy. There are several inspirations, mostly from my 90s childhood. These units will be refined and more are planned.

TLDR: Working on another Simple Wargame. If you've grabbed Aftermath or Cutthroat, you kinda know what to expect.

Sidus is supposedly Latin for a group of stars. The easier ones such as Solar and Nova were already taken unfortunately. Stupid Gacha games *kicks rock*

Anyway!

In Sidus Front, players will choose between 3 Factions to fight other players. Thanks to drama Players can fight the same faction in universe. You can probably guess my inspiration. I have 1 sorta thought out right now called the Coalition - A government that plays Star Trek on paper but is really imperialistic and tyrannical.

This game will differ from my other releases as I will release premade units instead of create your own i normally feature. I also plan on doing 3-5 scales of game play (Squad - Battalion essentially).

Mechanically, its simple. Roll a number of dice provided by the units level and try to get above a difficulty value (usually 1+Variables). Wanna jump a 5" gap? DV 5. Attack a Level 5 Unit as a Level 1? Roll 1 d6 and try to get a 6.

Let me know what you think!

Not Affiliated with Fat Dragon Games. They’re actually a competitor (if they know I exist) but I want all ships to rise.

Supportless fdm mechs, terrain and gamebook for $15 right now!

Here's another class I'm working on atm. I'm calling it the Rogue for now. I want to make a bit Indiana Jones. Will need to make it less heroic and more horrific.

Doing 3d6 instead of D20 and all dice are resolved using d6.

Added Advantage and Disadvantage from D&D. It makes thinks easier on my brain (stupid math)

3 Groups of NPC Reaction with Presence modifier effecting. Pretty people get better first contact. (That might be cool for a Space Borg game hmmm)

Shields provide bonus to Defense rolls.

Magic is cast through Knowledge to make it more sciency.

All dice will use modified d6 (I just like it). Most rolls have been converted from other dice (like d20 or d4) to use a variation of d6 (3d6 or d3) respectfully.

This creates the issue of Crits and Fumbles. I'm going to try using rolling 3d6 DR + 5 for Crits and DR - 5 for Fumbles. Is that too much?

I'm also using Knowledge Ability from Cy_Borg to run Spells cause I want spellcasting to be a science.

90s inspired Troopers with optional shoulder pads for the 80s folks.

Great gap fillers

I’d like to add my own resin supports to print fdm. Guessing I’ll just need to import into Reain2FDM but I’d love to skip a step or not beholden to an add-on.

Going a bit more "Snowy" with this one. Making a wargame called Solar Hawks with the 90s vibe I never seem to get tired of. Stupid nostalgia.
