![]() August 21, 2014 - 1:13am | Does anyone know if the ship depicted on the SF box front was written up for KH rules? I've assumed over the years that it's some sort of armed shuttle, but I wonder whether it might be something else. It'd be fun to draw the rest of it ![]() |
![]() August 21, 2014 - 5:55am | I always assumed it was just an air car. It's almost too small to be a shuttle. And the basic shape and details visible matche that of the picture on the aircar chit. Although looking at the print of the image I have hanging on the wall in my office, there is quite bit of wreckage to the left, maybe a little more than you might expected from an aircar. However, I'd still go with the aircar theory, but that's my take. Ad Astra Per Ardua!

![]() August 21, 2014 - 7:45am | It would be nice to find a picture of an intact Aircar for the SF Wiki. Oh well! For a lack of a better picture. LOL |

![]() August 21, 2014 - 5:34pm | better picture. LOL
It would be nice to find a picture of an intact Aircar for the SF Wiki. Oh well! For a lack of a Open the aforementioned cover, there's an air car on the first page. Not the same design, but it's an air car nonetheless. ![]() |
![]() August 21, 2014 - 10:12pm | That how I see an air car, Shadow Shack. The craft on the box cover, however, seems too big to be an air car. |
![]() August 23, 2014 - 8:35am | Whay about a life boat? The bundled adventure would suggest that. Side note the bubble hatch reminds one of the book description of a ships launch though these are not outfitted for atmo reentry. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |

Perhaps being a launch is why it is crashed? I dont think a launch has the heat shielding for reentry, but I would buy it being a life boat or an air car but... I think in the spirit of the game that it should not be an air car but rather some vehicle that ca,me down from orbit. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
![]() August 23, 2014 - 7:29pm | If not an aircar howabout an air transport? Yes I know those were not in the original book, only in Zebulon's Guide. But it stands to reason it would have come up eventually anyways, they have ground trucks and hover trucks in the original book do they not? In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
August 29, 2014 - 2:12pm | Why not an air Van or Truck? That way it could be bigger. Or Maybe ... an Air RV. The bombing starts in five minutes. |
![]() August 30, 2014 - 5:58am | How about an air truck version of the explorer ground vehicle? I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
![]() August 30, 2014 - 11:57am | I always assumed it was a launch from Crash on Volturnus...maybe a pretty beefed up one to sell the box set, as a pod like the one we see on Tatooine wouln't make me want to adventure much in 5th grade...hahaha. My brother and I always thought the people that jumped out of it are the coolest ever. If I was marooned on Volturnus, yeah, I'd hope they'd be with me...![]() |
![]() August 30, 2014 - 9:17pm | One thing is for sure, it was no fun climbing out of that vehicle...those cockpit hand-holds lead past the edge of the cliff. |
![]() September 4, 2014 - 10:56am | not an extreemly high cliff lol ----------------------------------------------- |
![]() September 4, 2014 - 5:01pm | High cliff or not, there's nothing to plant a foot on when you climb down. |
![]() September 4, 2014 - 11:08pm | I always assumed they came down from boulders out of frame to the right. -iggy |
![]() September 6, 2014 - 7:08am | Well like I said, no matter how they got there getting out was a challenge. Cockpit with handholds leading to empty space. Fire behind the cockpit where there is actual solid ground for footing. It was lose/lose either way. |

![]() September 6, 2014 - 11:46am | Don't blame the GM. He's just using the module because his work-a-day job limits his time.

![]() September 6, 2014 - 4:54pm | I've been reading Darths and Droids and have railroading on the brain right now. The players in Darths and Droids are constantly derailing the GM's plans and so he railroads them. They of course call him on it. -iggy |
