Starmada Captain's Companion

ADD TO WISHLIST >

STARMADA™ is a tabletop game of starship combat. At its most basic level, players take command of space fleets in a general attempt to reduce each other to just so much space junk. At its most advanced, the game can breathe life into any science fiction background players might imagine.

The CAPTAIN’S COMPANION is a supplement for the Universal Game of Starship Combat, detailing the universe of the Imperial Starmada and its major adversaries.

In addition to background information and 35 starship status displays (SSDs) this book introduces several new rules, weapon traits, and starship systems. Errata and clarifications are provided which update the STARMADA CORE RULEBOOK to version 1.2. Finally, we present some initial thoughts on tactics that hopefully will inspire more such discussion in future publications.

New systems and optional rules include:

  • Escorts
  • Fast Attack Craft
  • Jammers
  • Random Damage Allocation
  • Tenders
...and much more!

The CAPTAIN’S COMPANION is not a stand-alone product; you will need a copy of the STARMADA CORE RULEBOOK (MJG-0160).

Don't forget! 3d printing files for all of the starships included in this product can be purchased separately.

You've got me very confused. This is a new product that says it updates the Starmada Core Rulebook. But the store entry for the Core Rulebook says that it's not the current version of the game and that new players should start with Unity Edition.

What is the current, latest edition of the game and which supplements are designed for it (or work without needing modification)?

Thank you for noticing the oversight! The product you were looking at was the Admiralty Core Rulebook from 2007, the listing for which had not been changed in some time. The current Core Rulebook (from 2024) can be found at the link above and copied here: https://www.wargamevault.com/product/472034/Starmada-Core-Rulebook

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
