You Can Counter On It

Ironduke has released a new set of counters for his Wing Commander TacOps paper game project. Ironduke notes: "the new ship counters feature a specific designation (like "Bravo 1," to better keep track of your ships) as well as their required Target Roll in the upper right corner." The new collection includes Ferrets, Epees, Rapiers, Sabres, Broadswords, Sartha, Drakhri, Jalkehi, Grikath and asteroids. Download it here (1.8 mb) This is one of my favorite fan projects - we're going to have to play it in person this year at DragonCon!

We posted the Korean version of the Wing Commander movie poster a few days ago... and now bushes and Demonique were kind enough to translate it for us! Here's the text (poster graphic below):

It's amazing that there are Wing Commander fans all over the world who can help each other translate things like this!
