The Zhodani Base

With the suggestion for a new hex style, I need a way to produce images of gas giants. I can do this (for free) with the gas giant plugin for GIMP.

With the help of some free Gimp plugins (Planet Render and Star Scape) I have made the image below. While it might not be as good as the plugins from Flaming Pear, it is still cool that You can make some nice images using free software.

If I would have tried a bit harder, I might have been able to do something that would have looked a bit better. The image below is just to show You what is possible. (The image has also been compressed to a jpeg image so that it will load faster. This compression have added some distortion as well…)

I was wondering after making some replacement counters for my copy of Panzer Blitz, have you considered making the rendering machines able to also output 1/2″ counters?

Then one could make new/additional counters for games like Snapshot, Mayday, Astroid, Azhanti High Lightning, and Belter.

I tried making them using the 1″ and 2″ option then reducing them accordingly but the graphics come out too small to be usefully recognizable.

I’m sure when I visited the site a couple of years back there was a link somewhere to a piece of software that generated customised LBB covers, but I can’t find it anywhere now.

Is it still available?

It is now possible to create Your own Striker Counters using the “Tank and Heavy Weapons Counters Rendering Machine“.

As a bonus, it is also possible to create PanzerBlitz counters.

It is now possible to build Your own new units for FFW or for othergames using the “Land Unit Counters Rendering Machine“.

Maybe someone has any ideas about some generic wargame rules?

For all of those of You who wanted to make a small dotmap of a sector, just like the dotmaps of the dotmap version of the space atlas.

You can now do it with the new webbased dotmap generator.

Hello.
What program do you use to make the nice dot map.
Bye.

Try out the Major Race Profiler.

The Ine-Givar Wall of Freedom is now open.

Every now and then the starport officials at Cipango downport has to arrest traders from outside the glorious Consulate that for some strange reason wants to scribble on the warehouse walls. It is not a big problem since our starport officials always knows about it in advance, and can prevent it. We have seen images from the chaotic starports in “the Imperium” where the walls of the warehouses are covered with scribblings. That is not what we want at Cipango downport, but in order to let the traders leave some personal messages on a wall, we have now set up a wall where the traders can scribble for free, without being arrested.

In honor of the heroic freedom fighters, we have decided to call it “The Ine-Givar Wall of Freedom”
