Dream Pod 9 is happy to announce the release of high-quality electronic format ebooks for the Heavy Gear Classic Roleplaying & Tactical Game publications. Made possible by the team of Michael Butt (Project Manager) and Brad Fischer (Roaring Mouse Graphics) who converted the old Macintosh Pager Maker files into modern Adobe format. A big thank you to Michael and Brad for taking on the massive effort to Revitalize all the old Dream Pod 9 Heavy Gear products.
"Tug-87¸ return to your station immediately¸" ordered the CEF controller. Calvert opened her eyes¸ squinting at a small Remora-class tug that had broken away from the pack of support craft lined up outside the shipyards. Refusing to answer the hail¸ it abandoned the standard space lanes and fired its maneuvering jets¸ orienting itself towards the immobile destroyer. The controller repeated his demand that the ship halt¸ but instead it accelerated¸ veering towards the impotent warship. Point-defense lasers stabbed out at the craft ineffectually.
"Acquire that target!" shouted Calvert¸ but already the data scrolled onto her display¸ courtesy of Maxwell-class gunner Soldier Krupp. "Fire!" For an instant the Arclight and the tug were connected by a stream of particles traveling at relativistic speeds. The rogue ship was reduced to a cloud of superheated debris¸ clattering harmlessly against the destroyer's hull.
The interstellar invasions performed by the Colonial Expeditionary Forces could never have been possible without their massive fleets. These are now stationed everywhere in the Earth and Caprice systems¸ reading to strike again at the former colony worlds. Spaceship Compendium II: CEF/Capricetakes a look at the invaders' ships and the infrastructure that supports them in the Loki star system. This sourcebook contains:
A detailed look at the main CEF Gateship type¸ the massively armored Tortoise-class; Spacecraft for both military and civilian operations; Caprician launch facilities; Detailed deckplans and maps of several ships and facilities; Sample campaign seeds; New equipment and NPCs.
