Welcome to the General Discussion Thread for the Ion Age!
Like it says on the tin, please feel free to discuss or ask questions regarding the Ion Age. Hopefully we have enough knowledgeable members available and willing to respond to inquiries in a supportive capacity, [if not official]
Future edits coming of course, but I wanted to kick off a General Discussion thread to essentially receive topics and inquiries that don't necessarily have a specific focus [yet!] as we're starting fresh. I'd also like to give new and old members alike a place to post their recommendations for the group at large, so suggestions ARE welcome!
A small list of topics I'd like to eventually address (and will hopefully begin their own threads soon) include but are not limited to...
- Advertisement. Primarily Sales and Specials and other offerings direct from vendors or the webstore (this one's for Gavin!)
- Errata and Error Reporting. Mistakes happen, so a place to recommend and review fixes to the game rules is a must.
+ Tournaments and Gatherings. Challenge your peers or invite new people to the Universe... publicly!
- After Action Report (AAR). Typically hand in hand with tournaments and general fun, a breakdown of a given event!
- House Rules and other homebrew content. Sometimes modifying old rules or making up new ones make the game more interesting and fun.
- Faction Favorites. From Civilian life to Condot livery, Legion militant or Xin trader... a place to talk about your preferred army and builds.
- Fan Ficiton. A place to encourage narrative sharing in the Ion Age.
- Artwork. A place to view and share official and fan-inspired illustrations, painted models, and other mediums.
One personal mention: all of my experience with the IonAge has involved the 15mm ruleset. I am aware there are two distinct lines - the 15mm and the 28mm - so at some point, we should be splitting the discussion into "mirrored/twinned" threads geared towards narrowing the focus on that dynamic.
