Iron Stars: Southern Front

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Southern Front™ is the second supplement for Iron Stars™, the game of space combat in an age of steam and steel. In this book players will find additional game mechanics and background material that extends our semi historical timeline through the pivotal year of 1912:

  • An overview of world history from the close of the Merchant War through the Antarctic crisis;
  • Nearly four dozen new ether ship designs, covering the space forces of South America, Italy, Turkey, and Spain, along with additional ships from Britain and Japan, and the introduction of the Soviet space forces;
  • Coverage of the Falklands War between the British Empire and the A.B.C. Powers (Argentina, Brazil, and Chile), including nine new scenarios;
  • "The Red One," a short story by Jack London;
  • A new space station, HMSS Diamond Rock;
  • Rules for boarding parties and shipboard combat;
  • New special equipment, such as star shells and heat rays; and
  • Rules for orbital bombardment of surface targets.

This should be more than enough to keep your ether navies occupied as the world marches inexorably towards the Great War.

Southern Front is not a complete game in itself; ownership of the Iron Stars rulebook is required.

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.
