Gameplay

Star Fleet Battles Supplement #1 contains rules for using various types of fighter craft and carriers used by different races. [1]

Reception

Jim Sizer reviewed The Asylum & Other Tales for White Dwarf #47, giving it an overall rating of 7 out of 10, and stated that "One criticism is that there are no plastic zip-lock bags to keep the counters in, other than that an excellent addition to SFB." [2]

Craig Sheeley reviewed SFB Supplement 1 - Fighters and Shuttles in The Space Gamer No. 71. [1] Sheeley commented that "If you want to collect every part of the Star Fleet Battles rules, or just want new counters and SSDs, then SFB Supplement #1 might be a good buy. Otherwise, just skip the idea of carriers altogether and go with pseudo-fighters." [1]
