Results of Second Convoy Raid

Here are the combat logs and final map from my second run at the convoy raid. The Klingon heavy cruiser was doing fine until, at halfway across the map (based on a 50/50 chance dice roll) a Fed heavy cruiser showed up. The Klingon had already taken a bit of damage from the four freighters, and the long range and fire-every-turn phasers of the Fed CA overwhelmed it. I think the two heavy cruisers would have been pretty evenly matched without the damage done by four freighters with defensive phasers, and the shuttle played a big part in combat. It should be easy to adapt shuttle rules for fighters, and the carrier can then truly enter the picture. I'm also thinking of coming back to multilevel play, using convoys and carriers to establish line of sight and project power, with a carrier battle group on a sector-sized map (of, say, one major system and four or five smaller systems, and maybe an asteroid field or nebula as an obstacle). In fact, that could play into the storyline with a carrier battle group being assigned to clear a hostile corridor, or protect a base being established in border territory. The important thing is to balance the combat play with the storyline.

Just a note on the combat logs. It all looks a bit crazy, but it's all about movement, position, target, range, and dice roll. They take the place of a computer program by precisely mapping out and tracking the activity of everything on the map. I'd simplify it, but I think that precision, and the game itself would suffer at that point. I actually don't think that there is anything in the combat log that isn't self-explanatory. Ritta, would you mind looking through them and raising any questions? If you want. You don't have to. It's just that I'm afraid that it just makes sense to me because I made it up.... Thanks :)
