STARFIRE
WELCOME TO STARFIRE!

STARFIRE is an original game of starship combat and interstellar empire building. Originally written by Steve Cole in 1976, the game system was expanded in the 1980's and 1990's and based on the books by David Weber. In 2000 GALACTIC STARFIRE was released, which has evolved into the current ULTRA STARFIRE edition.

STARFIRE's unique combat system allows players to build their own fleets of starships and annihilate those fleets in only a few hours play time. Fans of 4X (eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, eXterminate) games will enjoy that STARFIRE has a campaign system that allows you to build an alien empire, control every facet of its development, and attempt to conquer a galaxy full of players and/or non-players alike.

The second iteration of the SOLAR STARFIRE Training Scenarios has been released to the downloads section here. We were waiting for graphics, but since they are delayed I am releasing a version of the PDF without graphics. The final update will be released later this week.

Updates to SOLAR STARFIRE

Some people have been asking about the updated version of SOLAR STARFIRE we've been talking about in the forums. Specifically, if there will be a cost. So let me outline the plan for upgrades to SOLAR STARFIRE, as detailed in our pricing post here in the forums.

There will be one update and upgrade to the SOLAR STARFIRE rules every year. In June there will be an UPDATE that will include errata, any rules that required changes, etc. That will be free to purchasers of the current version of SOLAR STARFIRE. At the end of every year will be an UPGRADE to the next version, and that will include new rules, new material, and new stuff for the story line. It will cost $5 to UPGRADE from any past version to the current version.

If you have any questions, either email me or go to the forum post above and ask. If you need to be registered, please email me your desired username and the email you want to sign up with and I'll get you registered.
