Yes!Star constellations in ROF!!

Another thing to drool over (well to me at least) about the game.Take a look at this,Ursa Major (A.K.A The Big Dipper).



I believe that the bright star below the end of the dippers handle belongs to the constellation Canes Venatici!

Good catch, Willi, you are correct. Even Alcor and Mizar are faithfully represented in the handle of the dipper.

But forgive my ignorance- I gave up miniatures gaming last year, and have only ever played the basic version of RB3D on the computer. What is the game you are referring to?

Thank you, Willi, I have just ordered a copy.

I have little time for gaming anymore, but I plan to set-aside some time this summer to try this one out.
