I am quite new to TI3 (w SE expansion), but I am hosting my second game next weekend. Because some of the players are new to the game I sent them the rules as downladable to read by mail so they can prepare some and we wont have to spend the first part of the evning explaining them.

However I failed to find the race sheets online anywere. By this i mean the sheets for each alien race and their abilities/starting position/tech etc.

Is this anywere to be found?

Another question I have is the form I found under Support, next by the rules etc. "Transit Diodes Replacement Form", wanting me to turn in a copy of my orange Sarween tools and so on (i figure it is to validate I own the game or so). What is wrong with the current Transit Diodes? If it is so and they offer to replace the ones I already got, I would be happy to send the mail and recive replacements though

Please let me know if anyone have any answers to these issues.

Regards

Sigurd

No, not in a PNG or PDF anyway. However, if you go to the TI3Wiki site, I believe there are resources that have the textual description of them. Or, if you want, if you send me a PM over on that forum (this forum doesn't have a PM function that is suitable, unfortunately), I can PM them to you.

They may have corrected this in later print runs of the expansion; the problem wasn't with the Transit Diodes card per se, but rather what happened was (at least in the print run I got) that the Orange Technology Deck had TWO copies of Sarween Tools, but NO Transit Diodes card. Thus, the offer was that you could send in your second Sarween Tools card to get the Transit Diodes card back. If your Shattered Empires expansion came with an Orange Transit Diodes (and only a single copy of the Orange Sarween Tools), then you don't need to worry about it.

What's wrong with the current Transit Diodes is that it doesn't exist, at least in the orange tech deck. The offer you are referring to is to send in one of the two orange Sarween Tools (which you only need one of to play) and get an orange Transit Diodes in return (which you need and probably don't have.)

If you don't want to mail in the duplicate Sarween Tools, there's also a high-quality image file provided that you can print out and stick to your duplicate card. That's what I did (using sticker paper) and it worked like a charm. Much faster, too =)

Basically they screwed up the print run and are offering as many avenues to fix it as they can.

Seems I have an Orange "transit diodes" so I am happy I dont HAVE to mess about to get one (as I am a perfectionist when it comes to keeping my games 100%).

Ill look into the other forum, soon, thank you both!

I received the races abilities from zigma, and added the oter info for the different races myself. Maybe it can come handy for other players sometime
