Artemis - Starship Bridge Simulator

[Michael P. Flaga]

This week’s High Impedance Air Gap (Electronics Club) at Lansing Makers Network will begin a series of events to improve and play our own instance of Artemis – Starship Bridge Simulator.

 

Yes, bring out your inner Sci-Fi Geek. All are welcome to attend and participate in this roll-playing game, along with the planning and creation of new effects via a DMX interface.

 

This ultimate target-rich environment fabricates the voyages of the Starship Artemis, and its sister vessels, whose ongoing mission is seek out aggressive life forms, marauders and even each other, and blow ‘em all to spacedust! Scan for danger at the Science post, plot a course at Helm, launch mines and torpedoes from Weapons Control, manage the power and damage report from Engineering, intimidate the enemy from Communications, or take the big chair as Captain and coordinate your crew’s actions.

 

Artemis is set up on several computers (please bring your own) networked together, each computer acting as a position on the bridge. Up to six people can play as the crew of each starship patrolling and defending outposts.
