Battlestar Galactica - Starship Battles / Re: BSG-SB News

Ok, for all of you who have been clamoring for the original series ships, here ya go:

Dude I have miniatures that I bought 7 years ago that I still haven’t painted. So... :-X

I saw the models in person finally tonight at Gamer's Haven in the Springs. They definitely are too big for playing in conjunction with Adeptus Titanicus. That being said, I don't know how you'd run the two games combined--AI uses hex movement and AT doesn't, and AT needs ground terrain, whereas that would just interfere with movement for AI.

All that being said...the models are DANG COOL. The Thunderbolts look sweet, and the level of detail, especially for the scale, is just this side of insane.

I want to give the game a try before I consider buying it--want to see how it plays. I also want to wait a bit and see how GW fleshes it out. I'm hearing that it will be fully supported and that they're going to release flyers for just about all the factions, so I'm cautiously optimistic. I also want to see what aftermarket accessories come out, specifically game mats...AI uses a 2" hex grid, which I don't think is very common, so it'll be interesting to see if a company like Tablewar releases AI-specific mats.

At a bare minimum I'll likely buy some of the models to paint. Because I really need more models to paint.  ::)

Very nice! I like the paint schemes. How was the game?

Good news for fans of the Expanse!!

Preview looks great. Looks like Amazon is keeping up the production values from the first three seasons. And we’re already guaranteed a season 5!

37
Yeah. Again I never had much skin in the game with FA, so I’m ok with some changes. Will be interesting to see how this develops. I’m hoping they’ll make it more different from DW than the two games were under Spartan.

A little news about the Viper Mk VII. Looks like we’ll get it at the end of the year.

I guess this is the promised news about Firestorm Armada?

Scroll to the bottom after the Dystopian Wars stuff. Not a bad look for the new Dindrenzi ships. Almost looks like they took some inspiration from the Cylon Resurrection Ships from the BSG reboot, and maybe the Necromongers from the Chronicles of Riddick.

Thanks for posting!

Probably will but I’d like to try a game first. At a bare minimum I’ll buy some of the minis, they’re just too cool to pass up. Plus I’ll likely never purchase their 28mm equivalents—too expensive. Easy E, sorry to hear they aren’t compatible with your old models! How much different is the scale?

All-

We're aware of the spammers hitting the forum of late. Apologies if anyone was offended by the frankly disgusting images in some of the posts. I'm working to fix the issue. Please continue to report and I'll keep a close eye on it going forward. Also, apologies in advance if I accidentally ban and/or delete accounts of any legitimate MBS forum members. If this happens, please contact me at landlubber@manbattlestations.com.
