no one has yet explained to me how this is any a/ better or b/cheaper for me  either the company make the models and sells them to me (how is that any different?) or i buy a printer buy the material that you make the models out of wait several hours for the printer to print (if it dose not jam which i told they can ) pay for the power of this extra piece of kit ... ? just give me the models

full thrust has a option to use a vector movement  which allows ships to move the same as the BSG fighters did in the reboot , i think its in fleet book one , and link to ground warfare  in the more thrust book using gzg's dirt side rules , dont recall ever using them . (ps both are free to download from gzg )

well that's kind of odd but it might help unused ships see the table without having to buy a new model when you already have one

I was sorry to see this news although  never really played their stuff and I have to wonder about halo licence costs and if enough comp gamers where even bothered to make it worth while . as a none halo gamer but a space navel gamer  , I was never even tempted (plus I prefer a game to have 4 clear factions min )   its odd that the halo stuff its not motioned in the statement ?

invasions are  some of the must important bits of a war/campaign game they give a reason for ships to be fighting other that to just control the seas / void so its nice to have a link , it makes you think of tactics you don't normally bother with eg do I send a fleet off to some place out of the way to distract  from my invasion force and if so how hard do I want them to fight how many can I afford to lose when I may need them later to reinforce the main force

 I'll be honest I don't play DW  I picked Indian Raj  because they are one of the nations in history , whose navy history I've never heard about
