It's the evil Empire James, they don't play nice  8)

Great looking game indeed! Where is the TIE bomber from?

tie bomber looks like it might be a Micro Machines Action Fleet model - I've a few of their other star wars fighters and they fit in beautifully with the WEG models. That or maybe one of the Titanium range diecasts.

Some of the old GZG 25mm vehicles are good for other star wars universe models - IE rebel ground vehicles, Imp/planetary defence ground vehicles etc. forgottoen the name of the company that now sells them, they are in Scotland iirc.

That generator is great! Did you make it or can I buy one somewhere?
 I bought from Hispania Modelling Sollutions ( search HMS on facebook) quite pricey, but it weights almost 3 kgs. !! it's an amazing piece of scenery, i wish i had more time in order of improving even more the model doing some panel works.

Jim, there is a SWMB Third Ed.  which improves the game bringing starfighter Straffing rules ( instead of Off-board Artillery,i mean, this is more flashy)
If the enemy player has any on board artillery ( which was the case)there's still a chance of hitting the starfighter, destroying it, or merely deviating the bombing path ( what happened in the game) . note: tie Bombers leave 4 proton torpedoes
Rebels - or fringe-  also can pay for single straffing starfighters that brings death from above  per battle. I must confess i've reserved some 1/72 models : the classical TIE, X, wing,  Y-wing and a 1/72 B-wing. MUAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
The Tie Bomber is a resin model from Multiverse Models.

I'd been thinking the same thing, but it appear larger by more than a bit to me. However, I'm not familiar with Multiverse, so who's to say...

No, that was a request for info, not just an aside.  lol

Mostly the smaller stuff, right? No sure some of the resin monsters I have would fit. Besides, if I ever get around to selling them here in the colonies, with shippage being what it is from the UK, I should get a pretty.  :D

the PM also just said 'SECRET'  ;)

cheers mate.  :)

Curse my inquiring mind!

Long before the WOC appeared, i had a spare 1/12 Speeder bike ( ERTL/MPC)?? you may recognize some bits of such model.yeah i know modellers would be horrified, but at that time i needed to scratch in a compulsory way. Now i'll study what to do in order to make it look better by the moment some putty to cover some bits and make some round hull parts, then sanding and panelling work. yes the pics sucks my camera left us recently. Requiestem in pace.
After checking the weight test i've realized that i must weight the base and cover the transparent one turning it into a scenery one ( covered with terrain layer)

Hello there Folks!.
We're working on a Scenario on Kala'unn, the spaceport of Ryloth.
the idea is, once playtested, put the edited scenario on the SWMB Yahoo group.
By now here are some captions of the battlemap and the forces.
Jabba the Hutt has sent Tessek as a courier for a Spice dealing.
Awaiting for them, The Baasa Clan, one of the most prominent spice dealers family from Ryloth.
hope you like it!
