Love the terrain and the flyer  :-* :-*

Is the flyer from an old computer game as it looks rather familiar (apologies if I've missed it in the thread)?

cheers

Thanks folks!

How did you laminate the paper?  How about gluing to the plasticard?

I am a bit unsure here...
I simply laminated it, I bought a laminating "machine" a couple of years ago to protect my SW Mini gaming cards.
So stick the laminating foil around the printed sheet and stick the whole thing into the "machine".
Then I used plastic glue to fix it to a cut to fit plasticard.
The most important part is then the matt varnish, after that you can paint some weathering or so quite easily on the otherwise glossy laminating surface.

Yup as said in the threat, Kilrathi Drahlti from WC III and up.
cheers and keep on gaming, Agis - https://www.adpublishing.de

Thanks!

I figured it was regular lamination, but wanted to be sure.  I didn't think about the matte varnish, makes sense but genious!

And one more, this time a Terran base under attack by the Kilrathis:

The Rapier is from Shapeways Terran Fleet Supply; Humans and 6-wheeler by GZG.

I sneaked this and more pics into my  latest book: http://www.adpublishing.de/html/future_combat_vide.html.

Wow, everything sure looks great.

I especially love that Rapier Spacefighter, and the Kilrathi VTOL too, in addition to the buildings, figs, etc.

Who makes the Hover Tank, you show in the rules link, on pages 40 and 56?

I don't recall seeing it before.

Is it 15mm scale?

Big thanks! The nice feedback to my book so far really makes me grateful and excited for future projects.

The tank is a NuCoal tank. 12mm (but as you see I use it with 15mm minis) from DP9s Heavy Gear range: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=59353.0

Very nice. Those Terran look a bit too relaxed with all those kilrathi bearing down on hue gem. Some look like thy are going on holiday and are trying to remember if they switched the oven off.
"Ah don't worry about it, we'll be dead in a few seconds anyway honey"

Blini  autocorrect, sorted now. Aargh, blimin.

LOL  :), you are underestimating the lightning fast Blitz attack of the Cats.
These poor apes are completely taken by surprise!  ;)

Thanks for the info, Agis.

I really appreciate it.

Any progress on the UFO project, I seem to recall you were working on, a while back?
