Thanks all  :)

Great idea....only 6’ long or thereabouts, James should have one knocked up by the end of the week  ;)

1.6m but being the anal retard that I am it would have to be pretty much spot on and I really don’t have the time nor space  lol

Bandai do an Imp Star at 1:5000 (or there abouts) which could be another scale to look at  :?
cheers

I’ve got a couple of the 1/2256 Anigrand Star Destroyers to build one day....they will only be 29” long, but I might need to build an extension onto my games room first to find somewhere to store them when not in use.  :D

Damn these universes with unfeasibly large space craft  lol

‘Starfighters’ from Wiley Games. There’s a fleet expansion to the rules in the back.

How are you liking the rules so far?  I haven't been able to read through them fully, but the movement seems...lack luster compared to other things I'm used to (wings of war, crimson skies, x-wing, etc).

It feels like a simplified form of a hex based move system, and not necessarily in a good way, but that could just be an incorrect first impression.
On time, on target, or the next one's free

It was myself and a couple of others that came up with the concept for Jaye and for the type of games we play it does the job well  :)

I play tested them and didn't really have an issue with the movement rules. They're not as precise as something like xwing, but I don't think they're intended to be.

Not much happening here until I get some more buildings made and cast but I've finished off some containers in the mean time.
