My hexes are 5cm in size.

The table will remain green, as it was primeraly intented for Battletech. I have a space-table, but without hex. I might decide to play wityhout hexes. Haven't really decided yet.
Too many projects... not enough time...

I have the one third from the right top row in my collection of ship some where. It is a silver hard plastic and it came out of a gum ball machine. Mine is at least 3o years old.

As it's a recent purchase, I'm fairly sure it's a softer plastic. Not PS/ABS type, more like a PP. Slick, damnably hard to repaint.

The two on either side are definitely from Message. I think the square one is Liabe.

Edit: Yepper. Not sure about any of the others...

The brightly coloured ones are hard plastic. The silver/gold/blue ones er soft plast/rubber-ish.

The brightly coloured ones are hard plastic.

Solid, but still softer than styrene, right? I'd LOVE to be able to get them in PS. Might even like resin.

You can bend the weapons slightly without them breaking.

I finally completed the hex-table:



Now I'll be looking at some rules and painting some ships. I'm still unsure which detial level and want for the rule system.
