Very, very nice ships! Thanks for sharing.
I wish they were half as good as yours!  :)

These are gorgeous.  I have a bunch of those silent death ships painted, and they now look terrible.   :D ;)
This is my boomstick!

I tend to shy away from fighters-in-space, but I would love to be flying these!

I still have sprues from the I.C.E. sets; don't expect they'll ever see paint a tenth as compelling.

The re-re-etc-reissue of the SC Yamato ships has been tempting, but I've several yet to see assembly. Some of the ones with myriad tiny parts are daunting.

I'll probably pop for Star Navy first, but FC is definitely on my sensors.

Thanks!

Doug

PS As far as events controlling players, I thought it sounded none too difficult to tone down with house rule adjustments. Only an impression, mind you.

Actually it's quite easy. For example, when a ship receives fire it must take a receive fire test where the ship will react firing back or flying away, etc. but you can skip that test if you want and just check for damage and keep playing.
THW rulesets are quite robust and generally you can throw at them any house rule and they will admit it.

I love a fanboy; you should hear me wax lyric about Full Thrust...  lol

Like I said, on the viewscreen, for sure!
