    Red-24's Painted Star Fleet

    Excellent paint jobs and I love the photography, how did you do the main pics with the black background?

    Which is the tougher Klingon Fleet?

    I find numbers REALLY important, so go with the 1st option as the only one with 7 ships.

    I'm getting sick of "Lumbering"

    I have bought 2 squadron boxes of feds and 2 of klingons. I now dump the fed dreadnought all together and just field a pair of Kirov's as heavy firepower. With 30 shields and plenty of firepower they are excellent value for money. Agree Lumbering is terrible, suggest for any moderate sized...

    Squadron Boxes

    If it works then it is worth it, quality control is really not great at the moment, I would rather pay a few quid extra and get good models. Of course paying a few quid less and getting great models would be even better :)

    Squadron Boxes

    I thought Mat just said that effectively part at least of the price increase is being used to fund better quality control....

    Squadron Boxes

    When I bought my 1st squadron boxes of feds and klingons I found there were some minor issues with the klingons but overall the casts were pretty good. The feds had quite a few poor casting issues on them, one very bad. I have just received my 2nd 2 squadron boxes of feds and klingons and the...

    Rules check on Klingon shields

    Totenkopf, I am not trying a rules mongering idea, i'm the klingon player, i just don't understand how it is supposed to work, and the rules are not explicit. If the system is supposed to be simple, what is the answer? I am getting different answers, which is correct? Andy

    Rules check on Klingon shields

    Guys, I asked this a while ago and if I remember got one answer from a chap gave the following proposal, but it was far from the definitive answer. Can I ask for confirmation as to whether the following is correct.... Fed dreadnought with 3 phaser weapons and 2 photon torpedo weapons that can...

    Basing of ACtA:SF models

    Stands supplied with new ships are superb. In theory they are the post and whole type, problem with them usually is either they don't stick in the ship or you glue them in and then the stands break off whilst packing them away. New ones use a 2 part ball and joint arrangement. The small joint...

    Squadron Boxes

    Sounds like they have just had a chat and decided between themselves they don't want to play it. Seems fair. Of course if they have threathened the shop owner with decapitation or ritual disembowlment of his favourite pet if he continues to sell the accursed models that is probably taking...

    Squadron Boxes

    Oh dear, I really do feel sorry for you guys still waiting. A year or more ago I got into dystopian wars, got the first big box set no problem, but then they sold out and could not get new stock in. By the time they finally had what I wanted months and months later both I and my friends had...
