Nice to see so many visitors to 'Martin's Models' recently - who's had a chance to print out some counters and use them in their games? I'd like to know if anyone has suggestions for changes, or counters I have not thought of.

Hello all, Follow the link to my much neglected blog, Martin's Models: http://sites.google.com/site/martinsmodels/home - to find a little something I ran up for a demonstration game last month; a full-colour PDF of counters for ACTA, showing Critical results and Special Actions. (The image...

Off with the Bunny suit, Matt!! :shock: Thanks to all for the clarification. Much appreciated.

Hello all, A friend in my group has an interpretation of the seeking rule that goes like this: As we all know: "With the damage spread around the entire target ship, no rolls are made to see if the weapon penetrates Shields." - which my friend interprets as meaning: Seeking weapons (in our...

Hi Big D, thanks for stepping out of the shadows - don't worry, you're among friends here! :lol: Those are a great-looking pair of fleets! Nice work! Wherever do you find the time to get them done? I needed some inspiration to get my butt into gear, and finish my fleets - thanks for...

Very nice work! The colours look very Original Series. I like the simple way of describing a comet, more robust and game-friendly than cotton wool.

They certainly do look better with the decals added. Nice work, all round. Did you apply these over a gloss varnish, or straight onto the paint?

Brilliant. Want it. Make it. Please!! :D

Legend, I'm sorry to hear of your bad experiences, and yes, I sympathise, with neither qualification nor exception. When ACTA: Star Fleet was announced, I decided to take it on board as my primary product for Little Soldiers in 2012. I took a whole load of the initial Squadron Boxes, and was...

Let me assure you, shiba, these things are known to me... 8) Grindhouse Games Panzeraffe (by me, with washes :) ) The primary reason for the use of decals, rather than washes and markers, is control. Using decals allows me to place each panel line exactly where I want it. If I make a...

Hello all, Of the many resin '2500 miniatures I originally took delivery of here at Little Soldiers, precious few were of a quality good enough to put on the tabletop. :( BUT—! Undeterred, I mined through the coal, and managed to salvage a few rough diamonds - and, if I do say so myself, the...

I'm not sure which is metal, but the Australia is the same ship that appeared in the BCH listing in the rulebook - the decals give her away. Firstly, she's mis-spelt - 'Austrailia' rather than 'Australia'. (Trust me, I know about these things... :lol: ) Secondly, there's a small 'chip'...

Now, THAT's what I'm talking about! Nice work! Which decals will you be using for that final *schwing!* quality? 8) Also, the light blue panels are an interesting variation - has a suitable 60's pastel industrial design vibe.

I think those are launchers on the underside of the primary hull, embedded and looking like the 20mm gunports under the nose of a WW2 DeHavilland Mosquito.
