I just got a big box from my favorite on-line gaming store yesterday, and I practically ran into the house, giddy as a school boy on Christmas morning! Inside, I found a shinny new rulebook, along with not one... not two... but three new fleet boxes! :lol:
I only had time to skim through the rules, but so far I like what I see. This is my first exposure to the ACTA rules system, but as an old-school SFB player who used to lug around an 8-inch 3-ring binder full of rules and scenarios, I welcome the more streamline system! I'm hoping to get my feet wet this weekend with a practice game or two.
I popped all three boxes open, but only got to really drool over... I mean look closely at the Federation fleet. It looks like everything is there, and the sculptings and castings look really good. I can't wait to get these painted up. Used to have a large collection of the old Starline 2400 miniatures, but the box they were in went missing duing a cross-country move a couple of years ago and I never got around to replacing them. Nice as they were, I really like the extra detail on these Starline 2500 miniatures. :wink:
