I was thinking of buing this for SF

[MarkDawg]

Hello guys I was thinking of buying these products to make my games of ACTA:SF better and I was wondering if any of you have them if so please tell me what you think and if not but you have seen them out the box tell me if you think they would work good for the game.

So I was thinking of doing base assault and defend missions with this.

I've got the scenario draft up for that, but it's not a Fed base that needs defended.

It'd be huge, more a terrain piece than a mini!

How big inches wise?

Discovered this myself yesterday while researching paint schemes. From the Round 2 Models website the K7 Space Station measures 15" wide and 6" high. Way out of scale w/ ACTA:SF (for comparison there is a tiny TOS Enterprise include w/ the kit). Still it looks the part and will add nice Trek flavor to a game. I plan on picking one up.

Got the Micro-Machines version but thats too small (good with the 2400 models). Might keep an eye out for this on Ebay, and pick one up. Sounds about the right size for a space/battle station.

I love my Hotzmats. In fact I'm getting another one very soon that has the "enhanced deep space" on one side and the regular deep space plus hexes on the other.

Just be warned that it can take quite some time to get them. I've been pretty lucky, but then again I live very close to them.

Hey, you measure from the base stem anyways, so why not! The only real issue might be it being a bit too awkward to maneuver minis nearby.

Have one myself. Mount it on a tall enough stem, and it's not a problem.

Though use caution when reaching under to move ships!
