Noticed that over on the Mongoose boards. Pleasantly surprised with the Squadron/Fleet box prices, and I'm very curious about the makeup of the Fleet sets. Noticed they also come with drone and torpedo markers. Physical models or counters, I wonder ? |

I have to agree there,the costs of the sets do look very good. _________________ Federal Republic of Aurora fleet builder.

I agree that the prices are definately within reason. I worry a little bit about the singles. I'm okay with 14.99 for a CA, but 14.99 for 1 frigate? I hope that's a blister of 2. |

I expect it'll be like their Noble Armada ships, where you get one large or multiple smaller ships in a blister. |

Interesting no Gorns or Tholians on the list. Scoutdad is there any Playtest material out for those 2 races. I am pretty sure you set up a Gorn v. Rom battle so there must be Playtest rules out there for Lizards but what about Lava Heads? _________________ -Dal

tholians have a couple of ships atm, just as per the original fedcom releases.
gorns should be getting fleets as they are in the rules for initial release _________________ A Call to Arms playtester |

So it's basically the ships from the first four releases?
Federation, Klingons, Romulans, Kzintis, Gorns, and a few pirates and Tholians? _________________ "Captain" Terry O'Carroll, fourteen papers published including six best of issue

Does that include the 2500 stuff or just the ACtA rules for SFU? |

Both.
All the SL2500 miniatures that are ready at this time (fleet and squadron boxes for Feds, Klingon, Romulan) and blisters for ships in those boxes, along with a token few stragglers like the Fed DW.
I'm sure the remaining Feds, Orions, Tholians, and general ships will come along, in due time. It looks like it was a real push to get the first batch out.
The hardback ACTA:SF book is also shipping at the same time. _________________

Because I wanted to add another squadron box to my three fleet box order, I called Mongoose today to do that. The 2500s are shipping next week. He said to expect my squadron box a few days earlier than my fleet boxes, but that both would ship next week. |
