Some news on Shapeways and pricing. We will be releasing at least 19 items on the first. These will be subject to the new pricing from Shapeways. We are seeing price increases of about 30% on the Fine Detail Plastic printings. The colored materials are also seeing a substantial increase in price. Regretfully, we have to pass these on to you.

Why? We don't charge a percentage of the price for ships. We charge a flat amount above the price Shapeways gives us. Out of that we pay the sculptors, Paramount, the Paypal fees Shapeways charges us, and Franz Joseph when it is one of their ships. Only what is left goes to the company. We honestly cannot absorb the price increase that Shapeways is charging.

We strongly advise you to purchase any older ships that you will want before 2019. We don't know when (but suspect January 1, 2019 at 12:01 am in the Netherlands) the prices on old ships will jump to the new levels. This will hit ships that are under $9.99 in Versatile Plastic the hardest.

If you place an order that includes new ships, we have been advised that to get the old shipping times, you will need to pay for Priority processing. Do carefully consider your order if you decide to pay for that as the ENTIRE ORDER will be subject to a 30% increase. Do some calculating and consider splitting your order into two if you are ordering older ships. They are already being processed at the new priority speed and there's no need to pay 30% more for what you are already getting.

I deeply regret that this is happening.

ADB Releases Ships for November!

On October 20 and again on November 1, 2018, ADB released a total of 85 new items to its shop on Shapeways, bringing the total items in its shop to over 1,200. Please note that any ships released after October 21 are subject to the increased production prices Shapeways imposed on designers and shops. Sadly we must pass the increases on to our customers. Those items that are subject to the increased prices are marked with an asterisk. We strongly encourage people to buy any older ships they want before 2019 when the old prices that were grandfathered in will expire and prices will go up dramatically.

The Federation gains its Heavy Drone Cruiser, Heavy War Destroyer*, Scout Frigate, and War Destroyer Scout* in both the "regular" and "Fed Classic" (smooth body) versions. It also gets its A-10 "Warthog" Fighter in the new 285 Scale.

The Klingons get their E4S Scout and F6S Battle Frigate Scout. To better match the original metal Starline 2500 miniatures with their molded-in windows, they have the 3125 Scale F6SB Battle Frigate Scout. The F6SK Battle Frigate Scout has the Aztecked designs on the wings.

The Romulans get their SeaHawk-A Frigate* and Snipe-B Battle Frigate.

The Tholians gain the Combat Tug and Heavy Command Cruiser*, along with the Neo-Tholian Survey Cruiser.

The Gorns get their Heavy Destroyer Scout in the regular and refitted versions. They also gain the G-10 "Dragon" Fighter in the new 285 Scale.

The Inter-Stellar Concordium adds its powerful Dreadnought.

The WYN have salvaged a Kzinti-built War Destroyer* and their Pocket Battlecruiser.

The Seltorians add their Scout.

Empires from the Omega Octant continue to have new additions. The Bolosco add their Guild Cruiser; the Hivers, their Battlecruiser and a sprue of Barb-2 and Barb-H fighters; the Singers, their Frigate; and the Worb, their Scout.

We have released another space dragon that is to be feared by any wise ship captain. The Young Female Space Dragon* could easily handle a light cruiser in battle.

We just got the new pricing information for Fine Detail Plastic in Smooth and Smoothest (formerly known as FUD and FED). Prices will change on April 29. Some prices will drop. Many will rise.

In our shop, Smooth Fine Detail Plastic will have a minimum of $11.99 when we finish repricing. If your mini costs less than that now, consider buying it now.

In our shop, Smoothest Fine Detail Plastic will have a minimum of $14.99 when we finish repricing. If your mini costs less than that now, consider buying it now.

If the ship you are thinking of is one of our newer ones, consider waiting to combine it with an order for our newest releases on May 1. Many of those ships, but not all, will drop in price for those materials.

Here is a list of the 101 ships that will go up the most in dollar increases as of April 29. If these are on your "want list," buy them now. The price increases are from about $14 to nearly $300!!! (The list below is in alphabetical order to help you determine if your ship is on it.) Note that these are tending to be the biggest ships.

ADB Releases Ships in September 2019!

On September 3, 2019, ADB released a total of 43 new items to its shop on Shapeways, bringing it to over 1,700 items. There are some styles of ships designed to work within the price increase that Shapeways imposed. We are also releasing some carrier groups as multiples on a sprue. We hope you find them more affordable.

The Klingons gain their WD5 War Dreadnought. The WD5K Refitted War Dreadnought has the Aztecked designs on the wings.

The Tholians gain their Battleship Carrier and their original Battleship with no fighters or gunboats on the hull.

The Seltorians get their Light Carrier and Gunboat/PF Tender. They also get a Light Carrier Group (the Light Carrier and Escort Destroyer) and a Strike Carrier Group (a Strike Carrier, Light Escort Cruiser, and Escort Destroyer).

ADB Releases Ships in October 2019!

On October 4, 2019, ADB released a total of 75 new items to its shop on Shapeways. There were four Tholian web play aids released earlier in mid-September to celebrate the release of A Call to Arms: Star Fleet, Book 2. That brings our shop to nearly 1,800 items. There are some styles of ships designed to work within the price increase that Shapeways imposed. Notably we added empire-specific shuttles and battle stations. We also added a new, larger scale that we named the 2500 Scale (Prestige Scale) which is 1/2500. These larger ships are perfect for one-on-one tabletop duels. They can always be used as a display model when not being used for battles.

The Federation gets a brand new ship, the Corvette, in both the "regular" (gridded) and "Fed Classic" (smooth body) versions. The ship is already in A Call to Arms: Star Fleet (ACTASF). It will get a Federation Commander ship card in the Communique for November. It will appear in Module R13 for Star Fleet Battles. The Federation also gets its Augmented Base Station, Battle Station, and Augmented Battle Station.

The Klingons gain their Augmented Base Station, Battle Station, and Augmented Battle Station. They get their empire-specific administrative shuttlecraft, too. Finally they get their SparrowHawk and SparrowHawk+ Light Cruiser (RKL). The "+" indicates it is a late-war "Cranked Arrow" design in the style of the Starline 2500 Romulan ships which these are based on. The RKL is in the new ACTASF book.

The Romulans get their ChickenHawk Gunboat/PF Tender along with their empire-specific administrative shuttlecraft.

The Tholians gain some play aids to help mark their Tholian Web. They have 1" Web Panels (20 of them), 2" Web Panels (12 of them), and 2" Web Panels with the bases built in (8 in a set). They also get a set of Tholian Web Anchors.

The Seltorians get their Fast Cruiser, Fast Light Cruiser, and Survey Cruiser. They also get their empire-specific administrative shuttlecraft.

The Gorns gain their Epanterias-K Strike Cruiser and Tyrannosaurus-H Heavy Dreadnought in both the regular and refitted versions. (Both of these ships are in the new ACTASF book where the Tyrannosaurus-H is known as the Spinosaurus.) The Gorns are also the first to see the new 2500 Scale (Prestige Scale) with the Allosaurus Buck Battlecruiser in both the regular and refitted versions.

The Kzintis get their Command Cruiser, Fast Battlecruiser, Heavy Dreadnought, New Command Cruiser, and Police Cutter. There is also a sprue with both the Police Cutter and Police Corvette on it. While the Command Cruiser is ACTASF1.2, the others are in the new ACTASF book. They also get their empire-specific shuttlecraft.

The Orions get their Dreadnought and Gunboat/PF Tender. The Dreadnought is in the new ACTASF book.

The Hydrans get their Mongol-H and Tartar-H heavy medium cruisers.

The Lyrans and their wayward county of the Lyran Democratic Republic get their Local Defense Frigate.

The Inter-Stellar Concordium gets its Scout, based on a destroyer hull.

The Vudar gain a War Destroyer Scout along with their empire-specific shuttlecraft.

The WYNs gain their Green Shark Strike Carrier and Tigershark Heavy Battlecruiser. Either ship is available as a one-piece ship or a kit that needs some assembly.

In the simulator you can fight the Qari BM1 Destroyer and T64 Heavy Cruiser. Since the turret for their weapons is a separate piece, you can aim the turret where you want!
