As a quick diversion from terrain I've put up a picture of the Star Wars Titanium Mist Hunter ship with a GZG space suited figure from my pile.

Big thanks the Dan for raising the question in the first place.

Hail CloudCaptain!!!

I still haven't been able to track them down anywhere (the Mist Hunters). But I do have one last store to check. Fingers crossed.

Andrew, what landing gear do you have in mind?

Thanks,

Dan

"Yes, I understand that, which is why I used inverted commas. I also understand what Quarrie was trying to do with his myriad of factors – we did play the damn rules back in the day after all.

But, can you really rationalise French line being able to move twice as fast as Prussian Landwehr in the rules by stating that the French had more experience and training? Further, just about every other nation's line infantry is slower than French line. Really? From beginning to end of the Napoleonic Wars, in all theatres? Including the Marie Louse' of 1813? And don't get me started on British rifles lowly fire factor of 1, that used to be a major bone of contention.

'Accuracy', as ever, is in the eye of the beholder. Without wishing to start a flame war, or one of those endless simulation/game debates, it is a mistake to conflate complexity with accuracy."

I guess the bug is back…I had posted a bunch form ebay and amazon…

Deep deep sorrow cloudcaptain please have a beer and pizza on me (blush).

Dan – I was thinking skis picture rather than wheels for some reason – longer though than these.

Have a look on eBay – just mind the trading cards.

I've corrected the blog posting now

28mmMan,

You had me worried there for a bit. LOL!!!

Andrew,

I think it looks way better as a 15mm vehicle than as the smaller scale it's probably meant to represent:

Ho no more ships to buy.

Dan,

I had seen that before and like you was not impressed but very pleasantly surprised when cloudcaptain pointed it out.

It will be a long time before the big board is finished at this rate so the ship is tucked away for awhile

My local Big Lots! store had them for $4.00 USD this week. I'm in southern California for any one who wants one on the West Coast.
