You were asked – TMP link Not the show – the spaceship miniatures game. Would you support its return? Same rulebook, or new rules? Rulebook only, or the minis? Which scale? Same minis, or new minis? 18% said "not my cup of tea"
16% said "yes, updated/new rules and the old minis"
14% said "none of these/no opinion" (Roughly 40% said some form of 'yes'.) |

I still have loads of models for the game, but never really cared for the rules.
An update would be good! |

I don't know anything about the rules, so can't comment if they are any good or not, but I would love to see the minis re-released. |

Well not much of a game player but I liked the figures to paint, hard to get now, I would like some new figures to be updated(not that the old ones were bad) |

As was pointed out in the comments for the poll, there were several rule sets. I'd say the Call to Arms version was about the most popular, comments-to-come of 'BUT I LIKED..' not withstanding. I rather liked the Fleet Action ships as the other size seemed better for the paint and enjoy. I was impressed that the first RPG ship rules in Earthforce Soucebook was favorably mentioned. I recall some thinking it was the best version of Full Thrust. ;->= As was pointed out, Agents of Gaming still has stock produced before losing the license, and a number of ships show fairly regularly on eBay.
