shows no self-restraint and paints models he doesn't even need yet!
British Fleet Box 1 for Squadron Strike is now up for pre-order! Yes, the game made it to the 133 pre-orders we needed to finance this.
The pre-order target to start production is 40 fleet boxes. We don't know exactly how many ships would go into each $59.95 USD fleet box, but our other fleet boxes contain 8 to 18 ships each (the "8" includes a three-piece superdreadnought). The cost of making the molds varies with a lot of factors, including complexity of pieces, size of pieces, and number of pieces. For example, posable rotating sections require more pieces.

Next up are the Russians. We need 7 more Squadron Strike pre-orders and at least 20 pre-orders for the Brits to be able to afford to put the Russians up from pre-order. Then we turn to the Japanese.
As with all Ad Astra Games pre-orders, you pay nothing now, and we don't store your credit card information. When our caster tells us that everything is ready to go, we'll send you a notice to confirm your order and pay.
