I believe this just a space adaptation of the Uncharted Seas game.  Although I like US I cannot really using semi-circular turning templates in space.  They should have done that part differently, IMHO.  But the ships looks great.

I'm probably going to pick up the ships, but will use them with Starmada.

Just going by pics the spaceships are big but detailing seems to be from the early 90's!

They're neat but I think Ninja Magic, GZG and Cold Navy have better ships to offer.

The Sorylian Collective ships look interesting :agree:

But i cant say im overly impressed (especially compared to the beautiful uncharted seas stuff), as TRC said the level of detail is fairly unimpressive. There also seems to be a lack of imagination between the ship sizes, most of the ships just look like slightly smaller or larger versions of others within a race.

That could be said of our own ships to Apo~, it's only our submarines that doesn't look like other ships...  :whistle:

Meh true, i realise its an odd thing to say, but looking at those i have to really look to see differences between a battleship and a frigate. While you clearly want a consistent style and feel to the ships i find these too similar.

Edit: actually there are more noticeable differences in the other races, id been mainly looking at the Sorylian. The Dindrenzi look a bit repetitive as well though.

Edit, Edit: also the miniatures market needs more asymmetric spaceship designs! 12 ships in that range  and all symmetrical!

See, me personally, I like the slab sides,  I feel that most companies go overboard on the greeblies.  That's my opinion for what it's worth.

Slab sides are fine, it is the details that aren't that hot, indeed the poor detailing of guns actually make the models look like large models of small spaceships if that makes sense!
