Subject: [GZG] [OFFICIAL] Salute releases....!

Hi all,

The following NEW items will be launched at Salute this Saturday (21st);
they'll be up on the webstore next week for online ordering. We'll have stock
of all these at the show, plenty of the NSL ships but probably only a very
limited number of the new 15mm vehicles, so if you're coming along then come
and see us as early as you can!

For the New-style NSL fleet:

FT533 Light carrier (CVL) £7.00 FT534 Heavy carrier (CVH) £12.00
FT535   Missile Destroyer (DDM) - pack of 2     £2.50
FT536 Assault Transport (LSO) £5.00 FT537 Escort Carrier (CVE) £4.00 FT539
Strike carrier (CVS) £9.00 FT540 Heavy battleship (BBH) £6.00 FT546 Light
Cruiser (CL) variant type £2.00 FT547 Escort Cruiser (CE) variant type £2.50
FT551 New Light Fighters (pack of 6) £1.00 FT552 New Heavy Fighters (pack of
6) £1.00

This effectively completes the new-style NSL fleet, though we may add
just a few more odd classes and variants (support ships, variant fighter types
etc) at some point soon.

PLUS.... as the vacc-heads have had it their way for the last few
batches of releases, something for the (15mm) ground-pounders again!

We've JUST completed and moulded an all-new HIGH TECH GRAV TANK (in
15mm); when we did the first Grav releases last year, we said that
they represented the "early" applications of grav tech - and we
promised that some more cutting-edge vehicles would follow. So,
here's the first - great for higher-tech forces such as the UNSC
hardsuit troopers. APCs and other variants to follow soon, but we
wanted to get this first one out for the show! A 10-part (including
options) all-metal kit, with choice of 3 different gun barrels, 2
different sensor fits or laser point-defence system!
Plus at the other extreme (almost), we have a cute little
civilian/military hover pickup truck, ideal for supply hauling or
carrying around heavy weapons teams for your lower-tech or militia
forces; it comes in 2 parts with 2 alternative driver figures (in helmet and
field cap).

V15-18A         High-Tech Grav Tank (complete with all options) £8.00
each
V15-19A Light Hovertruck (with 2 driver figures)                £3.00
each

More pics of everything will be up on our webstore soon!

Hope to see some of you on Saturday.

Received my new style NSL/NAC fleets last week. Very nice. The new
models are a lot easier to put together than the older ones were.

Looks like I'll have to buy some more on Saturday however (assuming that the
trains are running).

Any plans on vehicles for the 25mm ground-pounders?

http://lists.csua.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gzg-lThis is wonderful
news. Yet more stuff for me to add to my shopping list as well as a force to
try and work the tech into.

This brings up a good question though. Has anyone ever developed a TO&E that
includes most or all of the GZG nifties.

Cringing because I'm not sure how many 15mm minis I bought a couple of nights
ago. 62 of those heavy bronze coins. Now I get to pay DJD to paint them.

Jon,

I'm curious what the exact interior dimensions of the Hover Truck are in

mm. I base my heavy weapons teams on 30 x 30mm bases which is why I ask.

Thanks,

Happy to be of service.... ;-)

Keep using 'em! The whole point of the new fleets is that they don't make the
old ones obsolete in game terms, just obsolescent older designs in the
background material. You can still happily mix old and new ships in the same
force.

Well, glad you like them!  :-)

I hate you, you have now ruined Christmas. AAAAAggrrhh.

What am I going to with my 100 odd N.S.L fleet ships, now, mmm sinker's.lol

They look so good that from now on, your other releases will have a bench mark
for us to compare them too. Can you live with the list saying " well the new
ship's look nice jon, but hey, there no as good as the N.S.L"

The 15mm stuff look's so good, my 25mm stuff is stareing at me quietly hopeing
I dont take them tatar's, thats eg "for a drive down to the local 2nd hand
hobby store" Stop crying F.S.E platoon and for god sake put your arms down.lol

Wow jon, you have been pretty busy with these new 15's and N.S.L, but enough
of the eye candy, where's my new Fullthrust 3 rule book? Please, oh please,
hey whys why nose going brown.lol

Hope you all have a ball at Salute, I'l be just happy to get some rain,

here in OZ.
