Yah. I'm currently waiting for my buddy to order miniatures for himself from
GW, so I can get in to the order and get some more of those

beautiful ships. The Empire gothic-style fleet is my European Union
Space Fleet (since they regulate everything else, it's only appropriate that
the ships look about the same...), and Eldar are SCA (Sea of China Alliance)
Japanese ships. The minis that come with the game are very nice, and I'm
hoping they're available separately through GW mail order.

The nice thing about them (the ONLY nice thing about GW) is that if you order
minis they no longer produce, they will cast them for you, if they

still have the molds! I've bought two damaged copies of the game oover time,
so I have four each of the minis that come with it. The bad thing is, two of
the Eldar ships no longer have the sails (damaged when I moved), but they
still look very nice. I also have a very large force of

the other Gothic ships (about 60 of them, I think), making up a very nice
space fleet, boosted by Micro Machines Star Destroyers and various Klingon
ships. The flagship of the fleet is naturally the ERTL Star Destroyer.

Only in metal, for £5 per ship. Last time I asked, the plastic sprues weren't
available:(

Heretic!

Well... since I shave excessive wings off my Silent Death models, my opinion
probably doesn't count...
