I have had a bit of a look at the fleets and I think I like the look of the Sorylian Collective and the Relthoza starters.<br /><br />Sorylian is good but the ships all look very similar, the Relthoza however have a bit of variety.<br /><br />I wouldn't be worried that your ships aren't 100% level either mate. Looking on the spartan site it doesn't seem that even they can get them level either. I also think it would be very hard to notice if they were flying by themselves and not locked in a tight formation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4294433149486102147.post-28281245524719632282011-06-24T06:13:53.461-05:002011-06-24T06:13:53.461-05:00Not only do I think you could use these as part of...Not only do I think you could use these as part of a 40K campaign, I'm pretty sure I'm planning on it. Actually Spartan has an expansion planned called Firestorm Invasion. It's going to be all the planet surface combat. The scale is going to be around Flames of War size I believe. They are obviously intending it to be used in conjunction with FSA to make a integrated campaign.<br /><br />Haven't gotten a game in just yet, but once my wife's starter fleet is done, I'm all over it. The rules are pretty clear, and it seems like a game that is simple to learn, but possibly difficult to master due to the very different style of play from 40K.<br /><br />Oh and the starter kits are TRUE starter kits. You'll have a very playable fleet just from one kit. Add in just one more blister, and you're really at optimal fleet size for some good games.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04025957576219296032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4294433149486102147.post-66750809608308480552011-06-24T01:03:52.674-05:002011-06-24T01:03:52.674-05:00Sam,

The last shot of the fleet DEFINITELY makes me want to get some of these.<br /><br />Do you think Firestorm Armada could be played as part of a campaign for 40K? We were thinking about incorporating Battle Fleet Gothic but the FA models are a lot cheaper, would also allow me to take more of my money away from GW and give it to the little guys.<br /><br />Have you managed a game yet then?<br /><br />Seriously, well done, they look amazing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
