The Solomani Fleet

[Ran Targas]

And they keep getting better and better! Bravo!

 

[mike wightman]

Very, very nice work yet again Andrew

 

[Andrew Boulton]

Nice. I like the pointy nosed wedge in the second row from the front, and the wedge just behind it too.

Yeah, I like those.

very nice. Is that one on the front the Solomani version of a modular cutter, with very 1999 Eagle-like pods on the sides? Even if not - all very cool.

It's actually a Patrol Cruiser. Not my fave design.

 

[Andrew Boulton]

Yay! Only 6 left! I can see light at the end of the tunnel!

This is probably the last preview:

Drools!

However, in light of this new evidence, I think some one should get an X-Boat message to Core right away, the Terrans are getting restless again.

Awesome as usual!

I'm sorry I missed the boat (this thread), but for some reason I can't seem to see to the first 5 previews. Any ideas on that? The 6th one looks great, and I'm really looking forward to seeing the completed work. The Solomani have needed more ships for a long time now!

 

[far-trader]

I think all the ships from previous previews are included in the latest preview so you didn't miss the boat, or ship, not one of them

 

[Andrew Boulton]

I deleted the earlier ones, but you've not missed anything.

Just two more ships left!

you have some really cool ship shapes there.
keep up the good work.

Me too, 'cos I get paid then!

I hope the TA ships wont be grey on grey, probably wouldn't print well.
Not sure I like the recurrent wedge theme, thought solomani ships showed more aslan influence. Mostly just plain angles and wedgies.
Hope the write up includes confederation ships and member state ships.

Still, not a criticism, just a personal preference, I think the actual ships are Okay.

Great, thanks! I really like them so far. I can't wait!

The book states that wedges are preferred. It was a nightmare coming up with so many variations!

 

[Theophilus]

Which Book?

Alien Module: Solomani (GDW)
Solomani and Aslan (DGP)

Applause & Anticipation

A bit unclear what a TA is myself but a burning question I must ask, will there be deck plans ?

Short for "Traveller's Aide".

 

[Theophilus]

So, it's a non-canon source?

Any Idea when it will be available?

None are planned, but if someone wants to volunteer...
