15mm Sci Fi News from Critical Mass Games

.
Whilst my boots have been very solidly dirtside over the past week to ten days, the great galactic manufactoriums have continued pouring out 15mm Sci Fi goodness.

Wave 3 of Critical Mass Games acclaimed 15mm Sci Fi range are about to be released and will introduce the first Arc Fleet Heavy Grav AFVs plus the eagerly awaited for Laser Defence Platform.

First off, let's talk TANKS! Critical Mass Games will be releasing two versions of the ARC Fleet heavy tank, the Mark I turret version, a buttoned up resin turret, and the Mark II Command turret that comes with two crew and two hatches which can be positioned as required. Both variants will be supplied with three barrel options, the rail gun, the cannon, and the energy gun, and two missile packs.

My thoughts? Well thought out, nicely detailed and good choice of optional arnament. Another example of John Bear Ross's master craftmanship, these tanks are substantial bits of kit to dominate the tabletop with. These will be the King Tigers of the Sci Fi armour world!

Next....let's look at the Laser Defence Platform. The LDP is £3.20 and contains 2 random crew from packs AFSR1 & AFSR4.

PLEASE NOTE:

Critical Mass Games are finally moving server this weekend after a prolongued battle with the service provider. Craig hopes this will be resolved by Monday, 26th October, when these new releases become available.



Cheers
