Superior Models' Starfleet Wars is back out again, but so far only
through
special order through William Char/Game Masters that I know of. You can
view
what's available at:

I just got my 30-ship order today. I'm verra happy with them. I have
some
ships (mostly Terran) from ~15 years ago when they were first out (has
it
really been that long??) and they haven't changed (ie, I picked up a few
duplicates :). Nice detail, good size (my god the SGDs are HUGE!!!!!)
This isn't the 25mm stuff, nor 6mm - 1/300th scale stuff; this is more
FT scale.
Maybe if this goes well William will be able to start carrying the
MAATAC
line of tanks again (which I'd like to see; never saw 'em before)
>BTW, 1/300th is the same as 6mm, right?
I think so, yeah.

are there

I get the bulk of my stuff either through mail-order (via friends :) hi
jim!)
or through The Armory, a local gameshop and games warehouse/distributor.
This is mostly starship minis and Future Wars tanks, btw. I'm only
slowly
breaking into 25mm stuff.
