LOTGH starships and comments

I didn't intend the 'Age and Complexity' to be for eveyone to
introduce themselves, but I think it did show up that most are much
more experienced than myself in gaming! And that finding opponents is
tough, so PBem and solo play options are very very useful, but solo
play isn't really supported. Most people on this list don't have
any trouble with scenarios, as they have been at it for years it seems..

Jon (GZG), can you (try and) put some solo play stuff in the Fleet Book
please...
You also need more publicity... a great many SF starship fans have
never heard of FT , and would play it, even without being hard core
gamers, which seems to be your main market....if you put some more 
backstory in it, at least send a press release to SF&FM....

But anyway, went to WonFes in Tokyo Sunday and picked up some 'Legends
Of Galactic Heros' [in japanese it means something more like 'a really
really long long, never ending battle history, that just goes on and
on',
or that is what some friends told me 8^) ]resin and white metal space 
ships so you can see what they look like. They aren't gaming miniatures,
unless your using the MU of 10" or so..

This is the image that most have seen:

Just these 2 ships cost me 9,500yen, and they have a couple of
dozen ships from each side you can make up.
