UPDATE 10 FEB 2026 TUESDAY
I have signed the contract for the new 3d printer site. It will take a few days for signed hard copies to get back and forth. In the meantime he will get busy building the website. It will take a week or two for him to get the site built and the photos populated on it. He will start with a few of the 7000s and we'll add more ships and empires and scales every month.
Yesterday Jean gave me the last of the proofreading for CIVIL WARS and I made the fixes. Jean might get the changes checked this week, and we will keep moving forward through the last steps to get the rulebook into the PDF store and the counters and charts onto the cart. We won't have final hard copy rulebooks for a few weeks.
Petrick has reviewed six older SSD books and I have sent the notes on one of them to the new SSD artist for him to make fixes. We will get these out in the coming weeks but the rulebooks for those old products will take a lot longer, and some won't get done this year. Please do not pester Jean with questions about when the rulebooks will get updated. She doesn't know because Petrick and I haven't told her. Ask me if you want an update but I'm just going to say that the latest update is on the BBS. You were warned.
Petrick finished the Orion MSSB and Jean made all the fixes but only then did we get one last report with hundreds of changes that have to be made and checked. This will take a while but I did about 1/3 of that report yesterday (the easy 1/3 that just amounted to the stuff we had already found and fixed). The hard 2/3 is yet to be done.
STARMADA RUMORS OF WARS is done and will be released at the same time as Civil Wars.

Having more SSDs in PDF for easy printing is great and I for one am more than happy to happy to get those sooner and updated rulebooks later.

Update on Updated SSD books 10 Feb
NOTE: This is about SSD books. The associated RULEBOOKS are months from revision, some of the years away. When we have release information on a RULEbook I will let you know. Until then any questions will be referred to this update.
F1, F2, C4, R7, R10 are done, checked by SPP, and on my desk. It takes hours to transcribe Petrick's notes into an email to Nick S to make fixes but I will do these as I have gaps in other projects.
R8 has been done by Nick, checked by Petrick, and I have after three days of work sent there report to Nick so he can make fixes.
I think Nick has already done all the fixes to R5.

In answer to your question, the drone rack refit increases the reloads for plasma-D racks, even though they are not drone racks.
