ADB Releases Ships in October 2019!

On October 4, 2019, ADB released a total of 75 new items to its shop on Shapeways. There were four Tholian web play aids released earlier in mid-September to celebrate the release of A Call to Arms: Star Fleet, Book 2. That brings our shop to nearly 1,800 items. There are some styles of ships designed to work within the price increase that Shapeways imposed. Notably we added empire-specific shuttles and battle stations. We also added a new, larger scale that we named the 2500 Scale (Prestige Scale) which is 1/2500. These larger ships are perfect for one-on-one tabletop duels. They can always be used as a display model when not being used for battles.

The Federation gets a brand new ship, the Corvette, in both the "regular" (gridded) and "Fed Classic" (smooth body) versions. The ship is already in A Call to Arms: Star Fleet (ACTASF). It will get a Federation Commander ship card in the Communique for November. It will appear in Module R13 for Star Fleet Battles. The Federation also gets its Augmented Base Station, Battle Station, and Augmented Battle Station.

The Klingons gain their Augmented Base Station, Battle Station, and Augmented Battle Station. They get their empire-specific administrative shuttlecraft, too. Finally they get their SparrowHawk and SparrowHawk+ Light Cruiser (RKL). The "+" indicates it is a late-war "Cranked Arrow" design in the style of the Starline 2500 Romulan ships which these are based on. The RKL is in the new ACTASF book.

The Romulans get their ChickenHawk Gunboat/PF Tender along with their empire-specific administrative shuttlecraft.

The Tholians gain some play aids to help mark their Tholian Web. They have 1" Web Panels (20 of them), 2" Web Panels (12 of them), and 2" Web Panels with the bases built in (8 in a set). They also get a set of Tholian Web Anchors.

The Seltorians get their Fast Cruiser, Fast Light Cruiser, and Survey Cruiser. They also get their empire-specific administrative shuttlecraft.

The Gorns gain their Epanterias-K Strike Cruiser and Tyrannosaurus-H Heavy Dreadnought in both the regular and refitted versions. (Both of these ships are in the new ACTASF book where the Tyrannosaurus-H is known as the Spinosaurus.) The Gorns are also the first to see the new 2500 Scale (Prestige Scale) with the Allosaurus Buck Battlecruiser in both the regular and refitted versions.

The Kzintis get their Command Cruiser, Fast Battlecruiser, Heavy Dreadnought, New Command Cruiser, and Police Cutter. There is also a sprue with both the Police Cutter and Police Corvette on it. While the Command Cruiser is ACTASF1.2, the others are in the new ACTASF book. They also get their empire-specific shuttlecraft.

The Orions get their Dreadnought and Gunboat/PF Tender. The Dreadnought is in the new ACTASF book.

The Hydrans get their Mongol-H and Tartar-H heavy medium cruisers.

The Lyrans and their wayward county of the Lyran Democratic Republic get their Local Defense Frigate.

The Inter-Stellar Concordium gets its Scout, based on a destroyer hull.

The Vudar gain a War Destroyer Scout along with their empire-specific shuttlecraft.

The WYNs gain their Green Shark Strike Carrier and Tigershark Heavy Battlecruiser. Either ship is available as a one-piece ship or a kit that needs some assembly.

In the simulator you can fight the Qari BM1 Destroyer and T64 Heavy Cruiser. Since the turret for their weapons is a separate piece, you can aim the turret where you want!

Hooray for the return of the "ball bridge" Condor. I'm always a fan of the classics.

Great work, Matt Lawson.

Agreed. Glad I waited to pick up a Condor, now I can have the classic look.
