I was working on LYRAN EPACK #2 and in assigning the stock number Jean discovered that THOLIAN EPACK #2 had never been uploaded. It was finished last January about when I spent two weeks in bed with the flu.
She is uploading that right now. 13 new ships and one you had before for only $5. What a deal. They're all small police ships, but still, it's like getting two packs in one, but better, as they're all NEW SHIPS NEVER AVAILABLE BEFORE.
BTW, I should finish LYRAN EPACK #2 (3 new ships, 2 from Captain's Log, five random ships, all for $5) today and LDR EPACK #2 (10 ships for $5 including two new ones) sometime in the next two weeks. I could finish it by Saturday but some of our other game systems need some love first.

Jean has uploaded the Tholian thing but it may not appear in the store for a day or two.
I finished the Lyran Pack #2 which involved (today) fixing the last four ship card glitches, writing the new scenario, and doing the counters.
The philosophy of these things is evolving. For a long time we did six ships for $5. We are upping that to 10 for $5 and promising to include two new ones, plus whatever ships were in Captain's Log, and then fill the pack with whatever comes to hand. We are trying to please three different groups: Those who want existing ships in PDF, those who want only new ships in PDF, and those who want only new ships and want them only in laminated cards.
The uniquely weird Tholian pack 2 has 13 new ships for $5 because, well, reasons. These are variants of two basic hulls so they were as easy to do as three or four new ships and ten existing ones.
The Lyran pack has 10 ships for $5 and is the new standard. Two new ships promised, in this case you get three for... reasons.

I wish every pack could contain all new ships, but....
There are those who want PDFs of existing ships.
and
Doing new ships is often a lot of work. An escort or scout or commando variant is an hour, a new ship like the Lyran DNW done from scratch is an entire day's work. I cannot do 10 or even six entire days work just for these ePacks.
