We’ve just picked up the hire van, so we’ll shortly be trekking over to Brigade HQ to load up and head off to the ExCel so set up the stand.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, here are the last additions to our Salute lineup. Firstly, some smaller Syrtian vessels for Imperial Skies to go with the two larger vessels previewed earlier this week<\/a>. A cruiser, destroyer and frigate make up the initial fleet, and we’ll have boxed fleet packs and also packs of the fighter and bomber with bases.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And lastly for Salute this year, a new Japanese battleship for the spaceships range. The mould for this only came online yesterday and we don’t have many in stock for tomorrow, so be quick!<\/p>\n
