Anyone who’s been following the progress of our Pegasus Bridge<\/a> game will realise that I’ve had a rather frustrating time getting hold of a model of the bridge itself. The 3D computer model has been submitted to and rejected by Shapeways on three or four occasions, but the Shapeways team have been very helpful in pointing out ways we could fix it, and at last we came up with a set of solutions. A copy of the model finally arrived at Brigade Towers yesterday, and to say I was pleased would be the understatement of the century. Just take a look …<\/p>\n

The model is already on the painting table, ready for installation on our gameboards in the next week or two. There are also a bunch of other new items ready for our Shapeways store, but I’ll save those for later this week – I thought Pegasus deserved an entry all of its own.<\/p>\n

If you want your own, the model is available for sale now in our Shapeways store<\/a>. If anyone wants to pick one up at Salute, e-mail us<\/a> by the end of this week (March 31st)<\/strong> and we’ll ensure one is waiting for you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
