Our Squadron Commander<\/a> range of starfighters stand as a range (and game – you can download the rules<\/a> for free) in their own right, but also do double duty as air support for our 6mm SF range. It’s been a while since the last release, but we have some new models prepped and ready to go at the Joy of Six<\/a> on Sunday. I’ve only had time to very quickly wash and drybrush the models (and drop the Hamerkop, snap off the base and have to replace it…), full paint jobs will follow when they’re actually released<\/p>\n

The South African Confederation and Pacific Federation both get two fighter types, one derived from their existing fighter types in the spaceship range while the second is a new model.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The South African Petrel multi-role fighter is joined by the Hamerkop heavy interceptor, which boasts plenty of guns and an armoured frame.<\/p>\n

The PacFed Sea Wasp attack fighter now gets an escort in the shape of the small and nimble Weta interceptor.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

All of the models will be available individually and in flights of four with flying stands.<\/p>\n
