Here we have the Graffi (on the left) and the Phact (on the right). The Graffi are predominantly engineers while the Phact have been spreading their colonies across the galaxy of late, threatening many of their neighbors. Uktabi, you can play as many of these as you want and I fully expect you to break these guys during playtesting! Folks have asked for pics of the raw metals and here they are:   |

Cant say Im impressed with these sculpts - sorry guys but I wont be buying either, no matter what the species do. Still waiting on AE-Bounty though - do we have an estimated time frame? I need a good set of rules to go with my GW figs

The Klaatu human guy looked really cool, hope to see more of these coming! Might get a few of those and turn them into Imperial Assassins!

Quite a few of the human sculpts would work well for other games. The test game last night was a riot not one shot was fired in anger (unless you count Drew getting pissed at the door that he could not destroy). Ship combat is going to be a very popular style of play from what I have seen so far.  I think over all the miniatures in the line are going to have a bit of something for everyone's taste. |

Ship combat? Oh this sounds very interesting...what can we expect? Zero gravity, misfires being very dangerous (kind of like shooting in an airplane) and so on? |

Gah! Hurry up and release this so I can give you my money. You want my money right?  I'm just itching for scifi game that isn't 40K right now, even though I just got into that game, it's rapidly proving itself to be a headache. Oh, and now that I think of it, those miniatures would look a lot better to me if I just added a few extra bits of gear on the miniature, just to break up those smoother areas. Thankfully, I have leftover packs and stuff from AE-WW2 models. |

Scenarios taking place onboard starships or space stations are a hoot and really change the way the game plays. Out playtest games have the feel of Necromunda and Space Hulk wrapped together with the AE-WWII rules. Awesome stuff! |

that's wicked- sounds like maximum compatability with the rumours of plastic board tiles being included with the new space hulk!

I think some sort of clausterphobia rules should be included in there too. Hmm, or perhaps I'm being too difficult about it... |
