The zho ships are okay, but I agree, we haven't seen them before and aren't really attached to them like we are to the AHL and others.

The AHL is 5.5cm long including the goose neck, about 8mm high including the fin and about 8mm wide not including the drive. You can see the big bay weapons, the 4 fuel shuttles on the bottom, the spinal gun tube and that little runway the fighters use just on top of the goose neck

The Power Projection rules are quite nice and the fleet box allows you to convert Traveller HG2 into the power projection stats. Don't think anyone did the 2300 ships. Ad Astra do a pack of pinnaces, a pack of 2 scouts and another pack for a A1 free trader. They are okay but don't seem to match the scales of RAFM et.c

Yes you are right about special orders. I picked up an extra plankwell and two more AHLs. They will cost up and send them out. But this was before they did the blister packs.

Cheers
Richard

And when Richard says, "special orders," my impression is that means
onesies and twosies of any of the ships they make, rather than having to
buy the full box at one time. I picked that up from a query on their
discussion board from a guy that wanted to pick up the ships gradually
without honking off his wife.

Anyone know if they ever got around to making the 2300 ships? I saw lots
of mention of them on their site, including discussion that "2300 won't be
in PP, it will be in Squadron Strike" because it's not vector movement."
"Yes it is," "No it isn't," "Yes it is," "No it isn't." Actually it isn't,
but does have elements of what I described as "pseudo-vectors" if you are
running your SW, based on the ratio of SW jumps to the time it takes to
turn the axis of your ship. Not really vectors, though.
