- 4 new EDF miniatures for Star
Blazers Fleet Battle System will
soon be available plus more may be on
the way. Here is the latest
message from Musashi Enterprises:
I have been
informed by Grim Reaper Casting that the
production of the long anticipated EDF
mini's has begun.
Hopefully, the
first batch will be shipped to me around
the end of the month. Once received I
will post a message on the forum site as
well as on the official Musashi website:
www.starblazersonline.com.
A new price
structure will also be posted at that
time. Expect the 4 new mini's to be in
the $10.00 ea. price range with no
discount plan as with the older mini's.
The 20% discount will not be applied to
any of the new releases since production
costs have increased. Also, there is no
20% discount on the Galman sub, since
this is an out of production item.
Along with the 4
new mini's we are also releasing a separate
package of the battlecraft movement
stands. These can be used for a number
of basing options. These are the same
round b/c stands you receive in each
battlecraft pack, but now you can
purchase them as a separate item (8 to a
package). Price.$4.00 per pack.
Other space gaming
projects that will relate to the
existing Starblazers universe are in the
works and will be announced via the
forum or on the Musashi website when
appropriate.
Keith Johannsen
Musashi Enterprises, Inc.
On
the Star
Blazers FBS Yahoo Group, there has
been discussion on new miniatures, and
Musashi has a proposal where
gamers pre-pay for the miniatures in
the works to cover the $1500 sculpting
costs (minimum $50 pledge which is
about 5 ships). A poll on this
group indicated the most requested new
minis are the Shinano, Radetsky, and
Musashi plus a Yamato refit could also
be done. There is still
discussion going on so join in and
help the creation of new minis for
this game or contact narn@aol.com
for more information.

- Module
II: Dark Nebula
is back from the printers and is now
available.
Keith
from Musashi
has made the following comments
about Module
II:
-
it
is 296 pages and 3/4 of an inch thick
-
it includes everything you need to
play, you don't need the core rule
book,
including all the ships from the
original rulebook and updated rules
-
it is currently available only from Musashi,
either directly or at a convention (Historicon
& GenCon)
7/1/2001
- Keith posted another update on Module
II to
the Official Forum.
I
checked out the advance copy of the
rules at the printers on Wednesday
6-26-01.
So,
the book is actually being printed as
I type this. Lordy, Lordy, miracles do
happen!
As
of today, I am still being told that I
can expect to have the books delivered
to me by 7-3-01. Hopefully, this
will occur without any unforeseen
delays.
People
have already started to order the new
rule book. If I receive the books in
time before I leave for Origins on the
4th, I will
attempt to ship them out.
Otherwise, I will start to ship them
on the 10th of July, after my return.
Orders
can be placed with Musashi at
1-414-383-7791 or Narn@aol.com My
answering machine is on, so leave a
message and phone number if I am not
here.
The
price of the Dark Nebula Module is a
flat $35.00 plus $6.00 priority mail
shipping fee. Total $41.00.
Musashi
Enterprises Inc, will be attending
Origins and GenCon we have events
scheduled for both of these shows.
We could use some help at GenCon with
running events-is anyone interested?,
if so contact me directly. I
will also be attending Historicon in
July. I won't have a table this year,
probably next year, but I will have
copies of the rule book with me.
If anyone is attending Historicon and
wants to get a copy of the new rules
let me know.
I
am trying to arrange to have at least
2 new packs of miniatures released for
GenCon. These would be the
Gamilon BattleCruiser, and the Gamilon
BattleCarrier II, with the nice big
gun!
6/24/2001
- Dark
Nebula
is at the printers! Here is
Keith's message:
The
Dark Nebula Module II rulebook/techmanual
has been turned over to a printer as
of Monday of this week.
I
finally received the cover artwork
from Voyager so the printer currently
has everything he needs to complete
the job.
As
of yesterday, things are still on
schedule. Hopefully it will
remain that way, but as they used to
say on one of my favorite tv shows of
the 1960's (actually Stingray),
'Anything can happen!'
The
earliest I can expect to get the books
in my hands, will be July 3rd.
The day before I leave to do the
Origins Show in Columbus, Ohio
(July 5-8).
Therefore,
the earliest day I can start shipping
orders out will be around July 10th.
Provided I have the books as promised
by the printer.
The
book will cost $35.00, plus about
$6.00 for priority shipping if the
order is mailed in the US or Canada.
Overseas orders must contact me
directly for shipping costs.
There
is no discount for Mod II it is $35.00
plus shipping. We can accept Visa,
Mastercard, or Money Orders.
People
can begin to place orders with Musashi.
But note that I will closed on June
23-24, and July 4-9 due to show
commitments.

- More info on Dark
Nebula - Module II
from Keith at Musashi
as
posted
on the Official Forum:
Voyager
Entertainment Inc., has approved the
Dark Nebula Module 2.
There
are still a few minor editing
operations and some final input from
Voyager before the book can go to the
printer. I am hoping to
accomplish this in the next week or
so.
The
target date is, I hope, to have it
available for sale at the Origins
Convention in July (5-8) held in
Columbus, Ohio.
When
I am informed by the printer as to
when I will have the book in my hands
there will be a general announcement
on this site and our web page.
Until then please don't order the
book. Final pricing is provisional at
this time. Voyager has the final word
in this and some last minute changes
could occur. After all they are
fliping the bill for all of this.
Further
information about the contents of the
book will be posted soon. I hope
to arrange a general chat session in
the near future so we can all actively
discuss it. I am looking forward
to this immensely.
Musashi
is putting on quite a number of gaming
events at Origins and GenCon this
year. If any of you can attend
these conventions we would be happy to
see you there and to have you
participate in the games. Or run games
yourself!

- It has been a while since there has
been any word on the Dark
Nebula
module. Finally a bit more info
just came out on the SBFBS Forum from
'Hardlec':
The
dark nebula module is in the final
playtest stage, and several key
elements are ready for production. It
will be ready for sale to retailers
soon, and is being sold to
distributors at GAMA this week.
Musashi
is still in business, and Voyager
still has the rights to Star
Blazers,
and there is no change in status for
either in the forseeable future.
IF
ANYONE HEARS OTHERWISE: contact
Hardlec1@aol.com or Narn@aol.com.
Someone has been spreading rumours
that SBFBS is gone. This is decidely
NOT TRUE. If your store owner can't
get merchandice, have him/her contact
the e-mail addresses above.
So
it looks like a May release plus the
20% off sale is still on!
