New KS Dropship Questions
« on: 13 January 2024, 21:14:57 »
Not sure where else to ask, but has the dimensions of the new Kickstarter Dropships been mentioned anywhere? Doing a bit of advance planning as far as foam goes, and curious to figure out just what is going to be required.

Also curious to what color the SLDF painted their Droppers, but that's another issue all together.

Olive green or drab green is what the  Star League painted drop ships.

A map scale dropship would cover 7 hexes, so that's a start. Also, an aerodyne is a nominal 5 levels tall and a spheroid 10, so ~4.5 and ~9 inches tall.

They'll be roughly the same size as the Iron Wind resin map-scale DopShips, if anyone has their dimensions.

Nope.

All Star League large spacecraft are painted in a combination of light gray, dark gray, and a third color unique to the world of construction.

Olive drab is just for ground units.
