    We're going to need a bigger board.
    On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of countless millions who at the dawn of victory lay down to rest, and in resting died.

    uh... so two new Corvette-sized ships for the Rebels, and Imps get the finger? nah, they're not like that...
    They're probably going to put out Imperial equivalents simultaneously methinks... Lancer or Tartan class probably and... uh I dunno... some transport or other...

    a 10 Meter long board? so that the ISD can move a bit? ^^

    Y-wing: 5.9cm
    Corvette: 55cm
    Nebulon B: 1.1m
    Mon Cal Cruiser: 4.4m
    Imp Class I SD: 5.9m
    Proper scale of larger kits. ISD just wouldn't be possible, if the Corellian Corvette is 90usd the ISD would be close to one thousand assuming price and size follow in a linear fashion.

    From [URL="http://hobbybeforeidie.blogspot.co.uk/2013/08/x-wing-new-ships-and-new-scale-ffg-gen.html"]here[/URL]
    Hard to tell but the corvette looks a little bit small.

    The models are utterly beautiful though.

    Edit: Ah it's not to scale, bit small. They do talk about it as a sort of precedent for changing the scale of larger ships.

    Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!

    I have been looking for a large-enough, not necessarily perfect-scale Imperial Star Destroyer to use as a backdrop piece of scenery in battles. :-)

    Not found one yet though... :-( The most suitable is sadly a very, very expensive LEGO kit - the rest are just too small...

    There aren't any that I'm aware of. All too small.

    I recommend watching the video from the website I linked to, very interesting:
