BITS at Salute this weekend - 21st April 2007
One of the biggest wargaming conventions, doors open at ExCel 10am to 5pm. The show promises to be bigger and better than last year, with entry for £9 on the day.The first 4000 entrants get a couple of free LOTR miniatures, there's an absolute pile of gaming and miniatures demonstrations, participation games and traders, ranging from Ancients to Science Fiction.
BITS will be hosting participation games of Power Projection and At Close Quarters at our trade stand (TD041 against the West wall). We'll have copies of all our products (including Cold Dark Grave) as well as a huge pile of other second-hand and new Traveller books.
We will also be taking advance orders for the new Ad Astra Traveller starship miniatures which have been specially designed for Power Projection!
BITS members will get a special discount on our products (in addition to the usual 10%) for finding our stand at the show.
Details here.
Cold Dark Grave and Power Projection: Escort now available in the USA
Ad Astra now taking orders...
Ad Astra Games have announced that they are taking pre-orders for the first two miniatures fleet boxes for Power Projection, plus they now have the US edition of Power Projection: Fleet available to order.

If you're interested in the chat about these new models, have a look at Ad Astra Games' forums.
Power Projection to be printed in the USA

BITS are
proud to announce closer ties with yet another game
publisher. Following on from our collaboration with
Jon Tuffley at Ground Zero Games to
produce our much-applauded
Traveller starship combat system
Power Projection, we are
now beginning printing of the Power
Projection: Fleet rules through Ken
Burnside at Ad Astra Games in the
USA.
We continue to have stock of the original UK
printings of both Power Projection:
Escort and Fleet, but this
agreement allows us to produce and distribute the
updated version of Fleet more easily
in the USA. We will continue to stock and distribute
the original UK printing to distributors, mail order
customers and at conventions, but will replace these
with the US-printed version over time.
We will only be printing Fleet at Ad
Astra; though Escort is a useful,
and fun, lead-in to Power
Projection, the economics of printing meant
it wasn't worth producing Escort in
the USA: for our first out-source to Ad Astra we
wanted to focus on the complete rules set in
Fleet and see how it went.
We intend to collaborate further with Ken and his
team at Ad Astra on future projects, just as we
continue to work very closely with Jon at Ground Zero
Games with our upcoming Power Projection:
Reinforcements book.

Power Projection site updated
This is a conversion of
the Traveller T20 Saberwolf Block 1
Fleet Destroyer into a Power Projection SSD. If you
want the full details on the ship (the blurb and High
Guard style stats and picture), you'll need to buy
the excellent Traveller's Aide #7: Fighting
Ships from RPGNow or QLI directly.
Have fun blowing things up!
