Are there any 3rd company ship models out there that resemble the UNSC and Covenant from Halo Fleet Battles? By that I mean fit the general aesthetic of either faction, not necessarily copy though that'd be nice. For instance, the NSL Lutzow class Destroyer from Full Thrust sort of reminds me of the Poseidon class Light Carrier from Halo 4. Not as smooth though...

I've probably recommend this game as long as you don't mind board game quality plastics (less sharp than HFB).

Is that out at retail already? If so, how does it compare to the FFG prepaints?

@warboss

Wow, thanks. The Amycyles Faction looks a lot like the UNSC, especially the Frigate, Destroyer, and Crusier. The Phoebe Faction doesn't look like the Covenant, but those angular lines and spikes remind me a lot of a Promethean Fleet, which would be pretty cool. As for the plastic/lack of detail, all I do is spray paint the ships in their faction color so that shouldn't be a problem. Thanks again!

There is also the Bandai Mecha Collection. The ships are very affordable on HObbyLinkJapan, and sometimes Amazon.

Less than $5 for this guy, and he is a great model.
