In the last few days, Spartan has posted a number of new previews for upcoming FA ships. Some of them look pretty sweet, if you ask me! Here is a link to the sub-forum:

I think this ship especially looks pretty nice; it has a very anime feel to it!

I think I've finally been converted !
On second thoughts, that banshee does look familiar somehow...

**BAWTRM**

Those Xelocian ships look like giant flying guns, you could just model them onto a Tau Battlesuit. Not a bad thing really, rather original design.

The Ba'Kash ships are a bit weird, are they intended to 'grab' other ships for boarding actions or is their pincer-like modular shape meant as some kind of weapon focus.

I really like those Rense ships, best looking models next to the Sorilians IMO.

**Mattlov**

Indeed, I like the Rense vessels as well. First faction I've seen for the game that I enjoy.

**Blacksails**

Looks like I'll be starting a second fleet...

**infinite_array**

Looks like I'll be getting rid of my Directorate...

**Kapton Morgunz**

The reinse Dreadnoaught looks like white base from gundum.

**Fathoms Reach**

Starting to see Spartan's painting guru (Spartan Giovanni) post some painted pictures of the new ships, such as the RSN Destroyers (presumed next ship) at http://www.ilnanonefasto.it/miniatura/178. Hopefully we'll start to see more soon, and find out what kind of release schedule they're planning.

**Mattlov**

Yeah, I'll be buying a Rense fleet.

Ships look better than the other fleets, and the inspiration from that paintjob gets the old starship combat itch back in full swing.

**Platuan4th**

Looks like I'll be building a Ba'Kash fleet to go along with my Dindrenzi.

I should really buy the book and deck one of these days.

**Achilles**

The Bakash and Rnse are the stars of this release. The other are... Ok.

**Sarge**

I also really like the RSN fleet. If Dystopian Wars takes off in my area I'll try and get folks into this game too.

Looks a lot more like the Albion and the Universal Century refit Pegasus class than that wannabe from Seed.

Kids today not knowing their roots...

Even more than that, look like a cross between a Pegasus and an Irish class from Zeta:
