    Default Next Special ship pack?

    Does anyone know if there is one planned and what it will be? It would be nice if it was the HMS Surprise ;) .

    This thread seems to be about as close as we can get at the moment Philip.

    Do take special note as to what Diamond Back has to say, because he is the only one apart from Dave Manley who has the ear of Robert at Ares.

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.

    If Ares Games had the marketing nous, they would make them available for Christmas but I don't suppose that the Chinese manufacturers will let them do that.

    Not with Hasbro, Takara-Tomy and Mattel each dropping more coin there in a month than Ares all year and thus having the prime "4th Quarter" delivery-schedule slots all booked up... though they've been starting to move more to Vietnam too, my guess is part lower costs and part activist-investors playing politics at the Shareholder Meeting.
