Very well layed out booklet for a multi role transport. Excellent presentation and I like the Layers used in the PDF file to show (or hide) cargo and onboard vehicles for printing

A nice little spaceship perfect to be the first home of a group of adventurers. Old, beat-up, cramped, but is home! Small and common enough to not draw attention wherever it passes, yet it has space for weapons, smuggled cargo, hidden fugitives and adventure! I really liked the character bios that came with it, the crew makes the ship after all. And even if you use your own crew, the atmosphere that all that material creates is perfect to inspire your campaign.

Simply amazing. Beautiful. And helped me flesh out a Crazy Ivan direction my PCs took this week quickly.
I can't recommend the Future Armada series enough...

If you have a need for a good quality spaceship with detailed background and excellent plans (including battlemaps for miniature use), take a look at this. The Renegade class of starships, we are told, was designed as a multipurpose vessel capable of hauling cargo, moving passengers, exploration, reconnaissance, and light combat duty... just the sort of thing the average party of star-faring adventures would love to get their hands on, whatever ruleset you are using.
The background information is copious, written in a 'future history' style that brings the whole vessel alive within the context of the alternate reality your characters inhabit. There are detailed views from different angles, pictures of the ship in use (on orbit and landed), detailed deck plans with descriptive notes... and includes a dedicated kitchen, something often left out of starship designs but something that would delight one of my Traveller characters who doubles as chef and jump-drive technician! Even the couple of vehicles - a shuttle/life boat and a wheeled rover - are treated with the same level of detail, the same care and attention (and lots of pictures).
And that's just the main booklet you get in your download. There are two further books, one being a set of 'map pages' that can be printed, trimmed and used whenever you need a large scale map of the habitable portions of the ship - combat, especially if you use miniatures, springs to mind. The other has the same floorplan in one massive image - if you want to use a virtual tabletop program to show your players where they are, or have access to a commercial print facility it may be of use.
Just lovely. Just the sort of ship in which to travel the galaxy, getting into all kinds of adventure...

Future Armada, the gold standard for starship deckplans unveils another excellent ship, this one similar in size to the Lakota, and with a hull design that fits in perfectly with the Serenity/Firefly setting.
The previews speak for themselves to the products quality, and this one has a couple new features, it takes advantage of the "layers" feature of PDF's, allowing users to easily hide cargo/shuttles, grid lines etc, for custom printing of the product.
Also of note this ship no longer offers up d20 style stats, and instead features a 1-5 star rating on things such as offensive capability, durability, maneuverability, relative cost, etc, letting GMs easily convert the ship to the rule system of their choice.
Over all the formatting changes help give the deckplans a streamlined feel and make it easier to use then ever before, and best of all, don't add any additional cost to the product.
5 Stars all the way.
On a side note this ships appearance/contours (Like some others of the future armada line) are also streamlined enough to make an excellent submarine for sea faring sci games like Blue Planet; or any ocean based adventures your Shadowrun group may get involved in.

I once joked here that writing reviews of the Armada ship plans is somewhat pointless. Read the ship description ... look at the preview pictures. If it all looks like something you'd use in your gaming, buy it.
These inexpensive deckplans from Ryan Wolfe are, pound for pound, the best out there, plan and simple.

Yay another ship to add to the collection. Looks like a flexible and useful design as well. Only one thing. . . I'm not sure having a shuttle bay right behind the command centre is a good idea. Other than that this looks good.

This map is awesome.
I'd like to see some sci-fi bases or alien buildings from this publisher.
I highly recommend this map!!

Vanguard Station is a nice set for running a good claustrophobic space horror game. Nowhere to run and no where to hide! The options for both full color and line drawings are nice along with a "GM's map" version for easy notation. Like all in this series, a real gem!

Very good ship and design.
I was expecting something little bigger (for my lost-in-space campagin) but it's an excellent work!

This ship is beautifully done and accurately executed. I used it far away from its original purpose and puzzled a SSV-Normandy-clone for a MassEffect-P&P-game from its parts. It almost hurt to do that to a wonderful design, but the result made up for it. :-) All parts are very comfortable to adapt, and that seems to be the case for all Ki Ryn Studios ships. I can highly recommend these for any setting.

This is a really nice type of product: a fully-conceived and illustrated adventure location, complete with inhabitants and a backstory, but easily customizable and completely system-independent. Read through the descriptions, print and assemble the battlemap, drop in appropriate monsters from your favorite system, and you’re ready to go! The product’s main weakness, on the other hand, is the mixture of artistic styles on the battlemap, where harsh black lines clash with photorealistic textures, and the attempt to use Photoshop beveling to make the water appear recessed actually has the opposite effect, making it appear “puffy.” For only $3.95, however, you can probably overlook these relatively minor aesthetic flaws.

All of the Future Armada series are amazing. This particular starship, and it's obvious inspiration were the first purchase I made in the series, and were so amazing that I have since purchased everything available as soon as it comes out. I cannot recommend this series highly enough.

The Future Armada series are still the best ship plans available. Beautifully rendered and full of character. Well worth the money!
