11 Unique and Interesting Starship STLs (plus a comsat/satellite STL) with 3mm Rod Holes, All Presupported for Resin Printing. Unsupported versions, versions without rod holes, and presupported versions without rod holes are also included. Presupported files come in both flavors: .STL and .LYS. (Also Included: a 40mm-tall 3mm-diameter Twist Lock Rod STL and a 30mm Circular Twist Lock Base STL.)
These ships were designed as part of the Brave Sun Starship Miniature Kickstarter campaign which launched in September of 2024.
Includes the Zephyrian Onslaught Story-Based Campaign Booklet for free! The booklet incorporates these ships into 5 narrative missions you can play with a friend! Also includes a set of Aggressive AI cards. (It is required to have Brave Sun Starter Pack 2 for solo play against an AI opponent.)
You will get access to 3D printable Brave Sun ships, their custom/unique bases with embedded stats, a 40mm tall twist lock rod STL, and a 30mm Base.
Brave Sun ships are designed for the Twist Lock Rod system, meaning they are Twist Lock Rod Compatible. The Twist Lock Rod system allows you to keep your rods, bases, and ships separate but easy-to-assemble without the need for magnets or glue. They are also compatible with regular 3mm rods, except for the largest ships, the 2 dreadnoughts, which have 5mm rod holes. (5mm Twist Lock Rod and larger base also included to accomdate these ships.)
These ships are great for A Billion Suns, Full Thrust, Firestorm Armada, as well as other games, but they go best with the Brave Sun Starship Combat System for which they were designed.

Sizes of Brave Sun ships vary from small fighters that are about 25mm in length to corvettes, frigates, destroyers, all the way up to the Elysium and Eden Dreadnoughts over 100mm in length. (In the file names you'll notice only Fighters, Frigates, Cruisers, and Dreadnoughts because those are the only formal ship categories in the Brave Sun combat system in order to keep the game relatively simple. For example some ships that might be recognized as a Destroyer are fitted into one of the other categories.)
We recommend printing these ships at about a 45° to 55° degree angle, with the front end of the ship facing upward, and the bottom of the ship facing the build plate for the best quality. Some parts of these ships (some of the guns) are relatively thin, so remove supports with care.
.STL, Presupported .STL, and Presupported .LYS are all included for all models.
(Includes all stretch goals from the Kickstarter campaign)
Enjoy your new fleet, Admiral!
