Crabbok's Video from Gencon shows the back of the Huge ship conversion kit. It appears as there is a shot of the new maneuver tool on the back.
The tool is at 5:04
New Huge Maneuver tool
Interesting. From what I can see, it looks very much like the old tool - just expanded to accommodate the higher speed maneuvers. I wonder how they will handle the zero speed banks.

If I was to take a guess. You place the tool as if you were going to bank but instead of sliding up to the 1 or 2 or the new 3 you just pivot the ship.
Anyone speak French and can comment on this video from France showing unboxing of Epic ships?
Wow the aft end swings wide...
Man, how did they get that? It’s not supposed to be out until December right?
Just looking at the tool... is it me or does that look like the same plastic as the new maneuver template set that just came out?

Looks it to me as well.

That was the first thing I thought as well.
Do we know how many of the new plastic bases will come with the conversion kit? I hope more than 1. . .

I'm French. You're right, they say it's the same plastic (so this kind of ugly grey / silver cheap plastic).

2 new plastic bases in the box. There's only one size of base (e.g. for a "small" epic like the Gozanti and a "big" one like the CR-90) with 4 slots to adjust width between pegs. Bases have a slot to put the maneuver template for accurate movement.
double post.
