A new product with 143(?) SSDs, mostly real ships including a few unbuilt variants. We definitely want to send X-ships, EY-ships, non-Alpha, to their own products. I have not decided if we will send fighters to J3 and gunboats to K2. I plan to clean out and close the R14 topic. Anything left over from R13 will eventually be moved to an R14 topic.

This is an assembly space where I can pull together things that Petrick can consider for "the next R-module". No promises that anything I put here will be in the product.

While it will be the next number I didn't want to call this topic that because of confusing with a long-running topic with that number.

Obviously, light battleships will be included and will be a major hook.

stay tuned.

I would like to see a Federation Old Light Cruiser Leader to act as a counterpoint to the D6L, please.

A WYN shark ship that is like the hammerhead shark. The firing arcs should be interesting.

ISC Survey Carrier

By Thomas Mathews (Turtle) on Thursday, May 19, 2016 - 03:55 pm: Edit

Romulan Survey Carrier based on the Sparrow Hawk with single space fighters as opposed to heavy fighters on the scout carrier. Not sure what other changes would be needed to balance this ship against other survey carriers.

Lyran strike cruisers (and how they expanded into the Lyran command ships)...

By Ken Rodeghero (Ken_Rodeghero) on Monday, May 23, 2016 - 04:22 pm: Edit

I don't believe we have seen a Federation or Kzinti Light Battleship yet (Klingon, Romulan, Gorn, Hydran, and Lyran have all been published). The Klingon B9 could use some opponents.

By Ken Rodeghero (Ken_Rodeghero) on Monday, May 23, 2016 - 06:50 pm: Edit

Forgot that the ISC BBL (two of them, in fact) was already published, as well.

By Larry Lawhon (Elkhunter358) on Saturday, May 28, 2016 - 02:51 pm: Edit

How about heavy battleships (like the B11) for the other empires?

By Dixon Simpkins (Dixsimpkins) on Sunday, June 05, 2016 - 11:57 am: Edit

I'd like to have some more Fed PF Tenders.
If doing a set of 4, I'd suggest: PFT (CL hull), New Heavy PFT (NCA hull), DCS (with PFs), and a Light PFT (DW hull).

By Richard B. Eitzen (Rbeitzen) on Thursday, June 23, 2016 - 05:11 pm: Edit

I propose a couple of considered (but rejected) carrier escorts for the Hydrans, one based on the CR/SAR hull and the other based on the Gendarme.

In both cases heavy weapons are replaced with PH-Gs.

By Joe Carlson (Jrc) on Monday, May 23, 2016 - 03:11 pm: Edit

Federation: three ideas

1. X version of the FFB which would be the command ship for X-frigate squadrons.

2. A DNH version of the DNF.

3. An X-version of the OAL. This would also create an X-freighter.

By Michael Grafton (Mike_Grafton) on Sunday, May 29, 2016 - 10:18 am: Edit

middle years to just pre GW era LTT equivalents.

Lyrans, Kzinti, Gorn would probably be the most likely

SVC: I have no idea what this would be (light cruisers?). Worse, I'd be afraid that these things would still be around in Y168 and would totally screw up F&E.

Ship nomination:
Romulan Cormorant Minesweeper

A successor to the Pelican built to the same standard as the other Battlehawk variants.

Police gunboats

It is known that "security skiffs" were used for local law enforcement. It is known that skiff production was terminated to use the facilities for PF production. It is not illogical that a police version of a PF (not a leader, but with a shuttle/tractor/transporter) and reduced weapons might be created for such a mission.

It is also noted that many standard combat gunboats were operated in local defense units by police, army, reserve, guard, and private security units.

By Gary Carney (Nerroth) on Tuesday, June 28, 2016 - 08:07 pm: Edit

For what it's worth, I set up a separate thread in which to discuss what, if any, options might be viable to represent the Draco-Tholian ship Sojourner - which I probably should have mentioned in a separate post in this thread, rather than burying it underneath feedback on a different Tholian ship proposal...

Speaking of survey ships, I also wondered if there might be use for an Inter-Stellar Concordium HSR (based on the CA), and/or an NSR (based on either the CW or HCW); in order to backstop, augment, or replace current ISC SR operations.

By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Saturday, July 13, 2019 - 12:05 pm: Edit

Patrol carriers: war destroyer hulls with 12 fighters and no heavy weapons. The Kzinti one was published. Fairly obvious variant; if we decide to do them we can design them all in-house.

By James Hallmark (Jhallmark) on Saturday, October 13, 2007 - 04:39 pm: Edit

I will definately buy any product that contains more than 1 of the following:

Vudar BB
Seltorian BB*
Wyn Fish BB
Jindarian BB*
Orion BB
Big saucer Fed BB
ISC BB that is more in line with ISC standards.

This product seams like a good place to put them.

I particularly want the ships with a *.

By Steve Cole (Stevecole) on Monday, January 25, 2010 - 04:08 pm: Edit

I don't want EY ships in Module R13. They go in Y4.

By James Cain (Jcain) on Saturday, November 25, 2006 - 08:36 pm: Edit

CL#23, page 11: "Many races converted old hulls from the Early Years period into tugs which served for decades. (The Klingons had more than 25 old D4s converted into T4s in service at various times.) These old ships never show up in SFB as they were never _INTENTIONALLY_ allowed near conbat zones. Some of these will be in Module R8."

Perhaps some old EY-to-tug conversions ended up in combat zones by accident. Convoy escort duty and jumped by Orions/raiders perhaps?
