I don’t have the book at hand, so I don’t remember the exact wording, but it was to the effect of “Players may note the Romulans have the most dreadnought designs. This is because they are destined to rule the galaxy - just ask them.”

I wanted to do the Demonhawk version because:
1) I have the Demonhawk so using it as the base is practically free.
2) I have never liked the Mega/Omnihawks. The Demonhawk looks like someone tried to design it from the ground up. The MegaOmnihawk look like hack jobs designed in a single all-nighter after a full bender and a blurry picture of the Firehawk.

The Demonhawk-GG has a default BP compliment of 74 with the ability to push that to 140 total. That's awesome. It also has six GAS shuttles and an HTS shuttle.

One extra philosophical note: I try to never modify the base of a modular ship unless there is no alternative. This was truly driven home to me with gunboats. Both the MRN and STH variants have some disadvantages because of that intentional restriction and they results are better for it.

So are you thinking LegionHawk is just an informal name for a DMH-GG?

"a single all-nighter after a full bender and a blurry picture of the Firehawk."

Romulan Ale will do that...cheers Mike! :)
