My Communique wishlist, in no particular order:

Fed Fast Cruiser
Orion CA
Squadron-scale Starbase

The squadron scale starbase is in Battleships Attack.

Fed fast Cruiser is in Booster #4.

Orion heavy cruiser is in Booster #22.

The main issue with those three units is that all are currently published (with laminated ship cards, no less), and Communique is now generally devoted to publishing ships that have never been published before, not reprinting existing ship cards. As such, it is highly unlikely any more ships with published ship cards will again appear in Communique.

In the case of ship cards that have been reprinted in Communique, back when that was done, the idea was to provide the base set of ships from Klingon Border/Attack and Romulan Border/Attack so that players could use them in conjunction with the Reference Rulebook for a low-cost entry point. But you can't do that with *all* ships (especially Booster-only ships) or you eliminate ADB's ability to support the game at all. Obviously, other ships were done, too, over time, but all of the necessary ships have been done, and no more are being added with the current form of Communique.

I'm really enjoying the X ships, so more of those would be great.
It's something I really didn't think I had an interest in at all (I really like Middle Years stuff), but playing the scenarios from Communique has got me hooked.

ADB is restricted in the ships they are allowed to use. They cannot publish any ships from the Star Trek franchise outside what they have already done. Therefore, those two ships are off-limits for ADB to use.

To be clear, we're not only not allowed to use them, we're not allowed to tell anyone where to find non-official SSDs for them. If you find them and post a link here (or offer to send someone a link) we'll be legally required to delete it. Paramount is understandably unforgiving of "wink and grin" workarounds for their copyrights.

I would love one for the USS California with the ship on a California flag background

This is actually a thread to ask for ships to be added to the game, but I'm sure that if SVC sees your request he might be able to do a new avatar like that (I assume it's an avatar for this board that you're asking for).

You will need to find and email me a legally usable avatar sized jpg of the flag. I'm not good enough to draw a bear.

Would be interested in a Klingon Destroyer scout and ICS destroyer that is more beefed up to the standard destroyer.
