Argh. You're making me want to buy yet another SFU game! And another starship combat game! Not sure how much longer I can resist.

Incidentally, is it just me, or does there seem to be a limited use for the CB?
i.e. a restricted deployment scenario or a timeline restraint?
I know Mongoose has been ...

It is also in the SFU timeline

Y186 The ISC Echelon of Judgement (X-ships) demands that the Seltorians stop attacking the Tholians.
When the Seltorians refuse, the ISC destroys the Seltorian Hive Ship and bases. The Klingons
discover a secret about the Seltorians and destroy the last of them.
And ...

I have found undiluted Simple Green works well for plastics.

Do not use Jasco on plastics, that will definitely melt them.

Well, after being away for a long time (I cannot believe it hass been nearly a year. . .at least my minis thread has not slipped to page 2 like last time), and packing up 90% of my workbench for part of that time, I thought I would start off small. . .and deadly.

Very nice! A different look in many respects. Makes me incredibly jealous that it's raining here and I can't paint easily.

I only had one engine that would not set at all. After trying everything i could think of, I cut a section of a staple, glued it to the wing, forming a V lip that the body could slip into. Once it set in place, I used modeling putty to cover the staple, gave it a nice shape, and did the other wing ...

100 years later, in the TNG timeframe, yes, it was old and busted. I really wish the DS9 FX folks had not used it so much (or the K'tinga).

Yeah, while it was nice to see the old D7s again, there were a TON of them. And phasers from the sensor dish/torpedo tube??? Come on...

It was tough since ...

The story I keep hearing is that the original plan for III was to use Romulans as the villians (hence the BoP and cloaking device), but someone leakedthat info to the public early.
This caused the producers to quickly change everything to Klingons, but the minis had already been constructed and ...
