Looks great Vanessa! Is there a contents list somewhere?

Scoutdad · Post by **Scoutdad** » Wed Jan 17, 2007 4:51 pm

You would think the cover art would match the contents of the boxes, so I'd say:

Tholian:
2 NDN
2 NCA
2 NCL
2 NDD
2 CW
4 small Freighters (Web Tenders)

Seltorian:
1 DN
2 CA
2 CL
2 DD
3 FF

Of course, I could be wrong about the size/classes - but the count should definitely be right: 14 Tholian ships and 10 Seltorian ships

I have an off topic question about the Seletolian ships. Are the hulls suppose to be that green? I have an old SFB module the intoduced them but, I don't rememeber if they are green or that lighly green or not.

Not complaining, its still a nice cover, just wasn't sure or not.

Different artists' interpretations, I think. When I get my Selts, they're going to be iridescent green.

I have an old bottle of Humbrol brand paint that I intend to use for mine. It's an irridescent, jade green... I think they'll look like big ole June Bugs...

With that comment I'm seeing images of "Bear" from the Discovery show "Man vs. Wild" in my head. I haven't seen him eat any grasshoppers, but I've seen him eat maggots, termites, little snakes (raw), raw fish (still alive), drink water from elephant dung, and so much other ewwwwwy gross things.

I'm sure you're glad I shared that...but that's the image you gave me when you started talking about eating grasshoppers.

Makes me think of the Monty Python sketch in the chocolate factory...

"Crunchy Frog: A frog, dew-picked and flown in from Iraq, lightly killed and then folded in mouth-watering milk chocolate."
"That's disgusting! At least you could pick the bones out."
"But then, it wouldn't be crunchy!"

Scoutdad,

Thanks, hadn't figured out the "web tenders". However, not convinced about the Seltorian DN - it has 3 "booms", so I wasn't sure if it was a DNL or maybe an NCA. I look forward to finding out when I grab a copy of Tholian Attack!

Scoutdad · Post by **Scoutdad** » Fri Jan 19, 2007 12:29 pm

I don't know why I didn't think of this one sooner, but after looking at the playtest Seltorian ship cards... the Seltorian ships in Tholoian attack are th DN, the BCH, the CA, the CL, the DD, and the FF - so those should be the ones included in the box.

If it follows the pattern established by the other boxes, you'll get 1 DN, BCH, CA, DD and FF in the squadron box. DN and BCH not in the border box. The ones in the Border Box will be CCs, CAs, DDs, FFs etc.

I have just one thing to say about that box art

wow wow, wow, but i must be a echo is it going to include more federation and klingons and of course romulans and the kittys.

BY THE WAY I HAVE A JOKE YOU HAVE MIGHT HAVE HEARD IT "WHATS scotties the tissues and captain kirk got in common they both wipe out klingons".

NDD?? Are they going to do Particle Cannons then in FC? Hadn't heard that. The only NDD's I've seen in SFBwere "Old Galaxy" NDD's with Particle Cannons. (Granted thats around the time I dropped out of SFB, so there could be NDD's in this galaxy, but I don't see the Minis for sale - unless they are new minis still to come out, or use the NCL hull.)

This History is that the 312th made it to our Galaxy, but the smallest hull they had was the NCL. However, since FC doesn't officially have a 'history', that could be out the window
