I love the Auroran POL-FF,now that is a sweet ship,5xPH-1,3xPH-3, 2x LPHT and 15 pwr. Shields:-16,14,14,12 and move cost now 1/4,couple that with this being a nimble ship,and you get a great little Frigate.

Ok,so it might be a little rough and ready,but here's my interpretation of the Federal Republic's Pocket Battlestation.

Thanks Sentinel.
For my next build,I'm going to attempt to construct the Republic Strike Carrier. This ship utilises the aft section of a CL's hull,with a lengthened fore section which incorporates the fighter bays. Power can get a little tight on this ship(28 total power),but she's not defenceless,with 4xPH-1;3xPH-3; 4xLPHT & 12 fighters.With 3/4 move cost,she should be interesting to say the least. 8)

The Republic DD is going to be a little tricky,but I do have an idea as to how to approach it. Now as I don't own any real POL's,this build will be based on my own version,with an enlarged rear hull,(longer),fitted with F5 style warp engines and cross braces,with a boom mounted pod,( going by the SSD), resembling a cut down POL forward hull. It may not be accurate,but it will certainly be unique. :roll: I'll need to build at least two of them,plus possibly a Leader version too,just to cover all the bases......wish me luck.

The build of the first of the Auroran Destroyers.Overall,I'm quite happy with it,but I think that the bridge pod could be doing with being a bit larger though.
