Questions Regarding Juggernaughts

I've played the original Commanders Edition Juggernaught (CL#1) quite few times in days past, and I'm aware of the Alpha and Beta in CL#33 (Got to order that one), is there any more Juggernaughts out there?
I'd like to order them in one fell swoop.

Not so far. Juggernaut Gamma should be in CL sometime in the 51-53 area. We already have the fiction for 49 and know what we want to do 50, although on any given day I might rather wake up and do Juggy Gamma than Day of the Dragon. Just depends on which side of the bed I got up from.

Okay then. Some thing to look forward to.

I believe the Selts took on the Juggernaut (or a type of Juggernaut) in one of the previous stories. But they used a latin identifier or something of the sort. Good story.

One of the short fiction pieces in Captain's Log #41 is called Fire in the Deep, which portrays the Seltorian Hive Ship Star of Redemption accounting for a series of battles fought by ships being launched from their target galaxy (which in this case was not the Milky Way) back towards M81 itself.
There is also an SFB scenario included in the same issue that has a series of "Juggernaut Empire" warships try to take out the HVS, as a postulation of what final fate may have befallen the Star expedition. Some of these ships are given SSDs in CL41 itself, while two others were in CL35.
(The scenario does not confirm or deny if the ships opposing the Star were, in fact, Juggernauts, though the story treats them as such.)
As David notes above, the fiction piece itself uses a different naming convention to the Juggenauts encountered in the Alpha Octant; rather than Alpha, Beta, or Gamma, the list went Primus, Secundus, Tertius, and so on.

Yep that's the issue. I'm rereading that one right now as a matter of fact. I've been going through all the issues looking for scenarios that our group may like to play.
