I can never figure out how to upload stuff here, but if somebody else can download the PDF and move it here, knock yourselves out.

Ah, the idea of doing this with SFB SSD's had been bounced around before. I supported the idea there, and I like the idea here too. Yes, I would buy it. The only limiter I see is that 3 cruisers could get very tight, especially Hydrans with their fighters or the Lyrans with their wide silhouettes.

Tony, can you re-do that PDF and change the name to "Klingon_3xF5_Squadron", please? There's already a PDF in the offical library named "Klingon_F5_Squadron".

Putting only 2 cruisers at a time seems reasonable, and echoes an idea I mentioned on the BBS for the Andromedans.

(Said idea was that Andro satellite ships could be divvied up according to their size class. So, one could have a card with 2 Mambas, another with 3 Cobras, and a third with 4 Vipers.)

Indeed, to expand on another mention elsewhere, ISC cards could be themed according to their place in the echelon. 'Gunline Cards' could have 3 FFs or DDs each (dunno if 4 FFs would fit together the way you might do with Vipers, though) and 'Echelon Cards' could have a pair of light cruisers, or one CL and one CS, on it.

You're not helping the situation any... although it would be cool to have. You could just hang the opposing fleets on opposite sides of the game room and have at it.

just what would be on an 11"x17" card? would it be something like a C7 + 3 F5's or is it for 3 cruisers.
