I checked through the tractor section looking for clues, but never thought to look in transporters for an equivavlency.

And this line of reasoning leads me to another thought (a somewhat random thought that has little to do with the particular scenario)...

If a medium-sized base is ~equivalent to ...

Thanks. That works for me.

I am doing a solo play through Scenario 8C23 (Mis-Fire). The Lyran base does have positional stabilizers, but has taken a whole series of weapons row internals and has lost a bunch of phasers and both ESGs and is facing a scad of incoming Kzinti drones, so is soon to be ...

Black hole radiation burst from a base?

What is the radiation burst if a base is drawn into a black hole?

At first glance, I would say to treat it as a large asteroid since neither can be moved by a tractor beam, but if there is a better answer somewhere that I missed...

D5E Escort cruiser

Is the D5E escort cruiser intended to have the aegis fire control? I have the ship card from Comminique 73 (but not the one from Reinforcements attack) and there is not a specific listing for Aegis as with most escorts. I would guess this is an oversight on the card, but I could be wrong. It does ...

Federation HDW (plasma) Plasma-F arc

What is the targeting arc intended to be for Plasma-Fs on the plasma variant of the Federation HDW?

The Ship card in Federation epack 3 lists them as RP and I doubt that the intention was to have a couple of plasma racks aimed off to only the right side. The photon variant of the HDW has a pair of ...

Communique 112 New Ship Question

Should the Kzinti War Drone Destroyer have the ability to control 12 drones like most other drone ships (including the smaller Kzinti drone frigate? I didn't see the notation on the ship card.

Hydran Attack Extra Counters

I'm contemplating my next "Monthly Fed Comm Expansion" and was looking at Hydran Attack. The product order page says the extra 40 counters are for Boosters 91-95, but there are no Boosters 93-95 in the product range. Can anyone tell me what ships those extra counters cover?

Thanks

Kzinti Drone Boom Repair

Any one have any good tips for repairing drone booms that have broken off of Kzinti ships?

I have a couple of ships from various purchases that have had one of the forward drone booms broken off at the point where they meet the hull.

I'm having trouble seeing a good way to reattach the boom since ...

Indeed. Very cool sense of glow and highlights to the Klingon reactor cooling grilles.

The grills have turned out quite nice. The blue warp engine cooling vanes have a similar look, but the colors wash out a little in the photos and don't show up as well.

The Kzinti is still pretty bright, but ...

Very nice paint jobs there! 8) 8) 8) 8)

What is the base hull colour there? I thought it was like the 'concrete' gray of the TV ship at first in the first pic of the OCL, but in the group shot, I'm not sure now, is it white?

Mark,

Correct. The base color is white (vallejo white ...
