Can't help you on this one - it was mainly Zeke at Wireframe that did
the
ship stats to fit the rules I supplied, and though I gave them some
suggestions on the ships I knew from the show, the ones you mention were
done entirely by them - I haven't seen any of these on screen either;
suggest you ask them directly on the Babylon Project mailing list.
