Concur.

The OU has 2 of the FSE Battlecruisers, though with a slightly different
weapons
fit as the FSE didn't supply any missile systems for them.

In addition, the OU has at least 1 NAC Capital Ship - I must look up
Brendan
Robertson's page again to see exactly what it is.

Basically, I want to make sure that anyone who has a well-painted
miniature,
preferably one that has a picture on the web, has "first dibs" on
unallocated
ships (after Canon). Thus the "Dreamtime" painted ships of the OU.

Second priority is to people who have written up some fiction or
background
material which requires a ship of a particular class to be in a
particular Navy.
Thus the 2 FSE BCs of the OU.

I think this is as good a method of allocation as any. Anyone want to be
Keeper
of the Keys? Any reaction from The Tuffley?
