In the current timeline I am mucking about with, the new ships are the
next
generation designs from a decades-long war between the NAC/ESU/FSE/NI
and
the NSL/IJN(/UNSC)/IF. You see, in this particular timeline, Nazi
Germany
(and thusly Imperial Japan) won WWII due to some interferences from 2179
(the UNSC is now a puppet of these two powers). This coming weekend (ECC
X
for those who haven't been paying attention ;-) ) will tell the tale of
whether or not this timeline snaps back to the GZG canon timeline (and
the
ships are the result of designs after the K'V encounters and Siege of
Sol)
or if the Nazi Stratocratic League is successful in thwarting the NAC
(et
al) from preventing the interference from happening in the first place.

Cross your fingers that the NSL ultimately lose - I don't want to have
to
run more alternate timeline events at ECC XI !	:-)
