Actually they did go up on TMP a couple of weeks back, on one of our 
earlier preview postings - I haven't got the URL to hand, but if you 
look for our posts in the TMP news archive you should find it. There 
are two ship pics in the post, a single ScanFed battleship and one of 
two ships (cruiser and destroyer) which are the "mystery" ones in 
question.
