Re: [GZG] BFG Ship Photos - Imperial Navy

lol, the Protector CH was for a particular player that would field a single ship (no more than a tin can with a engine at the back) full of fighters or salvo missiles.  He once fired a stack of salvo missle counters an inch and a half high. 

I tried to design the FT Imperial Navy to model the BFG Imperial Navy.  However the Whirlwind was built because I was watching the Robotech Series and pictured it firing like Anime mini-missles. 

I actually playtest the two against each other and the Whirlwind won, on the third turn of firing 3 salvos (good thing too cause it was out of ammo).  The Protector knocked out 3 salvos worth of misses the first two turns, and didnt do diddly the last turn.  Though it would have been fun to take down a cruiser with only PDS shots, lol.

Looking at the BFG SSD's, these would make good ships for the Knights of St. John I've been hearing about.  OR, since these ships look gothic cathedrals, they would be perfect for the Papal High Guard I postulated in Oct. 2004 - http://lists.firedrake.org/gzg/200410/msg00108.html - though an opponent may scream bloody murder if the BFG player showed up Whirlwind or Protector class cruisers in his taskforce.

I've upload a bunch of photos and ships designs to my website.  They are of my Imperial Navy fleet.  I have a bunch of escorts in their final stages of painting and once they are done I will post their photos as well.
