Subject: [FT] Progress report - sourcing "Centauri compatible" ships
I wanted to thank everyone for previous suggestions. Here's what I have
so
far - things are looking fairly good right now, although I still have a
big
hole in finding anything suitable for carriers, especially since AOG
just
informed me that the Balvarin Carrier's release date has been pushed
back
"until sometime this Spring". [grrrrrr]

I can live without having FH and DH categories assigned. :) I can use
the AOG
Primus for both DN and BDN, and the DN class is unused by all of the
Fleet
Book powers, so I can ignore that one as well. The thing that hurts is
the
lack of carriers - I was really hoping that the AOG Balvarin would fill
in the
CVL or CVH. [sigh]
The ESU parts are really fitting in rather nicely - I've kitbashed the
Tibets
into nice looking standard Cruisers, and I have great hopes for the
other GZG
parts fitting in just as nicely. The Warsaw and Voroshilevs are on
order, and
I'm still staring at the two Gorshkovs I bought, trying to figure out
exactly
how I'm going to construct the flight deck section. As soon as I get
the
Tibets painted, I'll throw some pics up on StarFighter Command so you
can see
how well they turned out.
