For the most part, yes - I have always loved the Vorchan design :). The
destroyers are Epic40K Eldar flyers, and the Fr'athra Cruisers are
actually
ESU Tibet light cruisers in disguise. I have more conversions in
progress.

The codes are just simple extrapolations of the standard ship codes used
now. For a basic type code, you double the letter to make at least a
2-character code out of it. For example, 'D' is for Destroyer class, so
a
'standard Destroyer' is a 'DD'. Similarly, a Cruiser is a 'CC', a
Battleship is a 'BB', etc. There are some exceptions - such as 'BC' for
the Battlecruiser class and 'DN' for the Dreadnought class (which
doesn't
exist in wet navies :). I simply used 'Y' for fighters at the
suggestion
of another who used it for Bab5 games.
