Re: [FT] Tech Level? Is there such a thing?

There's a fair amount of controversy about just 
how big the various ships are. I think the Warlock
is longer and bigger than the Victory. However,
maybe the Whitestar is a better example.

Certainly, pound for pound, the White star
(also of somewhat indeterminate size) is a 
*relatively* small ship with relatively big
firepower AND relatively superior defense. 

I hope the mini for the Victory gets approved 
too. I found one that I think will stand in 
quite well from Brigade Miniatures. It's the 
Jericho.

What do you think?
