Re: Blakes 7 Ship Stats

Tricky, as the writers didn't give a damn about consitency or science 
and the FX had next to zero budget.

Liberator: Big. Fast, B7 especially the early seasons didn't really 
distinguish between FTL and sub-light drives so it's hard to judge 
whether the Liberator should have high thrust or not. Force fields of 
some type - maybe FT standard Screens, maybe something borrowed from 
one of the Trek adaptations. Neutron Blaster - big (B3 or B4) forward 
firing beams. Cargo holds. Superior Sensors (especially if Orac's on 
board).

Pursuit Ships: Small. Fast. Forward firing plasma bolt weaponry (FT 
pulse torp or small Phalon plasma bolt?).

Do you have the B7 Tech Manual produced by the Blake's 7 Appreciation 
Society? http://www.horizon.org.uk/
I'll have a look through mine tonight and see if I can come up with 
some stats.

> Also does anyone know of a source of miniatures ?

The old Corgi die-cast Liberators must be worth a fortune by now. 
Mine got rather battered and, um, chewed. :-(
