Fun books, but waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over the top.  I'd adapt the 
Saganami Island Simulator missile rules, the Ashes series has missile 
combat a lot like the Honor Harrington series, so it should be a pretty 
simple project. Do the movement, work out the missile values and damage 
allocation sheets and you've got it. Write it up, Ken can put it in 
Nexus (once the lawyers get through with it).

Here's a model of the Dahak, with base :-)

We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade
and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are
hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of
our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are
willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we
intend to win, and the others, too.
