Scott Bishop had Tau'ri StarGate ships in his "What The @#$%^*?" FT game
Friday evening at ECC XII. I cannot remember all the details of the
ships,
but the shields were regeneratable (slow, but they did regenerate). It's
been too long to remember any of the pertinent details, other than I ran
the
Tau'ri, and I went head-to-head with the Klingon fleet run by Mike Hudak
(I
subsequently wiped out said Klingon fleet).

If he's on the list, hopefully he'll pop up and post his ship stats.
