Federation Commander Distant Kingdoms cover

[Icy_Penguigo]

This cover is for the FedCom expansion that brings the Hydrans and Lyrans into the fold. What do you guys think?

Attack of the Blocky Ships!

 

[therealfoxbat]

This is from SFB. Some of those ships really ARE that blocky. (Such as Hydrans, Lyrans and ESPECIALLY Kzinti...)

i think that if i weren't such a D&D junkie, i'd totally be playing SFB right now.

The Hydran ships look great! Bit of a dumb question though - I thought that the Hydrans were the only race capable of firing four phasers/disruptors at once (with Phaser-G). What's up with the Lyran ship?

Hey Any cover loading with Ships and /or Having loads of weopons fire shown is awsome to me

Phaser-G doesn't mean you need anything special to fire four weapons at once. Phaser-G is a Gatling Phaser (a small point-defense Phaser that can fire up to four times every time it's charged - automatic fire), as opposed to Disruptors and other types of Phasers which are single-shot weapons. The Lyran Cruiser is firing four Disruptors because it has four separate Disruptor mounts to fire.

Also, in SFB, EVERYONE has Phasers of some kind. (They are the universal weapon.) Disruptors are a very common Heavy Weapon. (The Federation has Phasers and Photon Torpedoes. The Klingons, Kzinti, Lyrans, Orions and Tholians have Phasers and Disruptors.)
