Looks like the Klinks did a lot of milking of the Drell design :P

And with all these klinks, I have to wonder what some of them would look like when in Romulan hands? You did a KDR conversion in the past, but would the Romulans also get a number of lighter ships in your universe as well? What would the textures look like?

I love the "hammer-head" on the scout.  The cruiser on the far right of the picture appears to have an unusual command pod.  I'd like a closer look.


That's what I'm thinking as far as the ELINT Cruiser goes. I figure that there are spots in which you'd use a simple ELINT destroyer, and one in which you might need a full ELINT cruiser.

well, two things: (one) i haven't decided what my roms are going to look like texture wise. (two) I haven't decided how many designs the romulans got from the klingons. I may just keep it at the D6 hull and call it good. Not sure yet.

Sweet pic of the KDNL. I can't wait to try her out.

;D Yeah, I agree with you about stopping the K-R tech exchange with the D-6. It will be nice to see more Romulan designs.

Regarding bases and other Klingon ships. No point reinventing the wheel have a look at these low poly but very good attachments:

1)  Klingon Academy Starbase converted by Darkdrone, this model has a mesh error that shows up if you play it in SFC3.

2)  Also included I have here a KA KBS which is a kitbash (by ModelsPlease) and the original KBS kitbash by Darkdrone (used as a break model here).

3)   A converted ST: Armada Stardock. They have minor mesh errors but I'd love to see these tweaked with the new Klingon colors. Additionally, I use the KBS models for bases given to the Lyrans and the shipdock can be retextured to any flavor you like I have ISC, Lyran, Tholian and Romulan versions but all have the minor mesh errors.

Klingon Academy worker bee shuttle also:

I like the stock Klingon fighter but I prefer the Targhwam [sp?].

Grabbed. Thanks KF :)

I will play, but the fleet comes first.

??? Klingon Frigates or Frigates in general?

Why not use (Terradyhne's model) D-16 as a TOS destroyer downgraded to a TMP frigate?

Also, how can we forget the (Terradyhne's model) K'teremny cruiser in destroyer clothing?

Don't forget WZ45's Klingon Academy VoDleH...

I have the D16 - I think that feels more like a CL than a DD or FF. I have WZs two frigate/escort ships, but I have yet to mess with them.

I've been using the K'teremny as my KDX... She's a storied TMP era Klingon ship found in the old ships of the starfleet books.

Not really big on the K'Teremny. It's rather flat.

Those two you have now look neat -- the similar ones to the right with the long and short necks. Are they going to be the E4 and F5?

Lower profile = harder to hit, LOL!

Attached are what I can do as an incomplete WIP without modelling software or photo editing software. I can not  remap textures so I'm not much help there. The original KA KSB mesh never had its mesh errors corrected (look at the arms). So these fair retextures include the three-armed KSB, the no armed base KBS (named as KBS_brk.mod) and ModelsPlease Dumbell-shaped kitbash of the KBS. I used the FoaS retexture of WZ's K't'inga for the majority of what I could tweak to at least share the same color scheme as the new fleet.

I have no doubt that you will do a much better job, when you are able to get to these, than I did here.

You need a K-23. I know at least one model exists out there. I've used it as a DD in the past, but I think it could fit as a frigate. They do call it an 'escort' after all.

I also agree on the K'teremny. Then again, I don't think the SFB fleet is particularly inspired either since many of the hulls are just one shape but at different scales or one or two bits added to make it 'special'.

I have a K-23 and a L-6 lying around. The problem is that they are not unwrapped very well - in order to be satisfied with making them part of my fleet is that I would have to re-unwrap them which is a buzzkill.

By the way - The L-24.. worth remaking as a DN?

The D2 pack uses the L-24 as the Klingon Dreadnought...

Though with the B-10 using just a bigger D7 boom wouldn't one expect the same from a Dreadnought? Unless the B-10 is supposed to be older than said dreadnought...

I know - I was wondering if it is worth retexing that and making that another DN

I would rather see the KA VoDleH as a DN. I have mixed feelings about the L-24, unless you can find the fan made CUSTOM built, high poly version (3 torps in front and excellent armor) that was made into an actual 3D miniature within the past two years.

Regarding the K-23, which one are you having problems with? The TOS gray (Cleeve) and Brown (P81) or the kitbach that was in a SFC3 mod which uses a different set of Atrahasis warp engines? FASA be damned I was using the kitbashed K-23 as a fast courrier for OP+. I'll have to dig it out later if you still need it.

I hadn't realized there were multiple K-23s out there. I just had Korah's green on. I will now use Cleeve's :).

I do have the Vodleh, just haven't played with it, yet (WZ's version). No reason why we can't have more than one DN.

Regarding the L-24, it actually grew on me a tad while I was working on it. It needs a bit of a rework, but nothing I can't do in my sleep.
