The Flivvers were a simulator empire based on two key items of technology: the Hyperdrone (a warp-320 weapon which fits in somewhere in-between seeking and direct-fire weapons) and Hoverwarp technology (which allowed Flivver ships to move sideways and backwards at will, keeping their Hyperdrone launchers aimed at the enemy). The Flivvers were originally developed by the Klingons, but during the early stages of the Klingon invasion, a copy of the software was captured (along with a Klingon ship) during a counter-attack and (after Star Fleet Intelligence was convinced that the file did not describe a new Klingon weapon), it was adapted by the Federation for dissimilar combat training.
This collection of six ships contains three of most common Flivver hulls (war cruiser, two war destroyers, and three frigates) which would have handled most wartime patrol actions, or it could be combined with the
Flivver Fleet Core Collection to produce a complete fleet.
This sprue of unpainted ships is designed to fit on a typical 5/8-inch hex map or to allow more room on a larger hex map. (If used for
A Call to Arms: Star Fleet, simply change the measurements from inches to centimeters.)
