3788 Scale Flivver Dreadnought (DN) MGL

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.

The Flivver Dreadnought possessed a tremendous capacity to mass hyperdrones due to the mounting of two launchers on its centerline between the booms. It was well able to function as the centerpiece of a Flivver battlegroup. Its extreme maneuverability, due to the hoverwarp system, more than mitigated the relatively weak rearward defenses.

The ship is available in a variety of materials. Ships are unpainted, use standard flight stands available from many sources, and, while designed for gaming, make fine display pieces.
