The Inter-Stellar Concordium (ISC) is an organization of five species associated by treaty, all speaking a common language. In this they are similar to the Federation. As is typical of the eastern regions of the Alpha Octant, all of these species are native to different planets, but most of these systems are within a relatively small area at the center of ISC territory. The various species discovered each other, fought several minor wars, and formed the ISC before the era of warp-powered starships. There, the resemblance to the Federation ends. The ISC has no concept of a Prime Directive, and will intervene in the development of any species to bring it up to ISC standards. The ISC’s prime conviction is that “a peaceful, harmonious and well-ordered universe is the duty of all sentient species. Civilizations collapse when that duty is ignored, therefore it must be required of all.” The dark underside of the ISC is that they have no respect for individual or cultural rights that violate this principle, and will go to any lengths to enforce their idea of “peace, order, and good government.” Therefore, the ISC will try (usually successfully) to separate warring powers, forcing them back within their borders. The ISC does not try to conquer those powers or force them to adopt ISC philosophies, but the ISC enforces a “Zero Tolerance for War” policy.
With one each of the original ships of the ISC fleet (Dreadnought, Star Cruiser, Light Cruiser, Destroyer, and two Frigates), this collection will handle small patrol actions and can be combined with the
ISC Fleet Builder Collection to produce a complete battle fleet. We included an extra frigate since those things die very fast in combat with 100% crew casualties.
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.)
