Hi all, Well finally getting around to finishing up my mold masters and
setting up some stats for my GalacTec stuff. I am basing my ship sizes on the
old FT1 categories of class,ie a Hvy Cruiser is in the 32 mass rangeand each
unit of mass is equal to 1000 tons. I finally settled on 6 different races;
The Danegra Coalition The Delthaze Tribunal The Hargonne The Parloomian
Emerates The Perg'r'nese Domain The Qizan Confederation The United Terran
Commonwealth The Vindric

Some groups use shields only, some armor only and some both. All except one
use vector movement and they use a modified cinematic gravity drive.
 Weapon systems vary widely with H.E.Lasers, Anti-Proton Beams, Plasma
cannon, Pulse Cannon, X-Ray Lasers, Railguns, Mag-Shot Projectors, Pulse

Torps, AI Nuke missiles, SML's & Anti-Matter pods.

I should have some of the molds masters primered tomorrow so hopefully I will
be able to share some pics in the next few days.

Thrusting away, Kirk

PS: I am also working up the ground equivalent equipment for this universe
using the Full Thrust ship builder. So far, so good

Great, keep it up. While the GZG universe is expertly well done (Kudos to Mr
Tuffley and any 'assistants' that contributed) matching generic yet in line
with the rules in a well balanced presentation, I love to hear about alternate
universes so I can steal, I mean borrow ideas to keep my setting fresh, even
if I don't use any of the ideas (because it makes me lay out the background
base as to 'why' that didn't happen!)

So, which are human, which are 'humanoid' aliens, which are definitely *not*
humanoid? What are their governments like? Their Cultures? Their Ground TO&E
(being basically a DS2'er by nature)? Their flotilla formations? Who uses
what? And why (Psychology and Sociology)?

Paranoid minds want to know!
