Yeah, well, how about us vacc-heads who want to dish out the fisticuffs?
I wanna 15mm Kamarov with internal corridors and rooms and working doors
and...

Oh, yeah, I forgot that Brendan had also asked for a crew pack. If I get my
Kamarov, I'm gonna need a WHOLE-LOTTA crew!

I'm still planning to build a 15mm Jerez for a future ECC boarding action...
IIRC it'll be about 6 feet long, and the ECC tables are 72x144 so you could
probably fit a Komarov on them. Or more accurately: if you bring a 15mm
Komarov, I'm sure we'll find a way to make it fit!

The FT starships are, generally, small in scale, and have very few crew
members. I did the calculation for a boarding action on a NAC Furious class
starship and it was only about 30" long in 15mm scale.

The Honor Harrington universe is an entirely different matter. A Manticore SDN
could fit nicely along side Manhattan.

I don't have a Komarov handy but IIRC a Jeanne d'Arc is right at 6"
long.  At 1/2400 that makes the real thing 1200 feet long.  Assuming
15mm is 1/120 scale, a 15mm Jeanne d'Arc is 10 feet long.  The tables
are 12ft long, so no problem.

I don't think I'll be able to build one for a while as I have nowhere to store
it even if built in 24x24" modules. But I'm sure one of you lunati^h^h^h
dedicated gamers is up to the challenge.
