Subject: Miniature Speculation...

So...the UNSC's tubular "surface detail" turned out to be a secret new weapon,
hmmmm? If the same approach can yeild cryptic hints as to what awaits us in
FB3, then let us speculate...I just happen to have a few Israeli ships in
front of me from Salute, too.

[Note: This is silly, not a genuine attempt at
miniatureomancy...although if anyone has any theories/dark hints, feel
free to make them]

#1: Large (six-pointed...snicker) engines prominently sticking some way
out the back, with big cylindical tanks hanging off them. Some form of
solid-fuel booster? The smaller classes have similar shapes hanging off
the "wing" edges, too...

#2: Big, prominent Radomes. I wonder what mysterious EW devices lurk beneath,
hrrrm?

#3: Large, cylindrical pods on all ships with liiiiitle probes on the forward
ends that just scream "weapons mount"...the BB sticks these on big vanes, too.
Cooling? Or, perhaps, ammunition feeds...

#4: The Sabra has a very big cylindrical module slung under the nose, with a
weaponlike probe at the forward end. A spinal mount, perhaps....?
