Product Description
The Gorns are six-to-seven-foot-tall, 350-pound, cold-blooded, egg-laying, reptilian humanoids bearing a superficial resemblance to a T-Rex or Raptor. Despite the fearsome visage, they are actually quite civilized people who run one of the few democracies in the galaxy. The Federation and Gorns met in a border incident in which two hot-headed captains shot first and faced embarrassing questions later. (A Federation corporation built an unauthorized colony outside of Federation territory. The Gorns saw a few Vulcans and thought the colonists were Romulans (with which they had fought wars for over a century). Diplomats smoothed everything over and the Gorns became the most stable ally of the Federation. The Gorn legislature’s reluctance to spend money or join the Federation’s war limited this alliance during some periods. (Note: The dinosaur-based names are Federation “reporting names” because few in the Federation could pronounce the Gorn names for them. Shown books on paleontology, the Gorns were reportedly honored and amused by the naming convention.)
Battle stations replaced the smaller base stations to upgrade the supply and operations network of each empire. Over time, “Augmentation Modules” were added to expand the capabilities of key bases, such as adding fighters or gunboats (or both). Most battle stations were deployed along the national borders. Battle stations provided supply storage, repair facilities, limited shore leave opportunities, and communication networks. Before the General War, most bases on borders had been upgraded to Battle Stations. Their heavy weapons provided protection for convoys and small service ships operating in the area, much like settlers in the old west would run for the fort when hostiles attacked. Battle stations provided district offices for police units, and rented office space to corporations and other entities with operations in the area.
The Battle Station is available in a variety of materials. Battle Stations are unpainted, use standard flight stands available from many sources, and, while designed for gaming, make fine display pieces.
