3788 Scale Kzinti X-Ship Heavy War Destroyer SRZ

The Kzintis are a species of eight-foot-tall felines; the Klingons call them “tigermen.” They are adjacent to the Federation (and have fought two major wars with them, losing both) and the Klingons (and have fought several wars with them, winning a few and losing a few). Kzinti ships are armed with disruptors, phasers, and drones. They have more drones on their standard warships than any other empire and forests of phaser-3s because their ships are designed to fight each other. (They have had more civil wars than foreign wars.) They are enemies of the Klingons and Lyrans and allies of convenience with the Hydrans and Federation.

The Kzintis converted an under-construction heavy war destroyer to X-technology a year after the battles at Blackfoot Pass. The reasons for doing so were the same as those of every other empire: too many missions needing advanced technology ships and not enough advanced technology ships to go around. The ship might have contributed to the final battles of the General War, but it was constantly being recalled and fitted for a new mission. When the Usurper exited from the Cluster two years later, this pattern continued, but the ship finally engaged in a battle with the Usurper’s X-squadron, where it was destroyed. A second ship was commissioned that same year and two more in subsequent years; from that point, the numbers fluctuated between two and three in service at any one time. The only known name was Streaming Pulsar.

This ship is available in a variety of materials. Ships are unpainted, use standard flight stands available from many sources, and, while designed for gaming, make fine display pieces.
