3788 Scale Romulan Peregrine+ New Mauler Cruiser

FlameHawk mauler cruisers were built by hardwelding F-modules onto a FireHawk heavy cruiser. This had several drawbacks, in that it lost the plasma-F torpedoes (more useful for self-defense), and had its mauler weapons off the centerline. The Romulans built one “true” mauler by gutting a crippled FireHawk heavy cruiser and rebuilding it from the keel up with a centerline mauler system. This made the ship more resistant to shock. It was assigned interchangeably with FlameHawks, but any admiral who received the ship counted himself as blessed by the Romulan gods of war. The Federation translated the Romulan name for this ship as Bellerophon. The Peregrine+ was produced during the late war period in the shipyards of a different Great House than the original, accounting for the visual difference.

The ship is available in a variety of materials. (Smooth Fine Detail Plastic makes an excellent cloaked ship!) Ships are unpainted, use standard flight stands available from many sources, and, while designed for gaming, make fine display pieces.
