3125 Scale Kzinti Space Control Ship (SCS) 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.

Following the example of their Hydran allies, the Kzintis converted a damaged CVA heavy carrier into a space control ship in the last years of the General War. This ship had 12 fighters and 6 gunboats. It had very nearly the firepower of a dreadnought, plus the fighters and gunboats, making it more than capable of its mission to “go to an area and control it.” It can carry a seventh gunboat in the internal bay but this area is usually reserved to repair a damaged gunboat.

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.
