3125 Scale Kzinti Heavy Command Cruiser (CCH) 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.

As with the other empires, the Kzintis attempted to improve their command cruiser design. The Heavy Command Cruiser was limited by the shattered Kzinti economy, and the enhancements of the Kzinti Heavy Command Cruiser are, perhaps, slightly less than those of other empires. The hull was lengthened by six meters, providing space for enhanced battery and power systems, but the major changes were reserved for the weapons pylons, which could be built easily in various facilities and installed as completed units. Due to the power requirements, drone transfer systems, and firing circuits, attempts to install these pylons on existing ships (without the full heavy command cruiser conversion) proved impossible. The enhancements included an upgrade of two phaser-3s to phaser-1s and the installation of two anti-drone systems. Known names include Cometchaser, Nightstorm, Novakiller, Starfury, and Twilight.

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.
