Omni Scale General Monitor SRZ

Monitors were designed as self-portable defensive bases. They have dreadnought firepower (enough to defeat any single opponent), but are very slow. Whenever a star system was threatened, a starship was dispatched to provide protection. If the threat persisted, a monitor was assigned, freeing the more useful starship for duty elsewhere. If the threat vanished or defenses were built, the monitor was reassigned. While this is the Federation version of the Monitor, this model is also used as the generic monitor. (Later, empire-specific monitors will be done, but any player can use this model for the monitor of any empire.) While clever players always want to use monitors as convoy escorts, they are simply too rare, too important, and too seldom available to ever be used for that duty.

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.
