3788 Scale Tholian Improved Police War Destroyer

Tholians are a crystalline species that once ruled the M81 Galaxy. When the Tholian Will was overthrown by the Seltorians, some small groups of Tholians fled to other galaxies. One small group of Tholians reached the Milky Way, where they took over the easternmost part of Klingon space, the part that originally bordered the Romulans. They called this the Tholian Holdfast. The Tholians (who considered carbon-based life to be lower than bacteria) enslaved Klingon colonies in the region and kept the Klingons at bay by their (at the time) superior technology. Their foes, the Seltorians, arrived in the Milky Way Galaxy later.

The Improved Police War Destroyer was a variant of the police war destroyer that gave up its web generators for additional phaser-3s. The extra phasers resulted in an extremely modest increase in firepower at the expense of the ability to use webs. It would depend on other police war destroyers to provide the web generator to form a pinwheel if one were needed. This ship is found in Star Fleet Battles: Module R4T – The Tholian Will.

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.
