Product Description
Andromedans are an aggressive empire from the M31 Andromedan Galaxy. Their technology is different from that of ships in our galaxy. They use tractor-repulsor beams to rip enemy ships apart, displacement devices to teleport their own ships or enemy ones, and weapons that are similar to a phaser-2. They do not use shields but instead use power absorbers that capture the energy of enemy weapons and cycle it back into their own systems and weapons. Larger Andromedan ships (motherships) carry small frigate/destroyer-sized ships internally and launch them as needed in combat.
As Operation Unity drove toward the Lesser Magellanic Cloud, the Galactic Powers encountered new kinds of Andromedan ships not seen before. These came to be referred to as Andromedan monitors, as they were motherships in size, but were found to lack displacement devices, and so were unable to move along the Rapid Transit Network. Andromedan monitors have two kinds of hangars. They have their normal hangar and a multiple weapons platform hangar.
First encountered during Operation Unity, several Concretor Monitors were destroyed by the Galactic Powers. Based (apparently) on the Conquistador hull, the Concretor carried six mobile weapons platforms. There are confirmed reports that some ships of this class were encountered defending positions inside the Milky Way Galaxy in both the Alpha and Omega sectors.
The 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.
