Federation New Heavy Cruiser

Desperately needing more heavy cruisers than it could produce, the Federation came up with a plan to add a section to the bottom of the New Light Cruiser hull (with a smaller third engine) resulting in the New Heavy Cruiser. Operationally interchangeable with the venerable CA, it was more modern and slightly more combat oriented. Even better, the new sections could be built in advance and added to any available NCL or NCL-variant, meaning all of the NCL-variants (from scouts to carriers to transports) could be improved to the new larger design.

The ships of the Starline 2500 series are cast in pewter, have supremely high detail, and are in a larger (1/3200) scale than the earlier, metal 2400 series of miniatures. The ships of either series will work with Star Fleet Battles, Federation Commander, A Call to Arms, or Starmada.
