Star Trek: Fistful of Dilithium – The Covid Nebula Campaign

Some of the projects Ive been working on finishing throughout Spocktober.

Started on getting an Argo Shuttle printed. We ‘ve had the Argo buggies for a bit now, but finally decided it was time to build the shuttle.

Picked up some Cardassians from RavenX Studios, but needed a shuttle. The smallest cannon ship I could fin was the Hideki class, which at 28mm would still have been almost 4 feet long… so I had to design one. A little bit if digital kitbashing, and I think we have a workable small shuttle for the Cardie Away Teams.

Finally I started work on rigging and posing some tholian models I found online.

Slowly making some progress on the Vulcan Monastery.

Unlikely to get any battle reports before the new year.

The Talvath is a Kestrel class shuttle, the multi-role shuttle is a staple of the Romulan small craft fleet.

Featuring Rodinium hull plating, a Hnafir class sensor array, six type 3 rapid nadion pulse Disruptor emitters, a forward mounted torpedo tube, a Tebok class cloaking device, and artificial singularity drive – allowing for speeds up warp 9.6.

Kestrel class shuttles are well suited for a wide array of mission profiles, from diplomatic litters, stealth surveillance, to combat roles as transports or heavy fighters.

First, we want to say Thank You! It’s kinda surreal and deeply appreciated that folks outside of our little group of Trekkie Gamers would enjoy our silly stories and games.

Next, I want to apologize for the fact that there will be a slow down in updates for the next few weeks, as work and holidays devour our free time.

Thus far I have tried to get at least one battle report with each Away Team, but sometimes I miss games, or Im playing at the same time on another table in the other room (weirdly I seem to have only gotten photos of games on the same table), or I just forgot to take any photos…. Ok, usually it’s I’m too busy arguing with one of the guys for saying something like “Into Darkness wasnt that bad”.. Them’s Fightin’ Words ’round these parts. Point being,  I havent gotten all the Away Teams documented yet, but I am hopeful to fill in the next few weeks with more Ships of the Line and Meet the Away Team logs.

I might find some time to work on the Vulcan Kolinahr Monks, and their terrain this week so keep an eye out for that.

I didnt make over to game night this week, but I am hoping one of the guys took some pictures, they usually dont, but there’s always a possibility.

In our ever-evolving narrative, one of the proposed ideas for a scenario involves a long lost Vulcan Monastery hidden inside the nebula. Feels a bit like a stretch, but at the same time, the Dominion did get very close to taking Vulcan during the later parts of the War, so it might be nice to have some scenery and miniatures for a Kolinahr temple either way.

So while I wasnt able to bring the Prak-Tarr to the table this week, I did find some time to start on the Vulcan Monks.

Because Im so limited on time these days, it was again much faster to start with a Hero Forge base model, drop them into Blender to fix the hand into the proper Live Long and Prosper pose, as well as adding in appropriate Type II and Type III Phasers.

Next is sorting out the Terrain, got a rough start on a couple of pieces, not sure how I feel about them, definitely still have a long way to go, but Im hoping to have a playable setup by January

So’jen 993, Engineers at the Keldon Shipyards of the House KosQ, under the direction of Brigadier Kursh began the development of the Vengeance Class Heavy Assault Craft.

Based on the highly successful Toron Shuttle chasis, the Vengeance is much more heavily armored, and features a dorsal mounted variable mission pod, allowing the Assault Craft to be rapidly reconfigured to meet mission parameters. The additional size of the Vengeance allows it to comfortably carry up to 12 warriors in addition to its 3 man crew.

Each wing of the Vengeance is fitted with a forward mounted Chang-type Rapid Fire Matter Disruption Pulse Emitter, and terminates in a Rault class Warp Nacelle, allowing sustained speeds of up to Warp 4.8, and a cruising speed of Warp 2.
