#Romulan bird of prey size series

The vessel was successful in destroying several of the Federation outposts along the zone before being engaged by the USS Enterprise. In 2266 the Romulans sent the first of their new ships across the neutral zone in order to test out the Federations technological and psychological preparedness for open warfare. This vented the entire output of the ships EPS system into an enclosing force field (see weaponry section for details), creating a large and highly destructive energy bolt. To provide sufficient firepower to destroy heavily shielded vessels and installations, the bird of prey was equipped with a plasma torpedo system. While these were of a very high output, they were no match for the matter/antimatter system of contemporary Federation designs. This difficulty was not helped by the fact that the ship had only simple impulse style fusion generators to power her. The power required to maintain the cloaking device was enormous, and the Romulan vessel was unable to raise shields or fire whilst using this system.

A force field selectively bends light - and sensor signals - around the ship, while a series of measures were taken to reduce the emissions from internal systems to an absolute minimum. The Bird of Prey was the first vessel in standard military service which was known byt the Federation to incorporate cloaking technology. Unfortunately for the Romulans, this came at the cost of very low speed and limited range. One of the most interesting designs of the 2260's, this vessel was designed to combine a very high level of firepower with stealth, small size and manoeuvrability.

So, if you want to see the ship in game, just watch the GalCops.Unknown, but thought to have peaked at 250 in service in 2274. The Romulan Bird Of Prey has been given the role of police, and the scan_class = 'CLASS_POLICE'. I have posted up a new link for this oxp that addresses that problem. It has been noted that the Romulan Bird Of Prey is either not showing up in the game, or is missed because of its role. What ever your tastes in ships, I hope you will enjoy this combo pack if for nothing more than eye candy. It's hard not to keep building these ships, as they are what I consider the coolest kind, but I realize that I may be in the minority. It's cloak, and dark profile, as well as relatively high speed, and quickness make it a perfect 'strike' craft. It's not the fastest, or the slowest, and is in fact in the same max speed range of three others in this package. The Apex just fits right into the same line as all the others. One of them, the Piranha, is extremely fast, but has a low energy recharge rate, and no WitchSpace capability, having to ride the wake of what ever ship it is escorting through the WitchSpace jump. In fact, there are a couple that are only police ships. It includes the previously released FireBird, Marauder, Romulan Bird Of Prey, Razor, Slasher, Piranha, SunSkipper, and the unreleased ships, Apex, and Shuriken.Д®very ship was designed for hunter, escort, pirate, and police roles. This is a collection of hunter, fighter, attack ships that didn't fit into the other combo packs I have released. For a catalogue of products: Click here for details! MANDOTECH ATTACK SHIPS
