Falkosi ISD

[Iain McGhee]

Does anyone know for certain whether it should be 2228 or 2288 ?

I'm sure it's just a typo rather than an intended change, but I'm ordering some Pikatos so I'd like to know how many I'll need !

it's a typo

How could it be 2288? The game doesn't have any in-service date that far ahead of the series timeline.

I'm curious about some of the dates, like the Vree Xill. The fluff text says it was in service for the Dilgar War, but the in-service date misses the war by a good twenty years or so...

My Brakiri (and my wallet) thank you.


More than one person has said the date's right and the Pikatos was the new baseline Brakiri fighter, although I've also said that the date was too far in the timeline to be correct, not to mention the fact that the carriers all have the Falkosi as the basic fighter carried. And some players insist on going by the letter of the rules even when it's something as obvious. Hence the question.

Some ships, like the Xill, that have different ISDs than the fluff would indicate might be refitted versions with updated weapons and such e.g. the Avioki which was around before 2250 but with not much more than it's beam weapons and probably weaker armour.

That should be it about the ISDs.

Stuff like the 3rd age Nova is a pretty good explanation. It already existed during the Dilgar war, but has had a huge weapons refit since that time.
