This is a systems alert to all space-faring nations. The Iron Reich deep space
Stealth Freighter 443-GHOUL has fallen into the hands of the dead 20th century
actor Lee Van Cleef. He is now a vampiric space-pirate, bent on pillaging the
shipping lanes of deep space.

non-sequiturs are appreciated

| Well, dang. That's one pretty ship you've built there. I think the mouth of the cargo bay and the pods on the side are simply the best. Very well done. Having said that. . . a stealth frieghter!? Hmm, I must be more careful on the interstellar (...) (20 years ago, 24-Nov-03, to lugnet.space)

| You sure are creative Mr. Goldman. This ship is too cool for words. The engines, front loading bay, and layered construction of are all fantastic. Man, I can't figure out how you keep delivering the goods with each new creation. Ah! The heck with (...) (20 years ago, 25-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| *snip* I'm think I'm just as impressed as everyone else seems to be, so I won't write too long a post about this truly awesome freighter. I really don't have anything negative to say about it. The shape is great, the greeblies are radical and like (...) (20 years ago, 25-Nov-03, to lugnet.space)

| (...) The detail on that is so good it almost looks like a micro-fig scale ship. I am just guessing that the crazy angles and insane detailing prevented any but the most basic internal room/detail. Definately one of the best SHIPs ever. -Mike (...) (20 years ago, 25-Nov-03, to lugnet.space)

| Very nice, and appropriately Freudian. I'm a big fan of triangular shapes, and this ship delivers. The repetitive design turned me off at first, but it's growing on me. I'm not so hot on the bridge placement. The bridge-on-top cliche is wearing (...) (20 years ago, 29-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
