Hi everyone, Well, I finally have a mini-page up for _Suffren_. It contains much backstory, so page down to the bottom half if you need either the links for the old command module shots or the thumbnails/image links to the "new stuff" and don't (...)

I LOVE your new "snub" fighters with their little docking module. That is a very elegant solution for a destoyer-size capital ship that doesn't have the luxury of a landing bay. One technical concern: It appears that the whole module serves as an (...) (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)

(...) Hey, thanks! I like the fighters too; they came out nicely. Unfortunately the engines don't like to stay on as tightly as they should (grumble). Ah well, they do *look* nice. (...) Yeah, I've been aware of this since I built it (in fact, the (...) (25 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)

Wow, five, huh? MMMmmmm reactor core.... I need to invest in more bricks before I can build anything bigger than about 3 feet long. It's going to exhaust most of my blue, gray, and black parts to finish this destroyer. If only TL would release a (...) (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)

(...) The reactor's not even close to being started, but I do have an update up--I've "treed" the page out, I have a lot more photographs, and so forth. It's starting to *look* French!
