just the size of the Battlestar classic ... the "not so great model" of a battlestar. - or in other words - a medium sized - but rather light battleship. - the battlestars ... in disco lore ... are no "full" battleships, but the closest thing to civilian battleships.
so i think a not so fearful look - and a size that is less efficient than a real military vessel is in order.
and - no - before i have actually textured it - it makes little sense to really compare it to other ships. but it would be much bigger than a lib dreadnought for sure - ... um.. almost every battleship is bigger than a lib DN anyway.
its a foggy description there .... i think they are a joint project initiated by zoners, cause they found those alien sources - but somewhat produced by the IMG, cause they felt like they needed a share in some battleship production.
but all in all the ID card is more an excuse to include them ... all in all - they are regarded as zoner BBs that are ... in contrast to the juggernaut ( which is for zoners ONLY ) ... free for all those that need a low key battleship.
btw. - the "wings" are not wings - but 4 launch tubes for fighters - ... so it would take up a role .. not of a fully fletched carrier, but of an explorer ship that can deply probes and smaller ships easier than through a classic docking bay.
but to be honest - i have no real clue - this ship was assembled with only aesthetics in mind and not any functionality.

I don't exactly remember what the infocard states, but the IMG player faction doesn't have anything to do with the battlestars - they're CR only. For what it's worth...
Jinx, what about instead of the "wing" approach, a landing bay running length-wise along the ventral side, but with a couple outgrowths port and starboard for launch tubes - generally a bit more streamlined?
