I like this. Very well thought out. The Zentraedi as presented by Harmony Gold and therefore Palladium we always missing some things in terms of support and logistics. The Zents were seriously lacking in the basic skills that make a combat unit combat worthy. I get that they used alot of automated systems, but such was never covered. Ammo loaders, simple repairs, cleaning weapon ports, the entire logistics sceem of keeping five million warships operational. None of these concerns were addressed to my statisfaction.
Bravo I say.

So, the first class of these support vessels acts as a ''drover'' type, providing refit or retrofit items, like that wich is listed; the second class is a minesweeper or ''sniffer'', making a safe path for the more capable ships; and the third is a ''triage'' type, providing what we Humans call 'meatball' repairs, just enough to keep them marginally space worthy. Is that correct?'

Most of it is crap, mind you, but I think you'll find a few good ships to use... potentially in your work here.
Didn't have the one I was looking for.

Good work Andy .

the novels used the T'sen version after the macross part.
use what you like, i think we agree'd to treat it as the way the Zent's refer to themselves.
think of it like accents. the only difference really is the emphasis is slightly different
