Justin,
Thank you SO VERY much! I assume that the 12cm rail guns are =
secondary (for planetary bombardment maybe?) weapons, and the 6cm =
electron beam cannons are heavy anti-fighter/frigate guns (or maybe =
disabling/short-circuiting weapons a la Star Wars ion cannons?). As far =
as small cannons go, several batteries of gatlting a/a lasers scattered =
around the ship for point defense against fighters/missles certainly =
makes sense. And for the missles, the Brunhild fired a cruise nuclear =
missle in the first movie, so it no doubt carries a few of them in one =
or two launchers, plus probably lighter missles for anti-warship/fighter =
duties in several silos. Any one have other ideas/suggestions?

> Good luck on the stats - I was thinking about doing Palladium RPG =
stats on these ships (much the same way Kitsune on the web did with his =
Star Trek, Star Wars, and Babylon 5 ship/fighter conversions) but am =
obviously (VERY) hampered in two ways: #1 - I don't have the Databook or =
Alba guide, and #2 I CAN'T READ A WORD OF JAPANESE!!!!!!!! :( -so it =
would all be guesswork from the Alba model kits I have and the episodes =
themselves. But a request - do you (or anyone on this list) have the =
stats for Brunhild translated? My interest is twofold: I'm building the =
Alba 1/5000 kit and would like to add a stats page to my display base =
(dimensions, crew complement, weapons, etc.) and this would be THE ship =
to start translating into Palladium system stats if I can get info on =
it. I DEEPLY appreciate anyone's help on this matter!=20
