Love that more Harpoon ships coming out.

As far as able to tell the only major difference is the layout of phalanx and ram weapon.

Maybe those can be a separate bit so both class of ships can be modeled.

I completely agree, thenorthman. I raised this point to them via email and the response I got was that is not how they do it for naval miniatures. Though they do do it for some microarmor.

Even if the change is more than just the placement of the point defense systems, the hull and much of the superstructure should be able to be the same at least.

Perhaps if enough people ask for it, then they will change their mind. Two ships for the price of one and a third still seems like a good choice.
