Hello, this is Sean. I have been busy for a while, so I haven't been
around to talk on the group for a while. I hope that you understand,
I am a busy man at times.

I would like to reply to this topic to see if I can extend it. I
know that it is an old topic, but I think that this may help people.
You see, I read this topic, and I liked it. I was thinking if there
was a way to extend this topic to include other things.

Of course, other things could include what TaskRon 101 would look
like. They could also include what the three unit structures would
look like as well. Currently, the Patrol unit structure has been
done. But what about the Strike and Quick Response unit structures?
I would think that this would really help people in this board to get
a good idea of what the circa-1140 Regency Navy would look like.

If anyone would like to contribute, feel free. I will try to provide
as much help as I can, and maybe we might come up with a lot of stuff
for the Regency Navy. Of course, if no one would like to, I would be
just fine with that.

Thank you!

Sean
