I don't see where they have the TNE starships up, though. However, if you
call or e-mail them I think they will sell them to you directly. That's
the way it worked a few years ago.
The MT book "Fighting Ships" contains a whole bunch of ship designs that
are broken largely due to the problems with the MT starship design rules,
which had some issues with multiple interpretations at least. Either the
ships were designed before the rules were finalized (which is a common
problem in game design), designed with different interpretations of the
rules, or just with plain old ordinary human error. The problem was that
since the design rules were sufficiently confusing, it was impossible to
ever "fix" the ships without rewriting the ship design rules, and since we
were working on TNE anyway it did not justify the effort.
The Imperial rule on nukes would have been re-interpreted in TNE to state
"the use of nukes on a world," since all space missiles were nukes. But
since there was no Imperium left, we probably didn't explain that. All
space missiles were nuke-pumped lasers as that was the only way to
realistically make missiles work. Getting skin-to-skin contact with HE
missiles the way earlier editions assumed was just not going to happen.
