readme

I've been working for some time on the model, only to discover now, I wasn't the only one. Well, hope you like this one.


"After the battle with Shinzon's Scimitar, the Romulan High Command decided to add more weapon and defence systems to the ships of this class. Now the Romulan fleet has one of the most powerful ships in the Alpha Quadrant."


As allways, thanks to Wrath of Achilles for his Texture Tutorial and Major A Payne for his SodTutorial.
