The Scimitar Project (aka Unknown Enemy has... a new Scimitar! It's based on the XWA TC model, textured by WildCat, converted by KillerWave, updated by Thomas Brucker and then hardpointed by Quarto... it looks really great, but ENOUGH WITH THE DAMN SCIMITARS!

One of our most profitable trade routes has been blockaded for some time by a group of Kindred fighters, eager to loot the shipments of jewels we carry to Hermes from Leviatha. We have had three large shipments stolen, and with the most recent one, the death of a pilot and crew.
