D'tallax Class Warbird
A nice Romulan design, the D'tallax sort of reminds one of the Melak design, fitting somewhere before the D'deridex in Romulan ship evolution but equipped identically to stock Armada. Frostmourn4 has done an amazing job with equipping this design, converted to A2 by the incomparable Pepperman.
Worth a look even if you're not playing A1.

In regards to the D'tallax, the file description is a little misleading, as it says that this reminds of the Melak, not a fault to whoever wrote that, they probably thought the same as me to be quite honest.
A nice release nevertheless.
On BC there is a ship called "Vmelak" . Would be
