Please read the Veteran Comments policy before editing this section.


At a passing glance, the old Florence could be mistaken for being the EAC Eclipse from Inferno Release 1. It was in fact based on the GTCv Morana from c914's Lost Fleet ship pack. Changes included a new bridge in common with other UEF ships, a different turret layout and new textures.
