[QUOTE]Originally posted by Identity Crisis: [QB] I think I remember that a lot of older novels and fan works presented the Romulan Star Empire as being in a resource poor region of space. If they have no access to good supplies of dilithium then matter/anti-matter reactors are apparantly out of the question (never mind the physics...). Maybe small and/or slow ships can be made warp capable with fusion power alone. Big ships can user singularity power plants. But maybe there's a minimum size of power plant that can be built around a singularity, or maybe singularity power plants are difficult to manufacture. So a large tender with a number of sub-light vessels made the mose sense to the Romulans. Also explains the 24th C. Romulan habit of seemingly using only very small and very big ships...
