Unfortunately paint.net isn't available to macs (sob), but I use a combination of GIMP and Pixen. Pixen for most of my editing, as it's very simple and intuitive while I can transfer things over to GIMP for color alterations if need be.

Try starting off with kitbashing, or simply re-arranging parts to make secondary versions of ships. Then move onto the massive list posted by sprog. Spriting calls you! Don't give up on it!

Wouldn't this then go to the suggestions forum then? 
Either way I like the idea.

Technically the Mjolnir is used on two ships, the Elite Onslaught and the Conquest

No need for any personal attacks or bashing on this forum. Enough is enough and we're almost at the point where we can say we're somewhat civilized, that the moment any of us express an opinion or a confusion we don't get immediately shut down by the community. That being said, I hope that Catra as well as the rest of us can restrain ourselves (including yourself voyager).

Now back on the topic of Mjolnir balance, anyone like the idea of the Mjolnir being a way to suddenly slow down other ships? (like how the graviton beam gradually reduces speed, but instead of a beam, implemented in one powerful shot)

Lemme just post the lore here for convenience's sake:

A medium range cannon that delivers superior damage over time and also has a significant EMP payload.

A very advanced design, the Mjolnir is technically a magneto-gravitic shell projector, not a standard cannon. The micro capacitors within each shell are able to deliver enough energy to create a localized singularity with a Schwarzschild radius of 1.8 millimeters. The built-in gravitic lens devastates all nearby matter and creates the electromagnetic pulse (EMP) effect, disabling the target's weapons and systems.

He is proposing a change. As in not the same.

I guess we can alter the lore a bit. But it does shoot solid slugs.

Maybe it could make the ship more vulnerable to damage, like increase damage by a percentage. It's able to be done as seen through HEF.

Haha I remember all of those posts about damage over time in the suggestions, incendiary weapons and acid weapons and everything, how they wouldn't be viable. Now we're suggesting it again

It's an opinion, it doesn't need to be based on fact. People can think whatever they want to think. And Catra, you're no tyrannical thought police, you're a normal human being like the rest of us. You definitely have opinions about us that might be unwarranted or extreme, but oh well! Get over it and let's keep talking about Mjolnir balance.

I guess the Mjolnir kind of fits with the Heavy Blaster, and they're pretty in line with each other. Yet considering the variance in OP cost as well... Mjolnir might need a damage and flux boost to fit with the Heavy Blaster model.

Oh dear god. Oh dear god, this is not going to go well.


HOW can mjolnir cannons do DOT?

the mjonlnir cannons essentially shoot mini black holes.

And those black holes stay there for a little while at least.

The flux drop doesn't have to be that much. Maybe by 80-160 flux per second.

Yeah, there's already other weapons that fill the "Shield Puncher" and "Armor Puncher" role. I think EMP is out of the question to, considering that the small mount Ion Cannon does much more EMP dps than the Mjolnir.

I remember someone saying it could be a DOTS (Damage Over Time) weapon, which might fit with the lore a bit too since it talks about singularities and other fancy stuff.

EDIT: We get it, the general opinion is that Catra is a forum troll. Don't have to exert this opinion EVERY OTHER POST

Are there any needs for new weapons for those factions? I've already started working on some more Tholian weaponsn because I've found the arsenal a little lacking.
