Somehow I feel like the Sabre needs to be a bit longer and a bit thinner at the bow section, right now I am thinking "broadsword" when I look at it. Colorscheme seems interesting, complementary contrast can be really cool. The ships look very "alien" I like that. What are the two red sections at the sabre's bow?
I assume the Sagaris mounts a big beam weapon at its bow, is that right? Because that would make an interesting shape.
Well you're right, I was mostly reusing the names I used in BSF, this destroyer has a similar shape to the sabre I made for BSF, so I gave it the same name. I would like to avoid using the name broadsword though, same issue with stuff like greatsword, waraxe, battleaxe, etc. I thought about using gladius but that's already ingame, perhaps "spatha" might be a good fit.
About the red plates, that's nothing special, just an armor plate painted red.
About the sagaris, yeah it is a large weapon, but that might change if I find it's too overpowered for a destroyer. Even though the "sabre" has a large turret, the rest of its mounts are not that well distributed, so that balances it... somewhat (it can only have PD facing backwards, unless you want to sacrifice some of the front facing harpoints).
Very cool looking destroyers, Machine. Nice work. I can see that the engineers who worked on those ship designs loved the Medusa's blueprints. Absolutely nothing wrong with that, I really like both of the designs. Good stuff.
Hehe, thanks. I actually love the medusa, probably my favourite ship along the paragon, I even considered just adding a green with some red details medusa, and call it a day

, I would like opinions on the issue
