Major Update: Version 0.7 - Angel's Judgement
Ah, another weekend, another big update for all'a'yer! This time it's a focus on utility and balance - while one more ship has been removed from service in this mod, we welcome a whole host more!
For instance, there's the new Sturmovik Missile Destroyer, a low-tech missile boat and it's rare stock-hull Sturmovik (S) Salvage & Recovery Barge counterpart. Joining them in the world of low-tech is the Retribution Cruiser, a lighter alternative to the popular Dominator, that is fully capable of matching most competition with its focused ballistic weaponry and Accelerated Ammo Feeder! Big shout-out to Chloe who devised the original sprite for this.
Moving up to midline designs, the Sparrow Corvette and Harrier Cruiser have both received a fancy upgrade to their flare launcher systems. Unique to these house favourites is the new Burst Flare Launcher - rapid-fire, short-duration flares to be used in the heat of the moment!
The somewhat iffy Seraphim-C Light Carrier has been removed* for impracticality. However, I'm sure you'll enjoy flying it's replacement, the much more aggressive Constellation Combat Carrier, a front-focused high-tech light carrier with an additional sensory package for added punch.
The stock Seraphim Missile Destroyer is star of the show today though, and has experienced a massive weaponry overhaul. It's large missile mount is no longer modular, but instead harbours a unique custom weapon: the Judgement Spire Launcher, a railgun-launched kinetic torpedo of huge proportions. (Huge thanks to MesoTronik for advice and material for the awesome audio file this beastly weapon includes!)
All in all, the new is great and the old is only getting better, so take some time to enjoy the new ships and see the sights!
As always, check the OP for more details.
