Dan's Ship Art.
« on: February 25, 2012, 11:53:47 PM »
Revamped thread to a simple Ship art thread, virtually all of it's unused, or should be at this point. I'd like to see it in game, but lack the resources. Please ask for use via a pm to use these, it's mostly so i can see it for myself and i guess to an extent moderate it.

Anything that isn't here, can be viewed by clicking this button.



A few examples of what's in the album, keep in mind i started a few days ago, so there isn't much other then these.

Version 2 of Akira Fighter Support Frigate


Said Akira In-game.




A Taurus Freighter altered to function as a carrier also.


Tweaked Conquest Battlecruiser.


Modified Tempest with a flight deck.


A civilian Onslaught Capital ship altered for Trading.


A light attack cruiser making use of the large gap in the middle of it.

I like the look of em, especially how many of them in that thread aren't symmetrical.

Also, does the ovoid frigate look like a fish to you?

The first one looks abit big to be a frigate but i like how it looks, the 4 flight decks sound abit overboard considering 2 can service 5-6 fighters fairly fast and reliably. I also hate how carriers slow you down but until we see the new fleet speed formula we dont know how its going to change.

I always thought it looked like a green penguin looking a bit off center.

A very valid point, i'd change it if i had the ability to put it in game, i noticed the capital carrier only has 3 flight decks a minute ago >_<

You won't be able to refit fighters and bombers at all. They're designed/balanced around having a particular set of weapons and would be very broken if you could change it. Which ones you pick for your fleet -out of quite a few that are available- is the choice here, not how they're outfitted.

Everything looks good except for the tempest and taurus--the condor is already a taurus converted to a carrier and for balance purposes the smallest carrier should be a destroyer.

I suppose that makes sense, though it's ship art i spliced when i was bored and was off the top of my head, it don't need to be balanced :P
