I find your lack of faith disturbing.

I find your lack of approving lackness disturbing. and your lack of approval for approaching nirvana.

My ships are all based on the 35th.... WAIT!! That fleet doesn't exist, everyone back to what you were doing before.

Finally got an idea for a ship.

the UTCr Liberty is the newest carrier in the terran fleet. Though the carrier is not bigger than previous designs (being 250m in length) it houses more fighters and weaponry thanks to the compact storage system that allows to assemble and disassemble fighters fast and storage them more efficiently. The smaller hangar allowed the UTCr liberty to carry more weapons into combat, giving it the firepower of the Hyperion in close range. It carries 16 plasma cannons and 2 beam cannons into combat. The Liberty also provides sufficient speed and maneuverability to provide fighters where needed when needed. The ship carries medium armor and shields so it requires escorts to oppose heavy firepower. It can carry 14 deployed wings and 28 disassembled wings , giving overall of 128 fighters.

Your ships are so much more realistic than mine. Not as detailed (pretty), but just as cool none the less.

I'm torn between crying because your ships are so awesome, or crying because they're so bad.

My mind is confused.

That is one sexy looking carrier! Usually I dislike asymmetry, but your ship really pulls it off!

p.s. Love the texture pack.

BTW how's my writing (I mean description) ?

Use less "the"s and try to find a median between run-ons and fragments in there, to put it bluntly. Another thing worth noting is that while listing all your ship's abilities and strengths is all well and dandy, without displaying some sort of weakness the entire writeup seems like some fail invincible superhero overview.

I know that. all my ships have weaknesses. Take the UTD Raynor for example - Big firepower and heavy armor that decreased speed, hyperdrive recharge speed and docking bay capacity.

I don't think its in the maker's best interest to give you, a potential enemy, a list all of his ships' weaknesses. That's something you should have to find out for yourself on the battlefield.

Also, I don't think that his new carrier got the attention it deserved last week. It looks great, and I hope he's building more!

Nice! The new ship looks great.

I like these ships, maybe the best on the fourms.

Do more alien ships, they look amazing.

Iv, your Lucifer in thew OP and in your sig are facing different directions. To me personally it looks cooler in the sig, but it is actually facing left? It looks cooler when the front is on the right side according to your sig.

Uh if I take my sig an flip it to the left (By pressing "flip horizontally" in photoshop) you think it will look better ? Srsly it looks the same. The one in the sigg looks better couse I played there with lights, shades and the background in photoshop. Besides that they are all the same. Maybe if you flip a picture and compare it to another one you will prefer one of them over the other, but if you flip it again and compare again you may prefer the other one. It's just psychological.

I daresay Iv is the best shipbuilder on the forums.

No In your sig, is the ship heading left or right? I looked at the pictures and it is FACING the other way there. Saying if the back was front and front was back as it appears to be in your sig, it looks cooler.

I really don't think it matters.

exactly

It COULD matter, just not now. Time paradoxes and all, y'know.

Working on anything?

Just planned to upload one .

The UTC Rigos is the most advanced Heavy Cruiser in the terran fleet. It was primarily designed to engage enemy capital ships. It has 10 heavy plasma cannons, one torpedo launcher and one prime plasma cannon located in the front of the ship. Significant space from the ship's hull is it's Plasma prime cannon. This weapon is similar in design to the Hyperion's prime cannon though it's slightly weaker. The ship became a well valued unit on the battlefield for it's ability to outrun what it cannot outgun and outgun what it cannot outrun. Ships of this class are usually combined into task groups and sent to clean out heavier foes or other task groups of cruisers. The ship's weak point is it's air defence. Though existent it does not possess sufficient strength to effectively protect the vessel. It is usually escorted by fighters or a light cruiser.

It's just something small I though of . Im working on something much bigger right now.

Looks nice, as always, but is quite small.

You can't build a navy only out of 500m long monsters. You need small ships. This one is not that small being 125m long, around 1/3 of your ship.

Another solid looking ship, thanks for sharing!
