My first ship. (WIP)
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v107/ ... arrage.jpg
This is Barrage, a super-heavy Bombardment Destroyer, and i need some suggestions for tweaking.
First off, this ship is meant to wreak havoc on other Destroyers and hold it's own against Battleships. It's supposed to be extremely vulnerable from the rear, and weak at short range.
The barrage has overlapping armor plates that's intended to represent the fact that it can survive beatings from the front and sides, and relatively low Core HP.
Any ideas on what i can do to tweak it? It currently wreaks (too much) havoc on Alien Dreads and can almost solo one.
Thanks in advance.

This is the v2 Barrage. It can outright kill a pirate cruiser in single combat, but things get complicated when there's more than one opponent.
My thoughts: Perfect.
Changes from v1:
Removed Flak Gun
Removed one Weasel Gun, and placed the remaining one on the core.
Added Teller Torpedo module for flanking fire capability.
Custom stats:
Blasters arc increased to 270 degrees.
Weasels arc limited to 30 degrees.
I'll be doing some tweaking to fine tune the ship a little more before uploading it.

Renamed 'Barrage' to 'Ante'.
Ante:
- Adv. [before] , of place or time; Prep. [before], of place or time; 'ante urbem conditam', [before the founding of the city]; of preference, [sooner than, above].
The Ante's Teller Torpedo. Used properly, this weapon can disable key components and/or sections in an enemy ship.
The Ante successfully dislodges a key section of this Alien Armored Cruiser with a well-placed Plasma Charge.

You'll need something like WinRAR (though I prefer 7zip ) for .rar files. .rar has marginally better compression over .zip so some people use .rar instead of .zip.Captain Trek wrote:Could you possibly upload the Ante as a different file type, Afoxi? I have no idea how to use rar files...
But here it is as a .zip file - I didn't change anything or add/remove any files from the .rar; http://www.wyrdysm.com/battleshipsforev ... s/Ante.zip
