I like the design with wings better, because it looks less like some sort of flaming carrot. I agree with you about the big pieces though, because I personally don't like grotesquely enl...

I haven't been keeping track of the new Cold War organization, so I guess I'll start a new thread and leave my old fleet behind. In return, there's this: Nanking-Class Monitor http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a148/Leet_Hacksaw/screenshot144.png This is technically an HC-Tech ship, but the design pr...
