I don't think it has a dieterling, that center part looks like the tractor beam and the two large modules on the wings look like rorschach. But I'll do it anyway. :D http://www.mediafire.com/?yhzbonum9vq It now has a dieterling, and I swapped out some of the weapons for ones more suitable for a ship...

Maybe. :D Ok. :) http://www.mediafire.com/?cd2vpmvyrjc EDIT: After tabulating all the points: Weapons/Modules/PD:470 Speed/Manueverability:69 Core HP: 30 Section HP boost: 315 Total:884 So it might be a little bit tougher than the Mothership. :D For section HP I assumed that the average HP for all s...

Can you take a pic of the parenting? It looks solid, but parenting shows more details, and allows me to run simulations in my head. :D Are you certain that a turning of .24 will keep the aegis facing the mothership? Seems a liitle slow. Just because it's big does not mean it's slow! While demeters a...

:D This reminded me of Sinistar at first. It's so neat :D

Please make a version without weapons available too, the scheme is just to great to break with weapons and modules.

I know we're not allowed to make a firing arc bigger but can we shrink it? Was there any response to this? Sorry, didn't see that. I can't really see any problems with it, so unless you come up with a design that totally abuses something I've overlooked, go for it. Fantastic! Really, its a fix for ...

Thats actually one of the main reasons I think Alpha Team had so much trouble with first mothership. The could get past the massive amount of laser PD the test ship had, but the real mothership could stop a lot of their fire power with just 8 flaks.

Leave all weapons on default. The Section HP only applies to sections. :D Low HP is a drawback of some weapons, so it should stay default on all your weapons and modules.

If you place railguns on a fast long range frigate, having them turn a lot to track their target is impractical, since their tracking is so slow. I find it better in such a case to reduce the arc by half and increasing the turning rate of the ship means that it will fire less often, but it will only...

It was the constant stream of tachyons. they went deeper into the ship and damaged sections well behind the front. It works very well, and I think demonstrates that even the normal Tachyons show promise, and a Tachrepeater isn't the end-all-be-all.

Here is what I see in the Mothership, nearest I can tell: http://www.mediafire.com/?8kxyxt2yyid It probably is a little bigger than the real mothership in the center there. I guessed with a few modules and what is hidden by the scaffolding. It beats Team Beta from the last tournament, so it passes t...

I was actually impressed with Lloyd's ship. I tested it, and 8 of them can defeat the mothership from the last tournament. However when I test it with what ships we have now together, we usually get destroyed. Might be different since the other ships are unknown values. But we shall see. :D

I think the Athena would be better served as a 3 Shock Beamer broadside rather than a 3 railgun broadside. Since its slow, when something moves out of its broadside firing arc, all it does is give those weapons time to charge up. I think it would add a nice play mechanic, where you save your broad s...

I only suggested the name because I think you asked for one a few posts ago.
