I based it off the poster of it your get with TFD:

Was somewhat successful. However, it looks a lot like a Super Dreatnaught, or something like that. I've been wondering if I should make it into one.
Any thoughts?

I say fill in the segment behind the core with a few glowy and non glowy segments, but otherwise leave as is. It's pretty awesome.

I was going off this picture:

Though the back might be a bit too open.

Yeah, the look doesn't work for something with only 2 dimensions. Fill it in with something cool.

And when someone designs an Osprey with six mining lasers, it'll be too much.

Can they do that? I don't remember if the Osprey can mount four or six.

I like it, it seems alot like the one in the picture!But maybe you could sort of shade it abit and then it would look more like it and 3Dish.

Heh, Command and Conquer ftw.

Campy, B-movie videogames aside, though, I like it. Looks very true to the original. Only problem is that the original is inherently 3D, making it hard to make in 2D BSF, but nice job anyways.

It's three with a +20% mining laser yield bonus per level of Caldari Cruiser, so at level 5 it's effectively 6.

It's all about the barges these days though.

I think that to get the beam the right size, you should replace the beamer with the mega beam. (well thats just a C&C fan's thoghts)

Zancloufer · Post by **Zancloufer** » Sun Feb 03, 2008 5:51 am

Moar damage = Wider ShockBeamer. Then you add a 500 Damage beamer under that
