Needleship

Archives for ships and fleets. 'nuff said. Most of the ships here are very very old and will not work in current versions of BSF or SM. You have been warned!

Needleship

Post by Mjolnir »

This ship needs no description, it can talk for itself:

Surrender you ship or die. These are the only choices.

EDIT: the download is fixed. I only made this cause one of the other threads had a ship which someone mentioned that there was a ship which looked like one. I may make others.

I'm guessing that the ship is from Homeworld right?

That ship looks mighty nice. May I suggest you arm it with my SHEL-22 ;)

Yup I knew it. I remember seeing it in a mod for Homeworld 2 once.

Mjolnir: Are you going to make any other Homeworld ships? Like the Hiigaran Mothership? Also you may want to fix the link since the ship cannot be downloaded unless you remove the last three letters from the link.

...Kadeshi needleship! Needs ramming though, to re-enact bad, bad memories.

Do apologise for doublepost.

It's difficult to model Homeworld/Homeworld 2 ships that don't look distinctive, in my opinion, because from the top they all look very blocky. I have an Imperator (Homeworld 2 Hiigaran CV) and an Arbiter (Homeworld 2 Hiigaran DD) and am developing the Achaenames (HW2 Vaygr DD), because it's the only other ship that looks distinctive. Otherwise... it's hard to get a good feel for Homeworld ships. Trust me, I've tried. >_> <_<

I never understood why the two games couldn't be properly fused. HW2 could have been simply an expansion pack if it weren't for new graphics. For now we'll have to make do with mods.

I think Nexus - the jupiter incident is much better than HW2 anyway :D.

And HW1 was much better than Nexus. There's so many things that HW2 screwed up for the franchise. No fighter balls!

Combination of Homeworld 1 and Homeworld 2 aspects would have been awesome. Subsystems please!

I liked HW2's fighter squad mechanics, as it made managing them much easier, but on the other hand? The fighter tactics were terrible. Surely fighters don't really attack like that. :? I need to find a standalone of the Dynamic Fighters and Dynamic Capships (Mr. Drake's site has gone down and I CBA with PDS because I play HW2 to see pretty stuff blow up, not get drowned in tactical complexity :P) minimods.
