Cheers for that LS - mediafire is blocked on my hall net

If you could perhaps host AD's specific sections there as well I would be most great full.

Thank you Lightstriker!

you're welcome, but can we please get back on topic now?

Also, AD, I would recommend upping the damage on the Varis a bit, or giving it a bit more hp. As is, it's a tad weak.
Could be just me though

edit: actually, that appears to be somewhat true of all your ships. they all seem a bit weaker than the balancing fleet. Although, with that said, they work very well in numbers, and they're generally smaller than their corresponding size class so... I have no problems really

(although I MIGHT boost the exarch a tad) very nice work overall though.

I was actually worried about them being too strong.

I'll boost the ships you mentioned a bit, and I have a request. Any chance I'd be allowed to make the Glorious Divinity (which I'm now including into the minifleet project) a class A Dreadnought? It's a supercapital, after all.

Also, thanks for uploading those sections and saving me the trouble

Now that's one nasty quote. These ships are proper fly for sure.
No, seriously, these ships are really nice. Miniships? Make a bigger one, for Cronus' sake!

This stuff belongs in the Holy Ship archive.

Though, for a 5th faction, it's kind of iffy. These ships are much more powerful, larger and more advanced(aesthetically and functionally) than the existing stock ships, and make them look like space junk with popguns in comparison. Unless of course some major overhaul of the stock ships is planned...

these aren't balanced to stock ships, in any way, shape or form

Skrim · Post by **Skrim** » Thu Mar 12, 2009 2:19 pm

Even if they were rebalanced against the stock ships they'd still be really, really... different. Just compare an Exarch to a Hecate.

What, you're saying th15 can't update his style to match? I bet he's cooking up something awesome right this very second.

So no, I am not saying what you think I am saying.

Haven't had a chance to fully test either your fleet or this ship individually, but Glorious Divinity appears to suffer from an under-protected core(or maybe something funky with parenting but I don't think so). My ship was a good match when I attacked it from the side but when I got a few shots in head on, the whole ship blew in under a minute. Otherwise performs beautifully! Just throwing that out there...

ArcaneDude · Post by **ArcaneDude** » Sun Mar 15, 2009 3:07 pm

I know, that does happen. This is largely due to the parenting, I may consider giving the structurally important sections more HP.
