You can try right now, but if your ships are not up to his standards he can't accept them.

[ArcaneDude]

Quality is of course required. Build as many ships for it as you want, but if they're not good they're not getting in. Exactly what happened to Hiant.

[Kane]

Is it me or does the Vox Vocis class Heavy Dreadnought look like a tadpole?

[Anna]

Perhaps if tadpoles were made of steel, triangular, and had lots of nice, sharp edges, sure.

Wait, wait... sorry, the answer I was looking for there was "No. Just no."

What are you talking about, all my tadpoles are made of steel and are triangular.

If you want to lose your ear, that's the right way to go.

Come on now, he's not Van Gogh, you're not a hooker and he's not Dutch.

[ArcaneDude]

I know that I'm not Dutch. What is this heresy?

[Gkug]

I offer you the CSS Enduring Flame.

Backstory:
The Enduring Flame is the newest Battlecruiser built in the Orbital docks of Cerebus Prime, it was built to celebrate the alliance between the Cerebus Sovereignty and the Imperial Principality of stars.

Recently the Enduring Flame went under a refit to allow it operate for longer periods, away from supply stations. Once the Refit was complete it was sent to MRA space, to offer assistance to the movement. Until it's called back or when it is not needed any more.

Looking nice, Gkug. Keep working on it.

Kay:

Blastech Mining Corp Proudly presents:

Some more ships



Yes, We at Blastech Value the number of ships exploding things over all else, That's why, we present our Latest ships and some refits to some old ones!

Ultima Class Dreadnaught:

The big sucka' on the right. That's the Blastech Mobile Headquarters and refinery, tweaked to happily provide the level of long range power and rainbow blaster colours you have come to expect from Blastech!

Features:
- 4 x 1Gw Plasma cannons (2 per broadside, all 4 can fire forward)
- 18 x 0.5Gw Plasma cannons (9 per broadside, no forward firing)
- 38 x 90Mw Plasma cannons (19 per side, 4 forward, 4 back firers)
- 8 x 5Kt Torpedo launchers.
- 14 Asteroid melting lasers
- 0 Deflectors

can go toe to toe with the Storm.

Argos Class Destroyer

The medium sized sucka on the top middle. This is the first combat ship designed and built by Blastech! Our Crummy deflectors may not work as well as any other corporation, but they get the job done (for about 20 seconds). This ship lacks some of the sturdier plating used on our mining ships because it was never designed to bounce away minable space rocks like footballs.

Features:

- 1 x 0.5Gw Plasma cannon (both broadsides)
- 12 x 190Mw Plasma cannons (6 per broadside, 2 forward)
- 20 x 75Mw Plasma cannons (10 per broadside)
- 8 x Microlaser point defences
- 3 Blastech "Crummy Deflectors" Class Deflectors.

This is designed to go up against the Tornado class.

Athlon Class Heavy Frigate

The Small ship on the top right. The second combat ship designed by Blastech, this Ship carries a number of pathetic Deflectors that are crummy. However, it is small and nimble and the small size means it's broadsides are almost as wide as the front of it, making it a smaller target.

Features:

- 6 x 0.5Gw Plasma cannons (3 per broadside)
- 14 x 75Mw Plasma cannons (7 per side)
- 6 x Microlaser Poit defence systems.
- 2 Blastech "Crummy Deflectors" Class Deflectors.

This is designed to go up against the Windforce class.

Nihlanth Class Heavy Cruiser

Nihlanth has already been done.

Torpedo (-T) varients

Nihlanth-T Class Torpedo Cruiser

The ship with lots of Torpedo tubes, 3 along the bottom, next to the Nihlanth. A Supporting role form of the Nihlanth, built from partly finsihed hulls lacking the (large) Energy subsystems and Mining abilities. However, it does fire a lot of torpedos.

Features:

- 16 x 5Kt Torpedo Tubes
- 14 x 95Mw Plasma cannons (7 per side)
- 4 x 90Mw Plasma cannons (4 behind)
- 4 x Microlaser Point defence systems.
- No deflectors

Has no equivilent, but does fill a support role. Dies rather easily because of it's lack of armour (for more torpedos and launchers) and lack of point defence weapons.

Athlon-T class heavy torpedo Frigate

The bottom left Frigate. Has lots of torpedo launchers mounted in armoured "sleeves". It also has an anti fighter Missile launcher, which spread fires cluster rockets which have a higher chance of intercepting fighters.

- 2 x 95Mw Plasma cannons (1 per broadside, 2 forward)
- 8 x 5Kt Torpedo tubes.
- 2 x "Spreadfire" Blastech Cluster Missile launcher.
- 4 x Microlaser Point defence lasers.
- No deflectors.

has no equivilent, but does fill a supporting role. Dies rather fast because of it's lack of armour and PDS systems.[/b]

That looks a lot like a paradox frog tadpole.

but the ship doesn't imo. It does look like some kind of Star Destroyer (in red) though.

[Raul]

This is a design in the early phases, to be used as an escort/monitor vessel. Weapons are not yet balanced since I was trying to see the minimal damaged required for them to be affective.

For instance I found that a large Gatling blaster burst with relatively low damage knocks out aegis fields without being wank enough to blow up the ship in one shot, or sometimes even even destroy the section that had aegis...

The outrigger weapons are an attempt at something that Anna did but I have yet to get them to be effective while still looking good without absurd amounts of damage...Of course I was testing this ship against opponents with large amounts of flak so probably wouldn't be an issue on normal ships.

Willing to change whatever you want, or remove it entirely... sb3 included
I also have a variety of civilian vessels if your interested...

My offering to the great and mod-ish ArcaneDude:



No weapons yet.

[BoVinE]

Maybe I'll make one...
