Yeah, Muug's right, the Glorious Heritage was taken straight from the show Andromeda, although I don't it's a coincidence that it looks similar to some Star Trek ships, as both Andromeda and Star Trek were created by Gene Roddenberry.
And yes, I know about the new custom colours feature. But both of those ships have 1000+ sections. Do you have any idea how tedious it would be to set the colour of each one? I'll give you a hint: very.

They're both based off the High Guard style, so it's no surprise that they would be similar. Well, actually, the Glorious Heritage is a direct rip-off of the lead ship in Andromeda, where as the Lux Maiestas was inspired by it. They're part of the same fleet, and as such, the similarities are intentional.

I love the Nero. It's got those new pulse guns on it and the Uber-mega beams on it, making it seem very Next-gen.

1green = 67

2green = 0
2red = 183
3blue = 163

There you go.
Glad you like it. I've got another ship in the works right now. Hopefully it will be just as epic.Zeron wrote:I love the Nero. It's got those new pulse guns on it and the Uber-mega beams on it, making it seem very Next-gen.

I had actually considered it, but... well, as you can see, the beam looks rather stretch, ugly and horrible, when made that large. Granted, it wouldn't lag as much, but the effect isn't as nice either. Another benefit of the multi-beamer variant is that it can focus all its firepower on a single area, or can be left with a wide beam.
I'm gonna need to remake the Deicide Superlaser, because the added modability to Megabeams made the ones of the Deicide Superlaser not work properly. I may use larger than usually mega-beamers to cut down on the sheer number of them I used on the other one, though.
154 Megabeams is a lot, even if it does look this cool:

Well, I've got eight new ships to share with you guys. Here's hoping you like them.
First up is the Mantis, a ship inspired by Talhydras' Faladhi fleet. It's a long-range ship loaded with lotsa plasmas. Enjoy.
Download the Mantis.
Next is the Mantis Beamer Variant, basically a modded version of the above ship with more armour and many short-range beams, designed for getting in close and shredding the enemy to pieces.
Download the Mantis Beamer Variant.
Third is the Avalon, which is basically just the central portion of the Mantis. It's very fast, with rapid-fire short-range weaponry. Designed for getting in upclose and personal and out-flanking larger, slower ships.
Download the Avalon.
And then there's the Unlimited Blade Works. This ship is just fun, mostly. It's fairly heavily armed, and it looks badass, in an odd, swordy sort of way.
Download the Unlimited Blade Works.
Also, the Squall. This is about the closest thing I've ever made to a stock balanced ship. In a fight against three Cronus' it takes heavy damage but survives. Were the Cronus involved under player control, they could probably beat it.
Download the Squall.
Up next is the Quetzalcoatl. This thing is... odd. It's designed primarily for short-range combat, but it can fight at long range too, although its weapons aren't quite as effective at longer ranges.
Download the Quetzalcoatl.
Now onto the really good stuff. SM3 ships completely decked out in modded weapons. Belonging to the same fleet as the Nrvnqsr, naturally. This is the Scythe.
Download the Scythe.
This is the Gauntlet, a fairly maneuverable, heavily armed and armoured TANK of a ship. It's nasty. And awesome.
Download the Gauntlet.
And lastly is the Nanaya Mk.II. A ship that I was building earlier that I recently remade in SM3 and gave a completely new arsenal. Check it out.
Download the Nanaya Mk.2.
