The Exeter firing its forward micro-missile batteries at a distant target.
Individually, a micro-missile is useless against anything smaller than a Gunboat, but in a full swarm the damage increases dramatically.

Image
Facing heavier oppositon, the Exeter fires two of its particle lances.

After comparing its size to other ships the Exeter is marked as a Tactical Cruiser.

Definitely liking the designs...yellow works although I was figuring you would add more colors not just switch to a different one, but who am i to talk. If your gonna do the blacked out hull, it looks good, but add colored details over it to break up the black. ie:a com tower or gun turret should be at least slightly brighter to stand out.

I forgot to do the color breaks like I did on my other ships. :lol:
I'll try to fix that, if possible.

:shock: And I thought that the last generation Spootech ships kicked ass. This incarnation kicks your ass, then boils you alive before incinerating your bones to fertilize a field of venomous acid spewing death orchids.

And it's yellow... :shock:

After using ChaosTheory's black / green color scheme I told myself I'd try to find a set that looked good with yellow ablatives and outlines.

Wow, I got a lot of comments compared to my other ships on this one, :lol: I guess I'll see how my Orion turns out when I work on it.

this ship is totally awesome, the orange makes a huge difference to the overall feeling of the ship!

The Exeter is finally finished, I'll be putting it up to see what everyone thinks of it.

Image
This just shows the color additions.

Image
The broadside capabilities of the Exeter, the flurry of micro-missiles can be difficult to fend off, and distracting for point defense weapons.

Image
The enemy will have problems when the Exeter begins its frontal assault using its particle lance cannons and railguns.

There's the download, all I'll say is the weapon names aren't super fancy.
Have fun with it.
Engines are a little funny, losing one disables the ship...forgot to work on those.

What, you don't think it looks cool? :lol:
At least it's not all green. :wink:
I'm just pulling your leg Kira.
