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!

Nice.

I'd just like to point out that long-range sidewinders don't work very well; They typically curve too fast and end up short of the target. :?

Ya, I really hate that. No matter how big the burst and deviation is, my long ranged sidewinders never hit anything smaller than 100 pieces (yes, I know there's a very broad definition of 100 pieces, but you all know what I mean). Also, why don't you want to stretch the first post? It's fun and it means people have to scroll down more to find stuff, and that's always good.

The sidewinders have 200% speed, so they will hit enemies that are not retreating. And well if they're retreating that means you're not assaulting the enemy from all sides as any Alliance attack should.

I will post a copy of the Alliance of Free stars ships in the first post then. I thought a huge first post might be a bit daunting but if thats not the case, time to make it huger :D

Bumping for great justice.

The last of the five fleets, the Cygnian Warlords, has been posted after inactivity due to finals. These ships have actually been made quite a while ago. The ships are supposed to bear a faint resemblance to old Terran ships, however the resemblance is faint due to the Warlords' redesigns. They are like shadows or corrupted versions of the originals. Anyways, this faction is not too strong and is mainly there to add a pirate-ish presence to the otherwise well-organized political entities that the other states are.

Next will be stations and freighters for all the factions, then afterwards their enemies will be in a new thread. This includes the obligatory xenocidal alien menace.

EDIT: Downloads are up! Contains the stations as well as the ships (including some new ships not yet mentioned :) )

I agree with kaaskopp, the whole group of fleets is amazing (which is probably why Arc made it the fleet of the week). The Cygnians look great (as do all the other ships. Can you post some pics of the stations and the unmentioned ships?

Very nice! I love the Monolith, it's so well done. I know you said description pending, but are you going to make these sort of things for all of the five states, or only for New Terra?
