And now for my second ship, the Fleet Carrier. It's a fun ship, very powerful but with vulnerabilities to multiple strong targets. And Lancets :D

...and the Dagger ship! And it looks like a dagger too! :p

Anyway, it can and will take down every singe target. But it loses to two Cronus in the hands of the player. So the Cronuscount for this one is two, with both surviving :D

Here we see it stabbing into a Leviathan. Takes it down in about a minute.

Guess what I've been playing recently;

Not 100% accurate to the original, but pretty close without a reference, I think.

Wrong. :P

I probably need to polish it up a bit anyway. Don't let this pic decieve you, as far as I can tell, the entire wing is a straight line, it just has some vertical bends;

This is my first post, and my first ship. Hope you like it. I kinda screwed up because I built it in just one direction, and then noticed you can't move the core :p Well, live and learn I guess.
Happens all the time
Umm yeah you can... highlight the core and Shift+ArrowKey it.

Actually the first thing that came to my mind was that weird cloaking flamethrower ship from the Star Control games, though I forget what it was called.

Ilwrath Avenger. ;)

@ Ara;

:P It was nice to make something small for a change.

Ship Production is currently somewhat on a hold while I'm waiting for the next file format to happen. Eitherway, I've made something small for a change as well.

DL-Link

This ship is somewhere inbetween a cruiser and a full grown Battleship. It gets picked apart easily by smaller crafts if they're fast enough to actually stay behind it.
The ship got its name because of the seemingly random movement patterns due to the Dieterling Device and the Frosch Gun mounted on the ship. Most of the time the Kobold uses a stun, hit and run strategy on larger ships but should push come to shove it can keep its beamweapon firing for a nearly infinite amount of time.

Yes I know it's underpowered and basically a onetrick pony. :P

Some talk of first ships brought me back to the old Sentry. I don't recall ever "publishing" the Mark Two, which was a massive leap up from the Mark One. I decided to dig the Mark Two out and refurbish it for more balanced gameplay, so here it is, reborn as the Monitor-class Dreadnaught. It actually has relatively balanced stats now. It handles worse than a Hecate or Athena but has superior armour and it's beamers cover decent arcs.

I retained the aegis shielding but toned it down a lot, as well as placing the generators in exposed positions, so it should be a bit more feasible to fight. It also has a lot less PD. Due to the beam-based loadout, it also fits a Flux Shield Projector. It's essentially a narrower, larger, slower Cronus with much more defense;

Image

Below are the Mark 1(.2) (top) and Mark 2 (bottom)

Will post the Monitor once I'm happy it's sane. ;)

Here are some multi-Purpose Frigates i made to play around with.

Image

They seem pretty big compaired to the games ships for frigate class... and they are kind of powerful compaired to the premade ships. as i found from play testing them, auto balancing for the win! http://www.wyrdysm.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=526

Id like to nerf the range on the Drone frigates Point defence.

My first six ships! WOOHOO

-Amaclyne
Medium Destroyer with good foward offence capability, but vulnerable rear and core.
Image

-Resunicarthe
Amaclyne variant with added beamers on wings for assaulting around frontal defences.
Image

-Tetrithydan
Battlecruiser built on Amaclyne design, with exceptional foward offence capability, multiple 360 degree GatBlasters but retains Amaclyne's vulnerability.
Image

-Baroque
Battleship of older design, powerful broadside turrets and missile launchers and good defensive capabilities but with no real punch.
Image

-Propraetor
Battleship based on Imperator design, extremely powerful in broadside attacks, but with poor manueverability and exposed rear.
Image

-Inquisitor
Superdreadnought similar in design to Propraetor with additional stern defences and increased variety of offensive weaponry.
Image


Since the images aren't to scale, here is all 6 in formation.

I think photobucket is being a whore. Normally it works fine, but today it seems that pictures hosted on photobucket don't want to load. :?
