The H.A.F. (Human Alliance Forces) are created in order to stop the Aliens from destroying the galaxy.

The H.A.F. Backstory

After years past the Aliens decided to make a cannon that will destroy our galaxy. Our people went into panic when they heard it. Because of that, a ship builder was ordered to build ships to stop the Aliens.

The H.A.F. Ships (so far)

The Improving ships

Beholder-Class ships:

Beholder:
Image
The Beholder is the basic mode of all Beholders. It's not fast, and it hasn't got a good defence. It's useful with many Beholders against a small Fleet.

Medusa Beholder:
Image
The Medusa Beholder is normal*slow ship with a good defence. It's powerful as well. Good against a small fleet, bad against powerful Battleships.

Grand Medusa Beholder:
Image
A powerful, invincible Battleship. It's good against everything. It's only bad on very fast ships.

Hesperos-Class ships:

Hesperos:
Image
A small ship with blasters and two beams. It's a Frigate/Destroyer.

Hesperos Blaster:
Image
A Heavy Destroyer with many Blasters. Good for Frigates and Destroyers, and a bit good on Battleships.

Hesperos Grand Blaster:
Image
The most advanced Battleship Cruiser in the H.A.F. Good for everything, but bad for fast Patrol Crafts that attack from behind.

The Normal ships

Patrol Crafts

SS-Star
Image
A small Ship with some Blasters.

SS-Tear
Image
A ship with only 2 beams and 4 point beams.

Destroyers

Minotaur:
Image
A good Frigate/Destroyer. Good on normal-size Fighters, bad on Battleships.

Lion:
Image
A normal Destroyer that is armed with 4 beams and blasters. Good for Patrol Crafts, Frigates and Destroyers. Bad for Heavy Destroyers and Battleships.

IMO needs more boosters.

Neat "stock-esque" construction and expansion on a basic frame, but the over-stacking of weapons detracts from the visual effect.

Also, the descriptions ("bad on fast ships", "good against a small fleet") come off as very childish. You can add much more flavour by rephrasing such bits with, for example "the turrets have trouble tracking fast opponents", or "the ship is most effective against smaller enemy formations".

seconded. look at other ships, they have lot more boosters.

but the hull is cool, and loadout is ok too. get a decent color scheme and you got some really cool ships.

I agree, good looking stock like ships. Keep the boosters but perhaps stack them so it looks like only one? then you can spread out your weapons and get the same effects.

They look a little messy, and also......

THAT'S A HEAVY FIGHTER!? It looks more like some kind of destroyer or frigate to me.

The designs are okay, but the color scheme and cluttering makes them look messy. Clean them up a bit, and you've got something on your hands. Also try colouring the Booster effect.

I suggest you do what Venator says, and change the descriptions so they don't look too childish. You could also try using more than one colour on your ships and tidy them up a little.

Back story is little cheesy, and he descriptions could be better, the ships however, are very good and stylized, except for that first patrol craft, and more colors would be nice, but not totally necessary.
