A relatively new ship constructin company, Arcanity Heavy engineering has the support of the IAP, and has constructed some warships for it. At the end of the UCS war, the Alliance contract with Arcanity Heavy engineering had ended, and the company could return to other designs.

The A-31 and A-51 medium and heavy starfighters are reliable, powerful craft used for patrol and heavy duty combat.

purchase option in full download.

---Venice class ----

A medium sized assault destroyer, the Q-41 Venice class destroyer is AHE's newest product. The ship is relatively fast, and well armed for it's size. Also realtively cheap, it is projected to make it's mark on future starship engineering, especially in weapons. It sports a number of light and heavy disruptors, but also an enhanced drone launcher, that can launch a greater amount of drones in one burst.



--- Athens class ----

A large vessel, built with the latest of technologies, the Athens class is a multi-purpose hull, designed to be fitted with a number of weapons sets.

Athens basic hull design;



S-81 Athens class Battleship

The S-81 Athens battleship is the first adaption of the Athens basic hull.

S-82 Athens class Carrier

The second adaption of the Athens class hull, this S-82 replaces a lot of the S-81's weaponry by a number of launchbays for droid starfighters, and a manufacturing plant for these droids. Armed with an additional amount of drone launchers to provide long range fire support and a PD grid, this ship is an excellent fleet combat support ship.

Jerusalem class:

Z-101 Jerusalem Starfortress





A massive, untakeable veste, the Jerusalem starfortress is AHE's singlemost expensive and powerful weapon. Designed to repel attacks from large fleets, the Jerusalem is equipped with an array of new weapons, such as advanced disruptor weapons, upgraded drone launchers, and more efficient plasma weapons.

Although Jerusalem is a very effective weapon, it is also a very expensive one; the Fortress costs five and a half times the amount one would pay for an S-81 or S-82. The Jerusalem is projected to become the worst selling product from Arcanity Heavy Engineering, and three of these marvellous constructions are already planned. Journalists in several financial magazines have speculated whether the Jerusalem is going to cost AHE more than it is going to bring up, and how much.

Looks groovy, especially with that glowing bit at the front. Can we expect some cool weaponry to go along with that cool hull?

[ArcaneDude]

I would find that a logical conclusion...

[T-002]

Nice blue coloring you got there. It's very catchy. I see you've used different shades of grey, but you might want to put it in a few more places. Also, that part sticking out of the real looks like it wants some extra coloring too. Still, it looks very pretty. Good work.

Now then, I demand the gunz!

[Anty]

The ship is win

looks like someone found the blue aegis colouring trick

but its still a very good ship

[Verminator]

This is definitely a ship that I'll be downloading once it's done.

[ArcaneDude]

Tiny status update, I plan to arm it with downsized (correct?) weapons, and drones. But not Demeters.

Cryptic descriptions, you gotta love 'em.

[RedSarge]

I love how massive this thing is! But I do dislike aegis fields (any aegis field) because they make me lose.

I have question for you Arcanedude.
How many medium sized battlecruisers would one need in order to even attempt to assault a massive, super-heavy battleship like this?

By downsized do you mean tiny weapons you can barely see? Or just weakened weapons?

Smaller ships fail against larger ships, because smaller ships are often built with smaller enemies in mind, rather then larger enemies.

I'm going to go with "lots" as an estimation, though.

[jwa8402]

I would assume he means he is scaling down to weapons to what they would actually be on a ship that size, because unless they are anti-captiol ship weapons they would be small on that beast. I like the design; industrial but almost alien as well. And lots of mounts for weapons, that part looks really cool, rather than sticking them wherever they fit. A carrier using this design style would look interesting, functional with dementors or not.
*edit*
the two aft section 20s, top and bottom(or port and starboard I suppose on the actual ship), can those be moved forward to touch with the other two? Or is that intentional? Just looks like the edges are sticking out in back

[Bad Boy]

Very nice, the blue glowing looks really good (reminds me of Kazuael's new ship). The design itself is excellent, I look forward to seeing it armed.

Also, what happened to the Carthage? You seem to have abandoned it. Did you forget about it or just stop liking it?

[Koross]

Whoa I am loving this ship and it is not even armed! I love the organic shape. Just wondering about the aegised part since it is for aesthetic purposes, would it being boosted instead work?

[Raul]

Booster would probably do the job but none of the sections are structural or even large enough to provide much blockage, not that i expect to get far enough into the hull to find out...

[ArcaneDude]

How many medium sized battlecruisers would one need in order to even attempt to assault a massive, super-heavy battleship like this?

Depends. My estimate is that you'd need at least 30 Hestia's to beat it with it's current loadout, and that's without the main gun.

By scaled down I mean that they're smaller in size, these weapons are actually more powerful than the default.

Also, what happened to the Carthage? You seem to have abandoned it. Did you forget about it or just stop liking it?

The latter. I had no idea where I was gonna go with it, and to be frank, I didn't like the style myself. It was more like a cheap nockoff of Anna's ships than a serious, original ship. That, and I don't have the patience to work on a design for multiple days. If I build a ship, I do it in one streak, not over the course of a week.

Just wondering about the aegised part since it is for aesthetic purposes, would it being boosted instead work?

It could, but you'd either have hideous big blocky Booster modules on the parts themselves, or streaks of blue across the ship. Neither would be in any way accepteable for this design.

functional with dementors or not.

Harry Potter is not part of this game, for your information.

Assuming that you meant "demeters", the drones I mean are actually like this.

Modded missile launchers give you that effect surprisingly well.

EDIT; uploaded the S-81 Athens class Battleship. Give you a screenie soon.
