I'm sure no one remembers the old ones, but oh well. These are currently the first two fighters designed to wage war against Spoot.

Samael Light Fighter (MK3)

Barbatos Heavy Fighter (MK2)

As you can see, they are extremely small, but I still have some tweaking to do with the stats. More ships are on the way.

Very nice looking. But they're really hard to see.

They're suppose to be. They change color in the sandbox anyway.

XD

My brain's on strike.

I'll just wait for larger ships.
Oh yeah, you can't make them more than 1,000 parts.

I already know this thing isn't going to end up being a Frigate. The bloody bridge says it already.

Well, maybe you should "learn" to contain yourself. See the little grey boxes? They're your friend. Say a frigate is like, 30 of the small grey ones, cool?

I can't tell whether that is an insult. I think it is.

Ship sizes, as always depends on the scaling of your fleet. I don't know how others do it, but you can either do it by Ship A>Ship B, or by weapon loadout. To me, a corvette is a ship designed to bring a single type of weapon into play, such as beam corvettes or missile corvettes, and frigates are just small destroyers, where destroyers carry guns of all types and are solely for frontal damage output.

By size though, it's something like:
Battleship>Cruiser>Destroyer>Frigate>Corvette>Gunship>Fighter

Alter to fit your fleet.

Lolwut?

Anyway. These ships are real nice. They portray that fiery yet slightly stealthy kind of feel to me.

And no, they do not make me want to slit my wrists, you will be happy to know.

Interesting post...
And in U.S. naval terms a Frigate is anything smaller than a Destroyer, a Corvette is anything smaller than a Frigate, a lot of these have been argued about before.

Other naval terms, a Frigate is a ship of any size (Why I don't know

).

I go by; Fighter, Corvette, Frigate, Destroyer, Cruiser. I look at it more like a combination of the Navy and Homeworld, where a cruiser can be something slighty bigger than a frigate, or a leviathan of pain and despair that can take a destroyer group. Whichever comes first.
