The yet unnamed fleet.

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!

Not much backstory yet. Will come up with that later on.

1 Double fulcan
3 light kinetic guns
3 defensive guns
1 launcher bay


Image
Heavy fighter.
1 Fulcan

Image
Rocket Artillery frigate.
2 Rocket pods(fold out)
1 Kinetic missile launcer(concealed)
1 Heavy defensive gun


Image
Flak frigate.
1 Heavy frag cannon
2 light kinetic guns
2 defensive guns


Image
Battleship.
1 Super heavy electronic discharger
3 doublebarreled heavy kinetic cannons
4 defensive guns


Image
Bomber
1 Heavy cannon
1 defensive gun


Image
Anti-Capitol Corvette
2 doublebarreled kinetic cannons
2 defensive guns


Will be making some cruisers/destroyers/assault craft soon.

hooray for asymmetry!

fighter also looks interesting, but a bit too blocky for my tastes

in your battleship I noticed that there were a lot of section repeating, and to most of the senior members that seems to be bad

Thank, the asymmetry is necesarry for this ship to look good. And it makes a lot of sense.

The battleship isn't really repadative, it's just that the cannon uses only 2 differant sprites but these are made to "chain" them into a long shape so this shouldn't be a problem.
I am btw not really fond of the armament of the battleship. It has a complete lack of anti-fighter weapons.

EDIT: The red is a teamcolour. So don't say it looks like roadkill again.

[Just_MHO]Rather nice, although it would be better to use photobuckets or imageshacks. clicking every ship is nervous...[/Just_MHO]
Check spelling(Fulcan is a LoL, but still...)
The Carrier is the best of the ships. Maybe you should try to make most ships asymmetric? You seem to make asymmetric ones much better.
Keep up adding ships, maybe it will turn out into a nice flee. :roll: Time will tell...
I don't give a damn.

Some questiona to all of you:
Should I remove the red turret thingies on the carrier?(MG would stay.)
Is the fighter any good?
Should I ad MGs to the battleship? Or leave it as is so it needs anti-fighter support.
Is the colourscheme any good?
Any ideas for the backstory? (Names/etc.)


Oh and yes I know the ThrusterEX is still showing on the flak frigate.

Yes, they're too dark and seem deceptively unimportant as a result.
Is the fighter any good?
Yes, while it has that cobbled together look I think it suits the whole fleet very fine as being a straightforward pair of (massive) engines, cockpit and gun (Vulcan, btw) topped off by a few stabilizers.
Should I ad MGs to the battleship? Or leave it as is so it needs anti-fighter support.
Up to you, does it look like it'll become over-armed if you do?
Is the colourscheme any good?
No, the red is a too dark. It part of problem #1 with the machineguns.
The grays are fine, so far. But you might want to use a few more shades of gray to further enhance the sense of depth.
Realism, seriously? It's a space ship game. Realism was thrown out the window a long time ago.
