War for the Universe - SAR ships

The active stealth system is a real bitch to set up properly, but when it's done...

[R0ni]

( o uo) UUH! I suppose that does not really work on gmae, but even if it does not, that is certainly nice looking. (o. O )? Does it work?

[calvin1211]

Yes it does, and wonderfully so! Amazing really, the things you can do with triggers.
(It's currently visual only and doesn't disable hostile targeting, though the steath ships come with ECM modules installed. I'm also too lazy to disable the ship's weapon firing while cloaked, though that should be easily done.)

[R0ni]

Master. You gotta teach me these triggers some day. ( o3o)

[Necrontyr1998]

That is one sweet stealth-ship!

[Doogie12]

Stealth is cheatses. Mior's particle batteries will rip through your tiny baby ships.

On a semi-related note, I need a wintery-themed name for the stealth EW frigate. Any ideas?

[CryoSleep]

I guess you could name it Blizzard Phantom or just Phantom
Maybe you want something that's bone chilling?

[R0ni]

Winter petal? Tundra? Northwind?

[CryoSleep]

Those aren't good for stealth ship.
Try to think of a word that has predator in it.

[CryoSleep]

White Phantom?

[R0ni]

Well, most of Calvin's ships (if not all) have some element themed name, so adding animal or predatory thingy to it did not sound very true to that concept. You know, Lightning, cyclone, hurricane, torrent, tradewind, stormhammer, etc. All are related to elements of nature. Least.. this is how I have understood Calvin's idea for naming his ships. I could be wrong. (o. O )

[calvin1211]

It's really more on the weather side to fit with the theme naming on the other ships (which all had weathery related stuff as names, though I started diverging into associated nautical phenomena). The SOC vessels have more cold-related names (assault DD in the earlier picture is the Blizzard, stealth BB/mobile HQ is Winter) I'm stuck with the name for the EW/AWACS frigate.

[CryoSleep]

SOC Vessels

Winter (Insert Name Here)

[CryoSleep]

So Skyseer then for the AWACS (Freespace much o.O)
