Nope. I couldn't be bothered adding animation to them.

I might do it eventually, but if I do then I'd need to do it to all the bits on this one as well, and that'd just be a hassle.
Triumvirate 02 - CREATION
Image
Size: 351.54
Hull: 2700
Speed: 0.67
Turning: 0.27
Accel: 0.01
AI: Normal
Armament:
4x Twin Heavy Red Lasers
8x Light Red Lasers
Description: The Triumvirate are not warships. They are the Gods and Leaders of the Ariadne Industrial Machina, their word both law and scripture. They bear enough fire-power to defend themselves until assistance arrives, if need requires, but their primary purpose is to lead their people. Triumvirate 02 is named after one of the three Virtues of the Cretians, Creation, and it represents this virtue by being a huge mobile shipyard, capable and eager to repair and create new vessels on a routine basis. She is lightly armed and abhors the use of weapons, disinclined to use what few she has unless the situation is absolutely dire. Her worshippers on occasion have found themselves wishing she were more willing to act in her own defence, but understand that destructive acts are antithetical to her.

That is a lot of engines. I really like the internal shipyard bit.
EDIT EXPRESSING EMOTIONS: Extreme engine extent eminently egregariously exccessive.

I'm not sure how you've done it Anna. Not only do the last couple of ships you've posted look awesome, they've also somehow made all the other AIM ships look even better.

It's not a jugganaught, it's a god made of metal, guns and awesomeness.

Fixed the Scarlet Serenity to only have 3 variants and fit better with the rest of the faction ships.

Also finished the last Triumvirate ship, though it won't truly be finished until STARSTRUCK releases the new version of BSF he's working on.
Triumvirate 03 - LOYALTY
Image
Size: 341.23
Hull: 3000
Speed: 0.51
Turning: 0.22
Accel: 0.01
AI: Normal
Armament:
6x Twin Heavy Red Lasers
8x Light Red Lasers
4x High-Powered Point Defence Beams
Description: The Triumvirate are not warships. They are the Gods and Leaders of the Ariadne Industrial Machina, their word both law and scripture. They bear enough fire-power to defend themselves until assistance arrives, if need requires, but their primary purpose is to lead their people. Triumvirate 03 is named after one of the three Virtues of the Cretians, Loyalty, and it represents this virtue by being vigilant in the active defence of Ariadnian stations and vessels, defending them with advanced shielding systems and point defence beams. Loyalty lacks the fire that Courage has, but is considered by many Ariadnians to be the most faithful of the Triumvirate, and indeed, she represents the virtue that Ariadnians value the most highly.
EDIT: Also made this.
Asclepius-class Space Station
Image
Size: 423.41
Hull: 1800
Speed: 0.1
Turning: 0
Accel: 0
AI: Normal
Armament:
2x High-Powered Point Defence Beams
Description: The Asclepius-class Space Station is a common sight in Ariadnian space, with the huge space stations serving as homes for millions of Ariadnians, and act as general space hubs for refuelling and resupplying. Their structure is also dominated by a huge Shipyard, capable of housing and constructing anything from a Gunship to a Vermillion Vengeance-class Battleship.

I am in love with your station. It's just beautiful and perfect in every sense.

Glad you like. :D

Something else new, because I'm on a roll today.
Burgundy Brigand-class Cruiser
Image
Size: 105.44 -> 105.65
Hull: 550
Speed: 1.3
Turning: 0.52
Accel: 0.04
AI: Normal
Armament:
2x Twin Heavy Red Lasers
4x Twin Heavy Artillery Red Lasers (Experimental)
1x Heavy Artillery Red Beam (Experimental)
Description: The Burgundy Brigand is unique for an Ariadnian vessel. Focused on long-range, high powered artillery weapons. Not as fast as one might expect an Ariadnian vessel of this side to be, it focuses all its energy in trying to remain at long range and pound at larger, slower ships with its artillery weapons. Sadly for the Ariadnians, even these experimental Artillery weapons are still woefully short range compared to the lasers on an SAR vessel.

What do you use to get these numbers for their statistics? I have the habit of making mine end in 5 or 0. If it is simple enough, I will adopt it.

Another new ship. This one is kinda special.
Sanguine Sword-class Beam Cruiser
Image
Size: 123 -> 124.74
Hull: 400
Speed: 0.95
Turning: 0.90
Accel: 0.02
AI: Normal
Armament:
4x Super-Heavy Red Lasers
1x MINOS Beam (Experimental)
Description: The Sanguine Sword is the philosophy of the Burgandy Brigand taken to the next level, trading in all but the bare minimum amount of armour and engine power for an intensely powerful and unique experimental beam weapon. It carries four single-shot Super-Heavy red lasers, but relies largely on its forward cannon for offence. Thanks to its weak hull and slow speed, this ship is vulnerable to being flanked, particularly by smaller, faster vessels, which have little difficulty penetrating its hull.

Hm. I thought this one would get more feedback.
