I gave it the rather boring name of "Spade cruiser," because I'm bad at coming up with cool names, and the front kind of looks like a shovel.

I wanted to try out the object driven linked turrets, which I don't think were possible in the year old version of BF i was using before. The two turrets on this ship are actually dual particle rifles turned into a barrel made by Arcalane. Speaking of Arcalane, one of his posts enlightened me about the Shockbeamer Overlay weapon, which is what the main laser on the front is (I'm not trying to flatter Arcalane, I just figure it would be stupid not to give credit to an admin). I think it might be a bit overpowered for this size of ship (it does about 80 dmg for 60 frames). Most of the damage comes from a Megabeam, so it doesn't look horribly ugly.
I don't think this ship is anything even remotely special, compared to a lot of ships on the forum, but I wanted some comments so I can know what to do differently next time. I'm going to be pessimistic and assume it's not great.
Some questions: Are the colors alright? Should it be bigger? Should there be more sections? Is the laser overpowered? Should I use SW parts like everyone else seems to? Is my post going on and on and boring you?
