I think the induction of "LOL" "OMG" and "<3" into the Oxford English Dictionary is a sign of the End Times. Only, instead of a rider on a pale horse, it'll be a gibberish-spewing spastic in a monster truck named "The Dildozer".
One tip I would give to everyone designing a ship would be to look at the other ships already built and see if you can add some of the features on them resulting in a consistent and un-jumbled fleet.
So far, I percieve the four factions designs like so:
EU: Curvy, sleek designs with the highest technology and almst alien looking ships (railguns and tachyons)
UCA: Dense, tough ships with a militaristic style and technology to rival the EU (railguns and blasters)
SU: Big, Blocky, industrial ships with a somewhat low technology (Plasma charges and demeters)
PR: Large, piratical ships with contrasting styles and low technology (machineguns and jury rigged weapons)

That tip is particularly poignant considering that the SU and the PR have almost identical faction colours

Not enough Delta in your life? Have a look at https://twitter.com/Deltabacon1 - I do a fair amount of casting and esports analysis which may appeal to some of you who are that way inclined!
Updated the post. The UCA and EU could both use updated or replaced destroyers, and I changed the post as such. The People's Republic is what you make of it. I suppose a nation of Chinese pirates could make for interesting warfare.
The Soviet Union is fully done, but i'll tell you what, you can make a Soviet Planetary Defense. Should you want to make it, try to have it fit nicely on a large planet and equip it with 150 points.
New UCA Destroyer - Yorktown-Class Bombardment Destroyer.
Sorry FM3, been working on this for a fair few hours now, so I didnt want to not release it. If you want to release one too and let people vote, then if BenEd deems it okay, Im open to that.
EDIT: Now with 100% more doodads, and a recolouring of the deflector effects.
By Danny420Dale, used for the glows. Required to view and use the ship without the '?' sprite. Place in Custom sprites/DDC_Flares. All credit goes to Danny420Dale for the creation of the sprite.

Updated post -- EU still needs fighters. UCA needs an updated destroyer. Soviet Union is done. People's republic needs quite a few...see original post.
