Update 2 Complete!!
Added Bulky Trader to the List, And a bunch of refits/redues on the ships I have. They also include the .sb2 files in them, so have fun

. Theres no picture for BT 2 or ASv2 Refit because the changes are minor. Now All we need is SM3 then I can work on some bigger ships(Like the Zetsaber and... well... a 2nd ship

).

These are actually very nice designs. They're small and very utilitarian, and while the weapons are fairly cramped together in some cases, they look like they're supposed to be there. I really like the Microbe. That thing looks sweet.

Thanks.
Best part is that I barely modified the weapons, Just the railguns/pulsar on the Tank, the puslar on the microbe, and the Megalasers on the tank and the satellite(mostly range, up dmg by 1 point).

Look very unique and cool, especially microbe! Thumbs up on that one. For its loadout, I'd suggest replacing some of the more defensive modules with more offensive ones.

The Microbe is awesome. Actually I think the visible skeleton really brings out the special look.

I actually would of hidden the skeleton lines. but I didn't know how. In fact I don't know any of the hidden key commands in ShipMaker.

Love the Microbe! It's really nice looking. I think their great looking little ships, very interesting. You Anti-Satellites look great, and I like the second one a lot.

Pressing P does the trick.

Thanks, keep that in mind.

I didn't think the microbe was gonna be so popular.

I was Testing out my ships and I was thinking of doing these fixes:
Microbe:

More Demeters? either more D.Pods (2, to be exact) or ditch the pulse guns for Demeters.
Drop the star count on the pulser.

A.S. v2:

Fix Range/Reload/Hp/Deviation/Arc on Minibeam. I thought the custom stats on it was horrific.

Cloud Tank:

Ditch Tachyon Weapons. I don't think they suit it.
Up the Hp on the Rail Guns. There always the first to go, next to the tachyons.
More Missiles, and improve the tracking on all of them.
Machine Gun (Duh!)
Don't know whether or not to fix the megabeam or ditch it all together

What do you guys think?
