Thats the Ticonderaga if im not wrong. Its a destroyer (or Corvette) based on the Fenris I think, was released quite a while back.

Damn. I really, really need to learn how to Render stuff in TS....

It's must be the predecessor of the Fenris.

Yeah, the foreground ship is the Ticonderoga.  Unfortunately for us, Hamano released it publicly, so it's not exclusively ours anymore. :(

The background ship is new, though.  Something aldo made for us. ;)

 
It's using some of the GTD Orion texutes, I think.

Uh-huh.

Probably could be improved a lot, that one tho.  Must be pretty old by now.

  • Already told you people too much!
I'm guessing (since I never did any background on the ship)  that was the cruiser they used before splitting it into two smaller vessels (Fenris and Leviathan) ?

Even the Collossus should be scared of a swarm of kamikaze Anubis :)

But they don't work as kamikaze's all the time.  They're much scarier when there's a 50:1 ratio of Anubis' vs. Apollos.

The Anubis' main strenght is its cheapness. You can encounter them in mass quantities. The Anubis is the TIE Fighter for FreeSpace.

Let's add to the fact that neither side is shielded, and things get much, much nastier for the hapless Apollo wing that finds itself in swarm conditions.

I would rather be curious what the another ship is. Looks like to be a reskinned Poseidon.
