As you brought up the topic... yea, that looks kind of weird... but somehow it skipped my watchful eye

It will be changed to something, i like the SR<ship class> designation.

[procdrone]

Well, there was no posts in a while, so I'll just go with the *Ships Showcase*!

This time, we get to see something GTVA made, and namely: GTD Titan



After the Second Shivan incursion, all Alliance engineers agreed that the Hecate failed as a heavy line combatant, and whenever it found itself in direct combat with Shivan forces, it was failing to perform.

That is why GTVA needed a new weapon to face any further Shivan threats, and their joint en-devour developed the Titan.

Titan is a top of the notch ships ever developed by GTVA to date, dwarfing all and every Capella-era ships. While able to face shivan destroyers toe to toe, it is still valued carrier within the fleet, surpassing even a Hecate's in that field.

Dude, catch me on GG or AQQ. We must do something with that ugly planet

[NeonShivan]

Despite it being ugly the Titan somehow makes that ugly duckling shine...a little bit.

[Lorric]

I really like that planet...

[procdrone]

I feel like sharing with you some of my recent advancements into VM, so here it is. New asset just loaded in and ready to go (almost)





And our lovely GTD Archangel in battle!

[Droid803]

You might want to look into setting initial turret positions for the Archangel. Looks a wee bit silly with all the guns pointing up

[procdrone]

ready to go (almost)

That was my meaning, the ship isn't yet entirely finished... there are some strange things I am trying to repair, and as for that, Ill see about those turrets.

[Nyctaeus]

Ehh... Pass this to me, when I get some time free from Mystery Project. I may even finish Archangel Mk. 3. It's always ending this way .

Since you're taking on a system trying to secede, this plotline kind of reminds me of "Luyten Civil War".  (Note:  I'm in no way saying you're ripping them off.  Also, LCW was a great campaign so I mean this as a compliment).


I really look forward to playing this some day.  Hypothetically do you think we could see a late 2014 or early 2015 release perhaps?

[procdrone]

It is possible to release initial mod within 2014.

Both campaigns share only the system where the rebellion is happening. That's all I can say

Oh man, you're SOOOOOOOOO wrong there. LCW was at the VERY VERY beginning of my mod (Laramis Civil War), but after suggestions as is this so similar to Luyten Civil War, I've changed it all. And only, only similiarity goes for Laramis i think... (In LCW, first briefing, Fleet stationed at Laramis was to fake an attack, in order to draw their forces off the node to... Wolf? This or another way. I don't remember now.) And my campaign starts in Laramis, Laramis.

I thought that all, ALL similarities were... taken away by now. Please tell me what seems so that similar, and we will work it out.

[CT27]

I think the campaign looks great, no need to slow down work or push back a release date just to work on reducing perceived 'similarities'.


Also, this Archangel looks good.  Is it bigger than standard GTVA destroyers (maybe bring back the superdestroyer designation)?

[NeonShivan]

If I recall, the Archangel is almost Colossus scale in terms of size.

[procdrone]

Correct. Archangel is bigger then any destroyer. Just look at the thing in comparison to that modified destroyer in a screens just few posts above.

[CT27]

So it's kind of the new flagship of the GTVA or something?

[NeonShivan]

With that said, may I suggest classifying it as a Dreadnought with the GTDn prefix?

Sounds like a good idea.

I'm getting a Wing Commander feel from that ship.

Must be the deck guns.
