ui like the design.. but you need to get creative with the textures.. too much of the same texture

You know we need?  We need a texture bank....some more of the 'heavy armor' kind of textures like the one on the Phobos would be nice.  So we can get some variety but still have the armor look.

Kazan, tell Dark that...    

remember that, ingame, coloured lighting will hide a large amount of the simlar textures under a swath of blue or green or sumin

Looks damn sweet!

[IceFire]

I disagree about the textures.  Its a very hard very militaristic look too it.  Its also sort of chrome plated looking...very nice.

[Nico]

it would need more contrast with the lights, maybe?

This is a perfect revision of the Deimos... a real corvette!

[IceFire]

A Deimos is not a ship to be trifled with.   of people underestimate the amount of damage it can do to something.

[Griffon UK]

the only problem with the Deimos is the same as the Orion...  they cause massive damage, but fall to bombers because of their hopelessly defended underbellies...

Notic the LRM launchers & the heavy flak cannons underneath...

btw, i think im gonna ask for the Torpedo launchers to have a 5^o field of fire at best...  otherwise they will be downing fighters with Helios'

Can't do that, Helios have 'Huge' tag.  You can use them, but the computer won't.

[Griffon UK]

oh right...  you mean against fighters  

it was a hypothetical situation

Even so it would have to be at point-blank as the Helios is so slow and un-maneuverable... damn funny though

I did it to a rearming ship once....it was great!

I launched my Harbinger at my support ship after I finished the Shivan gauntlet in FS1. That was fun.

That was my gole in the origional design. I must say that Dark did an excelent job modeling it.
