I always thought the Champion looked like just another capital ship, while the other flagships looked like flagships. That has been emphatically changed. Love the new design.
That looks badass. Are there plans to repurpose the original Champion or will it be removed completely?
I think this is an excellent idea. It looks like just another ship, so it could be used as one, perhaps some sort of light carrier for example, compared to what I would assume the flagships to be, heavy carriers. Or just as a destroyer vessel.
Those wings, will they swing back when you hit the burners? (like a F-14)
They do.
That's something I certainly didn't expect.
You know, all this has had an unexpected side effect. When the forum game first started, I expected it to help rekindle my desire to work on my WoD campaign. But as we've gone on and I've seen more and more put into Wod, and now all this, it's actually having the opposite effect. You see...
NuWOD's fleetpack will certainly be a lot more expansive than the ships of WoD 1, in terms of sheer asset quality, number of ships, and even ship complexity.
I may only have one campaign in me, if that, and I want to be able to play with all the new and improved toys, so I'm probably going to shelve it until the WoD Remake arrives. If this was WoD2, that would be different, but it isn't, and I expect the remake will obsolete WoD, thus it will obsolete my campaign as well.
EDIT: Also, another factor in me wanting to use the new WoD is that it's going to be standalone, so the inexorable march of the SCP won't introduce bugs or imbalances into the campaign.
