Hey, great concept!

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

The Vasudans have needed a new transport for ages. The Isis is barely fighter size...how many men (?) will that carry?

BTW, Nice work.

Dunno... at the mo it's corvette size, cos that's what it started as  - probably end up around 300-400m long

Isn't the Apis also used as the name of one of the new Vasudan fighters in Inferno? If so, you've got a name battle going on.

So, I'd like to provide a replacement name.

Same name as the transport in the mission where the Iceni dies. I thought it would be a waste of a good name just to leave it as that one transport (which wasn't even Vasudan).

For a diplomatic transport? By it's nature, a diplomatic transport would be designed to carry one person, a diplomat. You don't really need 400m for one person, even with his assorted enterage.

Personally, I'd make it about 200m, bigger than an Argo, but smaller than a cruiser.

It's your project though.

Remember, this is equivalent to airforce 1....

I'll decide for good later (heehee) on size & name if need be

We do have a Vasudan fighter named Apis, but I'm not bothered if Aldo keeps the name

Yeah! I like that!  

Yeah, the Vasudans do need a larger transport, though I think maybe it should be around the size of the Argo. So that both species have large and small transports.

But then again I also think that the Vasudans should also have a Triton-sized freighter and TC-TRI-sized cargo. You know, just to make things fair between the two species.

Or somthing like that, I think that the Vasudans need a big trasport. There isn't alot of those in FS, or FS2 for that matter, but thats just me thots.
