Title: Icelus destroyer
Post by: CT27 on December 22, 2015, 08:11:50 pm
I was glad to hear the Warlock class carrier will at least have a small part in Inferno:  Nostos.

Another ship I was curious about was the GTD Icelus destroyer class.  Will that ship be in Nostos?

Also, from what I remember, the Icelus was supposed to basically be an upgraded Hecate (with better capital combat capabilities) right?

Yes, it will be in Nostos.

Exact design lineage I'm not certain on, though.

When i originally made the original model all those years ago, i intended it to be more warship than carrier, the next generation hecate vessel.

Basicly Icelus from Nostos is very similar to original from INFR1 in terms of firepower. It has the same main weapon configuration, but smaller beams were replaced by heavy plasma cannons.

Does GTA have any light-carrier destroyer/carrier? If both Boreas and Icelus are warship oriented and there is only two Warlocks then it seems they are short on hangars.

Leaneus was dropped as far as I remember. It wasn't actually good looking :P. Icelus and a few remaining Hecate class destroyers perform a role of carriers, along with Warlock.
