Title: Lucifer debree ship?
Post by: boewolf on May 18, 2004, 03:03:26 am

I was wondering if anyone has made a Terran ship using Lucifer parts?

Besides, the Lucifer was destroyed on the Earth side of the Jump Node, so it would be kind of hard to get the bits :(

Id' be surprised if there were enough viable pieces left over for the EA to work with.

Have you seen the Fs1 cutscenes, It look like there was to me

Exactly. The Lucifer pretty much broke in two in the cutscene with the first half with the flux cannons pretty much remaining intact.

Now you can say that they blew up off screen or you can say they didn't in which case it's fairly likely that the GTA would have harvested them :)

heh, of course I've seen the cutscenes.  That kind of goes without saying.

Yeah, the Lucifer was ripped in half by the explosion, but whatever was leftover disintegrated almost entirely by the time the camera panned behind the ships that blew it up, is all I was saying.

Of cousre, it's kind of a moot point seeing as Earth had all the technological data we'd already gathered during the war....just negated my own argument.  yay.

Theres a lot of Lucifer debris left.

More than enough to work with.

By memory we don't acctualy see how badly the Lucifer was destroyed.  After all only its reacters are destroyed and much of the hull could have been left intact along with most of the electronics.  But anyway here is what i have been playing with

I like the second one better.  

I know its not very high poly but i am also going to make one in FS1 format just for the fun of it all.

Combining the hulls of two ships to express that the military would use the debris to make hybrid technology is bad.

Try an entirely new ship that just looks sleek, or actually looks like a genuine cross between Shivan and Terran parts.

I don't know. There is a lot of comedy value in a terran ship with a pair of flux cannons bolted onto it. Well at least until they fire it :D

Reminds me of Anteus from Hostile Waters or the Terran Destroyer in WC:Prophecy.

What about Galemp's collection of clunker ships?

I see that as the next evolution EA Orion but PLEASE dump those arms!!! To me they are only a Shivan esthetic and I'm sure some engineer on the project would point that out as "Bloody useless". (No offense)...

Your request Star Dragon.  No offence taken.
