This baby needs to be HTLed and released. Any takers? ;)

:wtf: Whatever happened to giving it to TVWP?
-
At the rate it's getting completed currently, it'd be finished in about... well, I can't count that high. It's not going anywhere, Goob. I'm the wrong person to depend on to bring this model to completion. Waiting for me to finish it means you'd never get anything beyond what you have now. If someone else takes it on, the chances of it getting finished increase by an infinite amount. Of course, if you have someone on the TVWP team who can do it, then that's the best of both worlds for you. ;)

Why is this in the FSUP forum? :p This doesn't make the canon campaign look any better. ;)

*splutters* Ap..... I.... uh..... buh....
I knew there was something I was missing.

Because it's being used in BWO :p
-
Guys, we can always share models. I mean, the more campaigns they're used in, the better, right?

Why would a ship like that be in TVWP? Its clearly a post-Capellan-era Vasudan design, succeeding the Hat. It definitely doesn't look Pre-FS1.
-
Yeah... it would seem so...
-
It looks like it could make a Typhon-esque carrier, given the right textures.
-
/me is the staunchest opposition to 90% of what they try to consider Vasudan in the TVWP databanks.

Raa should make points and give arguments for making the models more Vasudan then

Someone here is a comedic mundane :p
In all seriousness, Raa's right. It doesn't fit with the design, during the V-T war. Also carrier tactics being used in the war doesn't quite fit with the design of the capships as "plasma lobbers." Subsystem disrupting is important, but mainly for support actions. The main war is moving in big gun platforms (Orions, Fenrises) and lobbing Harbingers to glass the surface of hardened ground targets.
An actual move from generalist to specialist ship design seems more in line for post-FS2.
-
Wow. Good looking ship. If there's a pre-HTL version out, somebody send it to me, please. If not, I'll just wait for the release. As a model collector, Vasudan models were always some of my favorites. :)

I'm actually quite serious. Tell me, how many new models pop up on these boards that you never see in a campaign? Probably most of them. The really nice ones sit on hard drives collecting dust while the campaigns they were supposed to be used for fold up and die. Then a new campaign starts and they start making models instead of missions and the cycle begins again. It's actually kind of sad. We should be sharing models around. Sure, they'll have different names for each campaign vs the name the creator gave it, but as long as proper credit is given, who cares? Let us share the wealth people.

Actually, we went the other way, specialist ships originally (carriers, battleships, etc) giving way to the destroyers due to a variety reasons during the war. A Vasudan carrier is almost required since they didn't have a destroyer in the early days of the war, and not one worth it's salt until the Typhon. A few modified textures, and it would fit in quite well and as long as it isn't the size of an Orion, it should work out fine.

It seems I have a powerful ally in these forums. Eishtmo, we should move to start a union. Or our own branch on the forums. Vintage model collectors unite!! :D :D :D

I made it to be around 1.2km. I think... :nervous:
-
Personally I just don't like the design at all. As an individual ship, it's fine, but as a Vasudan ship, nuh-uh. I hate multiple shafts connecting regions. No ship is like that. The Hatshepsut, even, only has the one. :/
-
Well, Raa, what do you consider to be Vasudan as far as fan made ships go? Granted, I can see where you disapprove of some, like this one, the GVCa Tanen (I kinda like it, but not Vasudan enough), and the GVD Bastet (ugly, ugly ship). But what specific examples can you think of? I can think of one: GVC Mafdat.
-
I've not kept up to date with the models, to be honest. But almost all that I have seen lack, IMO.
-
The GVF Seker was good (I think it was Nukes)
-
I don't know names. Have a pic?

Not to be insulting or anything but Ace is pointing out that the initial comment about the model being in BWO (and thus somehow considered exclusively) was a sarcastic joke that you completely missed...now twice. Lighten up man :)
I asked Sandwich for permission to use the Amaunet many years ago...at which point it was slated to be in several campaigns. This ship is still in BWO in several missions and I think it'd certainly be nice to have it HT&Lized at some point because of its widespread appeal and use.

Okay, that might be a bit big.

Um, I didn't know it was part of BWO. Didn't even see the comment pointing out this fact.
-
Yeah, sure, I'll do it over Xmas, since you won't stop bugging me about it... :rolleyes:

Its part of several campaigns to my knowledge :)
Not to worry.
