Orc class Warcruiser, basically a flak ship, intended to replace the gryphon in my campaign
Polycount = 1020~ish
Perspective

Slight texture mismatch here, but I don't think it's a major problem - certainly not after treconverting the model 6 times to fix the turrets and redo engine maps.
I now expect Venom to produce one of his latest models and thoroughly gub me (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif) (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif) (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

One complaint. Why does the 'chin' come down to block the belly turrets from firing forward?

Venom, I was considering modelling that lovely lady myself to put into Iwar2. You wouldn't want to, perhaps... share the model would you? (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Well, I was planing to convert it for Iwar2 (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) (the main objective to be honest).
A flyable arcadia, that's my dream (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) 3 big *** three barreled AM beams, a huge missile launcher, and a hanger so big even those Maas megafreighter would be jealous (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
If you want to convert it, that would be fine (ah, and the arcadia handles much better than any Iwar cruiser and is much faster, according to what it does in the series and the OAV, you should have to tone done the inertia for it...).

Honestly, I wasn't interested in doing it ACCURATELY. I was just interested in the best looking pirate ship ever built. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif) I'll do the setups, if you can give me the details. *heh*

one thing: it's a 3dsmax mesh model, so I can send it your way as either max file or 3ds file (the 3ds mesh will be exploded in as many objects are there is different UV mapping coordinates, so that means hundreds...). I have it in cob too.

lol oh i got something about the french somewhere
The following advice for American travellers going to France was compiled from information provided by the US State Department, the CIA, the US Chamber of Commerce, the Food and Drug Administration, the Centres for Disease Control and some very expensive spy satellites that the French don't know about. It is intended as a guide for American travellers only.
General Overview
France is a medium-sized foreign country situated in the continent of Europe. It is an important member of the world community, though not nearly as important as it thinks. It is bounded by Germany, Spain, Switzerland and some smaller nations of no particular importance and with not very good shopping.
France is a very old country with many treasures, such as the Louvre and Euro Disney. Among its contributions to western civilization are champagne, Camembert cheese and the guillotine. Although France likes to think of itself as a modern nation, air conditioning is little used and it is next to impossible for Americans to get decent Mexican food. One continuing exasperation for American visitors is that local people insist on speaking in French, though many will speak English if shouted at. Watch your money at all times.
The People
France has a population of 57 million people. 52 million of these drink and smoke (the other 5 million are small children). All French people drive like lunatics, are dangerously oversexed, and have no concept of standing patiently in a queue.
The French people are in general gloomy, temperamental, proud, arrogant, aloof and undisciplined; those are their good points. Most French citizens are Roman Catholic, though you would hardly guess it from their behaviour.
Many people are communists. Men sometimes have girls' names like Marie or Michel and they kiss each other when they meet.
American travellers are advised to travel in groups and wear baseball caps and colourful trousers for easier recognition.
Safety
In general, France is a safe destination, although travellers must be aware that from time to time it is invaded by Germany. Traditionally, the French surrender immediately and, apart from a temporary shortage of Scotch whisky and increased difficulty in getting baseball scores and stock market prices, life for the American visitor generally goes on much as before.
A tunnel connecting France to Britain beneath the English Channel has been opened in recent years to make it easier for the French government to flee to London during future German invasions.
History
France was discovered by Charlemagne in the Dark Ages. Other important historical figures are Louis XIV, the Huguenots, Joan of Arc, Jacques Cousteau and Charles de Gaulle, who was President for many years and is now an airport.
Government
The French form of government is democratic but noisy. Elections are held more or less continuously and always result in a draw. The French love administration so for government purposes the country is divided into regions, departments, districts, municipalities, towns, communes, villages, cafes, and telephone kiosks. Each of these has its own government and elections.
Parliament consists of two chambers, the Upper and Lower, though confusingly they are both on the ground floor, and whose members are either Gaullists or Communists, neither of whom should be trusted by the traveller.
Parliament's principal occupation is setting off atomic bombs in the South Pacific and acting indignant and surprised when other countries complain.
According to the most current American state department intelligence, the President is now someone named Jacques. Further information is not available at this time.
Culture
The French pride themselves on their culture, though it is not easy to see why. All their music sounds the same and they have never made a movie that you would want to watch for anything but the nude scenes.
Cuisine
Let's face it; no matter how much garlic you put on it, a snail is just a slug with a shell on its back. Croissants on the other hand, are excellent, although it is impossible for most Americans to pronounce this word. In general, travellers are advised to stick to cheeseburgers.
Economy
France has a large and diversified economy; second only to Germany's in Europe, which is surprising because the French hardly work at all. If they are not spending four hours dawdling over lunch, they are on strike and blocking the roads with their trucks and tractors.
France's principal exports, in order of importance to the economy, are wine, nuclear weapons, perfume, guided missiles, champagne, guns, grenade launchers, land mines, tanks, attack aircraft, miscellaneous armaments and cheese.
Public Holidays
France has more holidays than any other nation in the world. Among its 361 national holidays are: 197 Saints' days, 37 National Liberation Days, 16 Declaration of Republic Days, 54 Return of Charles de Gaulle in triumph as if he won the war single-handed Days, 18 Napoleon sent into Exile Days, 17 Napoleon Called Back from Exile Days, and 2 " France is Great and the Rest of the World is Rubbish " Days.
Conclusion
France enjoys a rich history, a picturesque and varied landscape, and a temperate climate. In short, it would be a very nice country if it was not inhabited by French people.

The SOC ships are blue - this is a standard GTVA ship.
And I never though of the rear turrets to be honest (but I don't care, because the fov means it isn't a major problem, and the same thing occurs on the Deimos). no fighterbay - it's a cruiser only.
