Title: HC Defiler
Post by: TrashMan on March 02, 2007, 03:35:41 pm

Sat at my desk today and didn't feel like working on the hybrid destroyer or FREDing, so I whipped this up:

Version 1 is now available at Hades-Combine.

Only 2 LODs nad no debris for now.. Will update the file once I add them :D

Looks like a cross between a Mentu and an Aten.

Heavy Cruiser?

I agree with Raven - good, except for the bottom fin :)

Hammer of Light Cruiser..

Bottom fin is a separate object (actually a beam turret)

Makes sense. They'd have a buncha Atens sitting around (and while they held Altair, facilities to upgrade/produce more). Good upgrade!  :nod:

Dont get me wrong, I dont dislike the idea of having a fin there. Its just the way it is atm. If it was a bit more "fat" at the junction point with the main body, it would look much better imo
Right now it looks like a wall coming out of the bottom part of the ship :\

Really cool cruiser, what are its weapons?

Title: Re: HC Defiler

1 beam cannon
1 (multi-part) single-barreled turret with a Vasudan Huge Turret (960 dmg)
14  turrets - mostlyvasudan turrets and some /AAAF/Flak

Just one beam cannon? How strong is it?

I think I set it as a SVas...or was it MVas (hmm.. I don't recall putting hte medium vasudan beam in the file..yikes..)

Methinks it was set to do 600-700 damage (as a comparison the SVas does 300, the BVas does 1000)

Nice ship. But I would remove the claw on the bottom, it's not very vasudan style IMO

Good a place as any to put the beam though, IMO.

Looks kinda out of place if you want to use it for a pre-beam era though.  Besides, having beams on the end of spikes is just too Shivan... then again, if this is an HOL ship, I can conceive them trying to emulate the Shivans.
