Title: Smaller ships with hangar?
Post by: SF-Junky on October 23, 2007, 12:50:43 pm: For one of my future campaign projects I need a corvette sized ship with a hangar. Vasudan design is prefered, but terran is okay, too. I've been searching for this for a while now and found nothing that matches my demands. This Karuna class (http://sebastian.ramrod-network.de/Freespace/images/Karuna_shot.jpg) from the Blue Planet campaign is really good, but it looks so modern. What I need is some predecessor to the Typhon (respectively Orion) class. Big enough to house 8-10 wings, but too small to take on modern destroyers like the Hecate.

Ops, sorry, just saw it myself. My most subservient apologies.

As Colecampbell says, INF R1 has a ship called the Bastet which might fit the bill. Too small to be a proper destroyer (~1.2km IIRC) but it has fighterbays and doesn't look all that new.

(edit: i was wrong, it's 1.4km)

You also could make the Udjat work.

Hey, I said I want a ship, not a flying block littered with turrets. ;) The Bastet, hm? It's not in my Inferno release, but I've already heard of that ship. Will take a look around for it...

It's not in R1, it was supposed to be a bonus ship in INFA, but it never got relased.

It is.

Post by: colecampbell666 on October 24, 2007, 01:25:49 pm: Oops...Wrong ship. Or is a revamped Bastet in INFA?
Title: Re: Smaller ships with hangar?
Post by: Snail on October 24, 2007, 01:31:28 pm: The old Bastet is in INFR1 as the VCI's flagship, and a revamped Bastet is in INFASA.

Post by: S-99 on October 24, 2007, 06:57:44 pm: LOl, you could screw the terran or vasudan design preference in favor of a corvette that already has a fighter bay which is a shivan corvette.

I never saw that. I guess I never looked through Inferno's tables. Thanks.
