Title: Something about Phobos
Post by: Ulundel on March 22, 2002, 11:05:22 am

Hi everyone, just downloaded Phobos and fell out of my chair when read the table file. It has many slashes, missile banks and beams. I think it's kinda' funny cause it should be at least three times bigger then to have so many beam turrets and all. Anyway the model's good!!! :cool: :wink: :p

I reduced it's power a while ago, but it still has all the slash beams :D
The Phobos is designed to take on destroyers and win :)

It has twice the amount of turrets than our average destroyer :D

But still with so many turrets the ship should be one big reactor with no humans inside. :jaw:

Boy, :sigh: You really like to exaggerate. Like mounting 20 SBFRED Beams on the Garghant. :doubt:

mmh, on such a large ship as a gargant, I think 1000 BFred would not be exagerated I suppose, actually...

Over the top... meaning big ships, big HP, big guns. Any similarity between this and any other hosted project is purely intentional.

now now, the Phobos would win against any 2360s era destroyer. Since the campaign starts in 2340, it's normal. Thing of the gap between FS and FS2, of course the Colossus could destroy everything and take about zero damage. So? By the time of Inferno, the Colossus is an oversized ugly can with crappy weapons. The destroyers of the twenty-fifth century could kick the Phobos' behind. Usually.

And we won't be using big huge monster ships every mission..although most things probably will be bigger. Everything's been..upscaled..a little bit.

6.25% of our ships are 'super' ships, most of our ships and the most common seen are cruisers and corvettes.

and you can't compare it even *un*intentionnally with OTT, we have no supercapships save for the shivan ones which are used, bah, in a special way that would give the player much pb :)
