Title: New ship...
Post by: Unknown Target on July 13, 2002, 11:04:44 am
The UTRP Medic.

Terran Command recognised the need for a new class of repair ship, as the old UTRP Ansible-class was rapidly showing it's age. It put forth a design request for a new ship that could instigate speedy repairs, while still having enough speed to get away from the area fast enough to avoid enemy fire. It is outfitted with four repair beams, each on an individually moveable arm. Due to the incredible amount of work required to run this machine, a second cockpit was installed, hanging below the pilot's. The second is in command of the left side and bottom, while the actual pulot is in command of the right side and top. While normally running away from a battle, due to the fact that they have no inherent weapons, a few pilots have been known to increse almost all of their weapon energy to their weapons, thus turning their repair beams into minimal-damage weapon systems. Thus, small, unofficial squadrons have been formed among the pilots, the most famous of these being the "Lugnuts". During the Battle for Neptune, a small contingent of these pilots mounted a daring raid on an enemy capital ship. Knocking out it's weapon systems with their lasers, they enabled the defending forces to d
estroy the ship. Unfortunately, however, their efforts were in vain, as the OVP eventually overran their position.

Here ya go, what do you think?

It looks good, but more like a drone than a ship, methinks. And what's the polycont on that? It looks fairly detailed...

And you told me you`d forgotten how to model! :jaw:

That's a thing of beauty UT. Look forwards to adding a few to my Mind Games missions too :)
