Title: Pudgy Leviathan (split from "Armored Leviathan Release")
Post by: Mobius on July 21, 2010, 11:42:41 am: Original thread (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=70479.msg1393335#msg1393335)

How about this?

Front and rear look very heavily armored, but the center really doesn't.

Post by: Droid803 on July 21, 2010, 11:58:53 am: The INFASA Leviathan looks like a completely different class, or at least a significant reworking (Leviathan mk2?)
Not to mention that the original docking rings are gone, which means it'd never work as a replacement, but hey, I like it its cool - it's just not really a Leviathan per-se.

Exact same, but placed slightly differently.

Ugh, this thing is hideous.

Post by: Angelus on July 21, 2010, 07:18:14 pm: I like it, has this MkII look.
The middle section needs more love, though.

The front could use a redoing since it's just the bottom half mirrored up and put on the sies.

Post by: Zacam on July 22, 2010, 08:36:30 am: Unless there is a serious attempt towards re-doing the Fenris/Levy (of which there are plenty of untouched ships to deal with), this whole topic probably belongs in Modding.

Post by: SpardaSon21 on July 22, 2010, 12:57:31 pm: Looks like you replaced the Fenris' Standard Command section with a Hammerhead Command section. Those typically increase maneuverability, not decrease it. :p

i thought they reduced manoeuvrability but increased the number of weapons you can mount on the command section

Nope, the Hammerhead adds guns, armor, and additional maneuvering thrusters. There's no excuse to use anything but one of those on combat ships once you get Waldoes and until you get Battlebridges.

No, it should go straight to the Inferno board. Can this be done, please?

EDIT: Thanks!
