Are there any out there? I have some ideas for a mission that could use one. The only one I could find was just a reskinned Hatshepsut.

Haven't heard of any that is in use besides from inferno, and i don't even know if they had capships.

Persoanlly, I didn't care for the Kato and Zakros... They seemed too contrived. I don't think that was the style that the ancients would have had from looking at the Knossos...

But then, I'm always the dissenter voice on most things. >..>

Inferno R1 has an entire ancient fleet, destroyer, jugg, carrier, everything.

I think they look pretty good, although they are too similar to some Shivan ships. (the Phaistos and Kato look like the Moloch and Astaroth respectively)

I downloaded that VP. Don't really like the looks of that one. I'll take a look at the other stuff in here; there might be something else that will work.

Well, you could try to pry the R1.5 version out of Woo, though IMO the R1.5 ships so far seen look like crap.

Well just saying 'crap' isn't much of an opinion.

  • huh?.. Who?.. hey you kids, git off me lawn!
posting what you thought wrong with something is a more constructive method of saying something is 'crap", it is, however, infintely more helpful than saying "it's crap"

me, i'm more apathetic to the design, 'cuz bar the knossos portal, there's only one source to grab the ancient stylings from, and to me, there's not enough diversity to draw a full utter conclusion on what the "definitive ancient vessel" looks like, that said, this is where artistic flair comes into it, and you haveta think that the people who created the ancient vessels used a lot of imagination to come up with a diverse fleet of warships.

There are a few other ships in the Inferno pack that look quite nice to me (I especially like that Malia), but aren't really the size I want. I'll give them a try and see how they look in the game.

there is always the Tehra, funny story with that thing, it was an anchent destoyer that was then reskined into a vasudan jugernaught (renamed) then reskined back into anchent (renamed into something else) it's in inferno (I think), it's the big blue giant squid looking thng.
