Those wouldn't be how I put it, but that's the basic idea. Yours isn't bad, its just not good either. It doesn't show any progress, anything new. Hamano's design really takes the overall design somewhere new (it actually looks pretty good.  the original just sucked ass). Or to sum it up:

Your's: more of the same.
Hamano's: new and interesting and different.

Winner: Hamano. Fatality. Flawless Victory.

Scrap the clusters and replace them with single beam cannons armed with LRBGreens.

Nah. Then it's just a different-shaped Colossus. And we all know what happens then....

Yeah but the cluster thing is cool, the LRBG is not.

I think the cluster thing is stupid, and spreading the beam cannons across the sides of the hull would be a much better idea. You either have one big beam cannon, or multiple small ones spread out. The cluster beam reduces the cannons' effectiveness by limiting their field of fire. Plus it looks weird and like something from a silly anime.

I dunno, but we can certainly outweigh it with enough posts to the contrary.  Silence Woolie! :D

I still think that if you want a bunch of small beams, you should spread them across the hull. A row of seven slashers instead of a cluster of them could strip away turrets all over the enemy's hull in seconds.

Right, and balancing them across the hull isn't like the Colossus at all. Cause' you know.. heh heh , the Colossus lost to a frontal attack from a Sathanas, heh heh, it's gay.

You haven't had much experience with the Sathanas and Ravana. Put a Colossus behind a Sathanas and deploy some bombers to attack the main beams and the Sath is dog meat. Put an Orion or Hatshepsut behind a Ravana and it's definitely toast, bombers or no bombers.

cool model!!
One question tho, are those SGreens on the frontal turret or...?

maybe put in some Vasudan beams and it'll look a bit more...different lol ;), if a bit silly :)

It's deffiantly an 'Intresting' design.

The only flaw (no fault of yours Hamano) is that, in my experiance, the game will only allow four turrets to fire on a target at once.

Still, great work!
