Why do you think the Moloch was so woefully underpowered? :D

I'd rather go up against one of those than a Deimos or Sobek any day.

Exactly, the Moloch can be pwned by anything above and Aeolus and severely damaged by a Leviathan before it kills it.  The figher bay helps a bit, but how many fighters/bombers can you cram into a ship that size.

well they get 250 in a ship 3 times it's size, so I'd say more than we'd ever see in game.

destroyers are larger than just 3x. Id say maybe 2 or 3 wings in a moloch.

A destroyer's internal volume is 9x that of a corvette, not 3.

my point being destryers have an unrealisticly huge number of fighters in them so it's not un reasonable to assume that you could clame there to be as many fighters in the corvette as you needed for your mission.

Yes real freespace... Destroyers would launch 30 fighters and bomber wings at a time

That rocks in such a way that I have trouble putting into words. So, who's doing the textures (didn't read the whole thread)?

that model was barely in game stable, this one on the other hand is nearly done, turrets work and everything, do note the main engine and all the exsesive detail I added to it.
