When a Pat-Com and a Defiant love each other..........

[Black Wolf]

I am impressed.

[c914]

Are those rear-mounted turrets on either side of the main engines

every new model posted must have a polycount given as well

umm..aa..alright here is pcout:D :
760 for basic model + 200 for turrets, tralinguate is about 2100 for all

Give it turrets and make it an Convoy Escort ship

That could be second version of ship with 2 aaaf beams, two piracha missle lunchers and 4  other turrets.  Convoy Escort ship could be farster than acap version.

My inspiration of it was drednought from I-War I. I just love dessing of that ship

[c914]

here is another size comparrisons:


i never realize that Seraphim os soo big. Here is second size comparrisons with bigger GTB Taurus or how should it be GTCv Taurus.

what you thing it is good size or eariler was better?

[Ace]

Considering how screwed up the FS naming system is, it's definately not a corvette. Neither is it a frigate like the Iceni (between corvette and destroyer)

Gunship sounds lame... so... Monitor?

F- Fighter
B- Bomber
Mn- Monitor
C- Cruiser
Cv- Corvette
Fg- Frigate (NTF Iceni being an exception as 'NTF' is a flagship designation)
D- Destroyer
J- Juggernaut (GTVA Colossus being an exception as 'GTVA' is a flagship designation)

M- Medical
T- Transport
S- Support
Sg- Sentry Gun
Fr- Freighter
G- Gas Miner
I- Installation
Sc- Science Vessel
A- AWACs

[Annorax]

Gunship sounds better than Monitor, IMO. Although the name does sound good.

GTGs Monitor, anyone?

[c914]

Monitor..are this type of ships had very big fire power and they are slow, something like swiming big gun:doubt:

[aldo_14]

Battleship?  Battlecruiser?  Patrol ship? Cutter?

I like it, incidentally.  I've been meaning to toy around with the concept of largish flyable ships for a while (albeit heavily armed transports rather than dedicated warships)

[mitac]

The White Stars in B5 were classified as "Monitor", as I read several times. So it would fit.

Nice design, btw. I like it much better than your previous projects, C914.

[Nuke]

i got one of theese

[Bobboau]

you and your gatling guns...

[Nuke]

those are 200mm gatling guns with a fire rate of 25rpm and this thing also carries meson torpedoes.
was stealth but that made them impossible to kill.

It will be armed with two beams ( one had half power of SGeen ) two torp lunchers that can cary 16 helios is one bank, one missel luncher for trebs ( 36 ) or pirahas ( 30 ). Ship also posses 4 turrets and hasn't got pirmary af gun.

Does this mean that the beams together add up to 1.5 SGreen in power, or does that mean that each beam is 1.5 SGreen?  Personally, I'd make 'em each about 2 or 3 times as powerful as an Ultra AAA.  Also, it might make it interesting if your beams on this don't pierce shields.

[Edit]
In answering your question, I prefer the larger configuration.
[/Edit]

[c914]

beams together had power of one SGreen i think it is good.

I was thinking about this.

[Jetmech Jr.]

I disagree with it's weaponsry. Giving a ship half the size of a Leviathan somewhat smaller versions of SGreens just seems too much, IMO.

[Pnakotus]

The design is nice, but the whole thing is as un-Freespace as you can get.  Its overgunned, its propbably far too fast and manuveurable (since it should be much worse than an Ursa) and its a big fat sitting target for trebs.

I guess it COULD work if you increased the engines and set the fire axis of the beams to be very narrow, so it had to fight like Defiant.  However, it would still get ****kicked by trebs, so I'm not sure what the role is here.  And how many hp can it possibly have?  Less than 8000, thats for sure.

Well if they don't, they can toast all fighters and bombers instantly. Give it a shield factor of something like 0.03 as well so using the beams against fighters isn't a good option... of course you'll have to technobabble your way out of explaining why beams that can rape capships can't shoot through shields when even SAAA-Weak can

[Knight Templar]

I think it'd be l33t if you ditched the beams, made it a little smaller, and called it an uber bomber. But that's just me.

[Grimloq]

Super-Heavy-Assault Bomber (SB, HB, AB, respecitvly)

aldo:

battleship : self sustaining, similar to hecate, but never needs resupplying
battlecruiser : flexible, usually is outfitted for a specific task, but is easy to change that task
patrol ship : flak-monkey quick smaller-than-a-cruiser ship

then again, those are the rules that _I_ go by.

[edit] w00t! im a bahka now!

[Beowulf]

Very cool.
