The missile pod is great, but the weapons on the tips don't fit the brakiri style (at least the little bit we know of brakiri design from the Avioki) IMO.

[Trivial Psychic]

Mav, what if you deleted the ventral wing-tip gun, and moved those on the other wingtips, about the same distance towards the center as the missile pod is?

[I_E_Maverick]

i will try that and show some pics later

[I_E_Maverick]

ok, here is the new version of the falkosi
if the pic doesnt show up dont bother, it is new server space and they seem to have some problems. i hope this will get better in a short time

[Trivial Psychic]

Link Fixed.  It seems that your host is case-sensitive where capitals are concerned.  I just changed the "M" in "Mav" to lowercase.

[I_E_Maverick]

thanks for the tip, that was the problem it seems

[Prophet]

Yes! Yes! That is much better!

Only one minor detail... The wing guns look like they are just glued in to the wings. "Fatten" the wings just a little bit where the barrels are. So they look like there is a weapon in there...

Other than that, I'm like it.

[Trivial Psychic]

So, basically add a sheath over part of each gun barrell and have it extend back over and under the wing?

[Prophet]

Yeah.. That could work too...

[I_E_Maverick]

i will try that.
and btw, i started texturing the jadul station:

[I_E_Maverick]

update on the jadul. it is nearly finished, just the middle section needs some details:

[Prophet]

What kind of armament are we having on todays model?

[I_E_Maverick]

not many thoughts about that so far. triv suggested some beam weapons. there are definatly some big multipart canons at the top of each arm, but nothing more. i think we are quite free to decide on our own.

so, what do you guys think that this station should get?

[Prophet]

I don't like the idea of beams on stations... Even if I did, I still would not like them on a Narn station. No. That idea was dead on birth. Giving it beams dooms it in to eternal damnation.

Swarm pulses rulez!!!

[0rph3u5]

the jadul is a starbase for threatened colonies isn't it? (like the fromer Quadrant 14 - Narn colony)
so why don't installing a single highrange beam-gun in the center of the station to give larger capships some punches until support arrives...

I personnally think it should have one or two artillery turrets (like Nova-front guns) at the end of each arm or the already mentioned beam-gun for stopping caships... than just a couple of standart laser-flaks to keep away fighters - but not too many as fighter should take up most of the defence toghether with a single or two capships...

[Whitelight]

Weaponary, depends on when the station was built, ahh, but I did leave out upgrades.

Yes, they would upgrade weapons in critical areas I would think.

[aipz]

If it was meant more as a military outpost than a civilian station it should have definetly 1 or 2 heavy plasma/pulse cannons on each end. I'm not sure about the x-rays though, as only the newest Narn ships posses them... Aside that
15-21 light antifighter pulses should do the work, oh and some missles (either anticapship or antifighter) would be interesting (e.g. energy mines). Howewer this station should not be overpowed / it should handle a g-quan or a hyperion without problems, but more powerful ships have to pose a lethal threat to it/.

EDIT the upper part of the central section  is a nice place to put a big bad weapon ( if ihe station has to have an x-ray laser I would vote to place it there).
Any thoughts about that idea?

Sounds good to me, what he said.

Energy mines on a station? Doesn't sound wery smart (like firing nukes on your own soil) And would that make it overpowered?
I am also a little scared of the numbers there... How big is this? I would rather have quality over quantity...

You asked for it. I think big bad weapon in the central section is way too predictible and old as an idea. And I doubt Narns would be willing to equip that kind of heavy (and expensive) firepower on a station. Since it's tactical uses are severly limited. If the enemy doesn't happen to be in the fov, the weapon is useless.

Just my thoughts...

The energy mines were only an example... aside that their use is limited - they are a long range precise weapon
(only a few volleys are always fired and if the enemy jumps out closer it is completely useless )
About the number of light pulse cannons... It's not overpowered - compare it to Ja'stat (~40) or Orion(~16), the LONAW station also has a similar number of weapon placements - remeber that this is a military outpost afterall, it has to be able to defend itself from 1-2 cruisers...

I think that the x-ray laser would be only a secondary main weapon - most of the firepower should come from 3-6 heavy plasma pulse turrets and some missles.
EDIT the x-rays firing arc would be limited but only on the "bottom" and because of the station "wings", but the heavy pulses would still be able to fight back in these directions
