Re: Thunderbolt allmost done
Needs at least five barrels, c'mon!  :lol:  You've only got 3 on there.  Oh, and add a couple of hardpoints to the wingtips?  Just a small missile bay, or something... pretty thin, maybe holds 4 or 6 AA missiles each?  Yeah, I know, I'm trying to convince you to make it more like the A-10.  :p

Re: Thunderbolt allmost done
Looks like a bomber, but it looks more like a kamikaze ship. :nervous:

I wept. Mysterious forces beyond my ken had reached into my beautiful mission and energized its pilots with inhuman bomb-firing abilities. I could only imagine the GTVA warriors giving a mighty KIAAIIIIIII shout as they worked their triggers, their biceps bulging with sinew after years of Ivan Drago-esque steroid therapy and weight training. - General Battuta

bomber...medusa replacement

@JR2 - only 3, but 3 big'uns. That's a anti-cap weapon. Think Maxim on steroids.

Ah.. so it's more like a Gatling auto-cannon rather than a Gatling machine gun... or whatever.

You can shoot fighters with it too...but it only gots 500 bullets.

anywayz, it's close to completion...jsut a few more finishing touches (and hopefully a better texture some time in the future)

It's a big friggin' bulls-eye painted camouflage and can prob take out a Sathanas in about two bombing runs...
(The above assuming this vessel to be an A-10 analog)...

Re: Thunderbolt allmost done
Can you select different types of ammo?  Just have them be diff weapons, eg: GAU-8 HE, GAU-8 AP, etc... or w/e.  Good idea?

Re: Thunderbolt allmost done
Great work, I always liked your models. I think that it needs a missile bank, the frame is too small to look capable of holding FS-era missiles. It'd be fine as a Perseus-esque fighter, but as a bomber it needs more storage room. Unless it's huge. ;7

Oh, and, why is the teaser a pic of the Megaera?
Gettin' back to dodgin' lasers.

Ok, I get it. If It's supposed to be like the A-10, it's mainly a gun platform. Meaning that you would use it to make short work of Freighters transports and even cruisers, but it would be less effective against larger ships, except maybe to take out subsystems.

Re: Thunderbolt allmost done
I might have to check my scaling but it's pretty bug - medusa sized.

It's got the Reaper cannon, 4 other primaries and 2 large missile banks (roughly equal to medusa capacity).

It's not a Sath killer (that's what the Armageddon is for ;7), but it's also effective against destroyers.

That said, missles in FS are really to friggin huge so I simply ignore that.

ATM I still got to make debris for it and LOD level 3 and then it will be complete.

:wtf:

That's hte bottom view of the Galaxy with all the grebels and internal fighterbays and thingies. It's fully done but I'll have to re-convert it as the colission detection went completely fubar :ick:

I could make something like that.

Wrong. Take a look at the following image and tell me that the A-10 analog shouldn't be able to hold "FS-era missiles"...




(enough firepower?)

Wrong. The A-10 is primarily a bomber. However, it is unique in that its armor is sturdy enough to take multiple hits without critical systems damage, and its design is solid enough to allow flight without a wing and aileron. No other aircraft in the United States Air Force can take such punishment. Granted, it is skinny-looking, but it is more than capable of delivering its ordinance. I would hope that TrashMan gives this A-10 analog extremely sturdy hull integrity and more than enough firepower (the A-10 has a chin-mounted GAU-8 Avenger for cryin' out loud!).
