Favourite Ship
on: April 17, 2008, 12:46:59 pm
What is your favourite ship in FSO/2/1? This can be any ship ever made, as long as someone has gotten it to work on FS0/1/2. It can be from a mod, a modeldump, anything, and you can call it your favourite for any reason. It can be any size.

And if you can, post a screenie.

I'm gonna have to say mine is probably the Raynor or Orion, because they look sweet, and kick ass, and really look like they're supposed to. (big and blocky; Terran)

Raynor:


You all know what the Orion looks like.

I'd have to go with SSJ Dante.
It was the thing that made me go. "Holy ****! I'm ****ed" when I first saw it in BP. Too bad its not really "killable". It looks cool, though.

At this point I would have to say the Hyperion by --Steve-O-- is my favorite ship.

[shameless plug] I like it so much that it is going to be featured in my campaign. [/shameless plug]

I would normally say the GTCv Deimos, but I wanted something a bit different...



...so here's my version of the GTBC Blade, the SGC Serenity.

No, that was not a reference to Firefly.

 :wtf:  :eek2::eek2:  What the hell is that!?

Have to be biased but the Orion is one of my favourites with myself prefering the Herc Mk1.  I have to disagree with Gamma_Draconis, as I loved the Athena, until it's true weaknesses become apparent.  No Prometheus and Interceptor limit it's role to either the role of heavy bomber escort where the Athena's disarm the target so that Medusa/Ursa's can use the heavy bombs, or a slow bomber interceptor.
I reject your reality and substitute my own, hence my existance on the Galatea!

...SSJ Dante.

Made by Nuke, I believe. Campaigns featuring it: Blue Planet.
Where you can find it: Nukemod.

It's a Shivan Super Juggernaut... an uber-powerful ship that is pretty well invincible to anything that isn't a super juggernaut. Its beams are powerful enough to kill a destroyer in a single shot.

What that picture doesn't show is the sheer size of that ship. Blue Planet estimates it at over five times the size of a Sathanas.


Anyway: my favorite ship... is really hard to choose due to the variety of amazing ships out there. :D
But, I'll go with the EAD Lindos:

Not sure why... I just love the look of it. It's different... and powerful to boot.

You mean, like a spiky wall?
And that Lindos looks notably different than the one I have on hand... for one, the hangar on the side is gone, and it got symmetrical.  :( But the HTL does make it look awesome.

That's the revamped Lindos that INF SCP is using. No, I don't actually have that model, just a pic of it.

My favourite FSO ship has to be the Rapier (Super Wing Commander variant) that I converted for my Convoy Intercept mission.

Got to be the Raynor, everything about is is perfect.  Honourable mention to the similarly named Reyena and GTD Sirona though.

There's something about this


That just looks unshivan to me.  The Shape of the arms and the predictable patterns on them, they look like they've been carved from stone and painted or something.

The Dante is a cool ship, albeit a little on the spikey side, and a little frail-looking (narrow parts near the middle look like they could snap).
