Hey, all. I was thinking about Blue Planet and recalling the appearance of all the ships, and I was wondering how the design of some ships, like the Karuna, came about.

The Karuna reminds me of a ship in Babylon 5 that also has that spinning thing. Is that how it came about?

Where does the Vishnan Preserver ship come from? It definitely isn't from Inferno.

And what's with the Jetpack? Where did it come from?

The Vishnan Preserver? The gigantic ship in the penultimate mission?

That would be the Apocalypse. Originally it was a Terran super-juggernaut developed for MT, IIRC. Darius reskinned it.

The others I'm not sure about.

The Sanctuary fighters are from the Uglies pack, which I think was made by Vasudan Admiral.

I'm not sure where the GTD Orion Mk. II came from.

The Orion Phase II is made by Hamano, a Japanese guy.

The Karuna's probably inspired by the Omega frigate. I mean it looks like one.

The JetPac's Aldo's deathtrap ship. I think it was originally a joke...

Look at its tech description. I like that "Pathetic" armour rating too.

    I don't think the Karuna's grav deck really fits freespace, would probably be more suited for a TBP mod. The ship looks pretty fragile in general. But it's a decent looking ship none the less, good to see the fruits of someone's labours being put into a campaign.

Am I the only one who hates having the Karuna compared to that Babylon5 ship ( Omega? )?

[Colonol Dekker]

It makes me think Stilletto from NEXUS if that makes you feel better Shadow

     Normally I would sympathize given most "that looks like this" sort of comments are really grasping at straws and the author has little to say. But in this case, the Karuna is so obviously similar that I don't sympathize much at all

Also, Steve-O himself said that it was inspired by the Omega.
End of argument.

Where do the new GTVA ships come from? The Raynor looks a bit similar to one of TrashMan's models.

They're all from StratComm's Terran Fleetpack.  Available on FSMods IIRC.  They're retextured, of course.

The logistics ship was TrashMan's. Originally supposed to be a mining destroyer.

[Aardwolf]

The Karuna is obviously a ripoff of the Alexei-Leonov.

The Anemoli? I like that ship.

[Droid803]

Anemoi with an "i"!
Its not an animal!

...oops...

[DarthWang]

There should be a Gargant or Gigas in the expansion

Or maybe a huge Vishnan superhive ship

Use that squid - looking one if necessary

You know what I'm talking about

The Sacred Keeper? That's a re-skinned ACa Akrotiri from INFR1.
