The Hecate would be more akin to a heavely armed super carrier . With the Hattie having better hul plating and guns(it must be german made) ! :P

The orion is more like a a battleship paid a late night visit to a carrier and 9 month's later a uber baby of terror was spit out and well looks like it wasnt breast fed enough as it doesnt have enough aaaf capabilaties.

Well its red...but i don't think its been boiled enough .....some plasma beams would o the trick i think...


When you want to make a lobster like a fancy restaurant woul make make sure to use the Vasudan plasma beams. Nothing cook's them faster or better !

Leave the animalistic designs for Vasudan ships.

Leave the arachnid- and insect-esque to the Shivans.

Boxy designs or boxes with streamlines goes to the Terrans.

And yeah, the Iceni is more of a runner than a fighter. Its maximum velocity well implies that.

Oh you still believe in fairy tales like Santa, the Easter Bunny, and free market competition principles?

 
Freespace cap ships always remind me of the lil engine that could. All those ginormous engine glows and they put along slower than my grand mother... no wonder they discovered sub space.... no one woulda ever gotten anywhere =p

Well, would you like to look at an Orion and a Demon firing beams at each other while flying around at 5000 m/s, making crazy loops? :lol:

actually... yeah  ;7

When's the next JAD coming out?

And since I mixed a few members up, here's something to read:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Dreadnought_(1906)

(2 calibers of main guns, IMHO, is the same as the use of slash and direct beams on one ship. The Shivans might have grown out of slashers after building a revolutionary Dreadnought equivalent, and that's why they use only direct firing beams. The GTVA still has to figure out that a 3 gun broadside from the Hat hurts much more than the 2 BGreens+2 TerSlashes an Orion could offer)

Think about setting the time compression to x64 in a dense asteroid field. Your wingmen just don't have fast reflexes to dodge asteroids at 800m/s.  :p

 
thats just cruel. FOR SHAME!

That + ETAK explains why it has 3 BGreens (2 on one side, 1 on the other) instead of 4 (2 on both sides to balance it).
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

:nod:

Still, I wonder what kind of power plant does the Iceni have. How is it possible for something slightly larger than a Deimos to mount such powerful beam cannons and ETAK in the same ship?

BUNNIES!

Well, the Iceni was a one-of-a-kind ship that the NTF poured all their resources into, so the NTF probably didn't hold back in giving it all the stuff they had.
