How would mecha-Aestivals ruin WoD?  The only thing WoD is currently missing is giant robots.

Why would Aestivals need to transform into robots anyway? They are pretty overpowered as they are.
I wonder if newer Cyrvan strikecraft also transform into robots.

For breaking alien bug queens out of needlessly massive Flagships, apparently. :p

They aren't needlessly massive.  Hertak rulers have small penises.

While I am normaly against space mecha, WoD is the perfect game for them to exist, and I would absolutely love to see them in WoD. Like, I'd cream myself if I saw flying mecha ingame. Macross style!

Been loving mecha shows since I was a little kid. Will suspend disbelief for them any day.
Long time ago, you see, there was this thing called the VBB and... oh, nevermind.

Mechas are fine, even just playing C&C Red Alert 3 you probably feel like everyone wants mechas these days.

Another thing, Is it just me, or anyone think that the Guardian Angel seems too small to be a carrier type ship. Don't need to be the size of an Orion, but I just think it needs to be somewhat bigger.

The Guardian Angel could easily support a fairly small fighter complement, 16 to 24. This is, admittedly, probably too small to make a good fleet carrier (which should be able to both mount a strike and still deploy a strong defense), but it's workable for an escort carrier.

Well the Nimitz class carrier is 330m in length and it carries around 90 planes/heli's
The GA may not seem that big, but its actually 900m in length

In term of firepower yes, I just think that the fighter bays feels a little crammed to carry all those fighters.

The two forward prongs are about half of it

  • The sky is the limit.
GA is a medium assualt carrier, which is meant to carry fighters into battle and survive in it, but not for heavy direct combat or large scale operations.

Plus ship systems and considering their fighters seem to be fairly large...maybe 36-40 fighters. That'd make it a light fleet or large escort carrier. Still not able to mount a real strike and defend itself at the same time, but more than suitable to provide cover and scouting/early warning to a battlegroup.

So what kind of carrier was the LSF usining, or maybe is still using, before the GA was build? In the campaign you never see any carriers, but with that many fighters it's unlikely they have non.
Will we see them, or their successors, in WoD2?

That would be the champion, it'll still be in service by the time of WoD2.  A large number of these ships have been build yet losses of this class has been few

Does the LSF have a battleship to go with that carrier?
