    Hello everyone. This page is for all of the ships that I am working on for my fleet, which I call the TCDF (Terran Colonial Defense Force)

    Here's a picture of my station with all the ships docked to it; I'll upload images of one of them once I finish my refit. (which should be today)

    Well, got the Merlin refit fast. Managed to get it done before lunch. Some of you may remember this from the old site, but now I have all of the weapons on it, and the new decorative blocks.

    In the main body there is a giant Siege laser and kinetic autocannons. The pods each have a nuclear missile, and the pods also have the swarm missile system.

    Underneath the main body is a rapid missile array.

    Back of the ship, showing the engine and the turret wings.

    Shuttlebay at the back of the main body. Shuttlepod included with standard purchase.

    Front of the fire control room.

    other side of the fire control room

    Crew lounge/meeting room/mess

    Bridge. Captains chair, pilot, and nav/weapons station

    Storage zone showing the shuttebay as well

    I like it. It has a certain bomber-esque aesthetic that I find appealing. I must also applaud your ability to combine light and dark colors while avoiding clashing. Props.

    Hey, I'm alive. Hopefully the mods won't lock this thread, and I won't have to start a new one. Got a bit burnt out from starmade, took a break from playing. I do have two ships that I need to screenshot, and one ship approaching the final stages of assembly.

    Anyway, thanks for all the feeback one this. Hope the other ships are just as well received. @RoosterTheRed I'm glad you think that. The Merlin is an assault frigate, meaning it's essentially a bomber 150m long.

    Here are the CDS Audux and CDS Vocifer. The Audux is a scoutship, the Vocifer is an attack corvette.

    Hey all, thanks for the likes. Anyway, I'm working on a cruiser and while it's pretty much cosmetically done, I do want to do the weapons before finishing it off. Anyway, the last cosmetic bit is a room I have no idea what to do with.

    That's it from the back. It's in the center of the ship, on top, and I already have fire control, bridge(s), medbay(s), mess(es), crew quarters, multiple engineering rooms, cargo bays and shuttlebays. There's no reason a warship should have a room like this, but I really like the outside shape. I'd welcome any suggestions about what I can do with this space.

    Um, I can't fit docks in there, since it's too short (docking system needs work) and also I already have room for 10 fighters in my shuttebays already (or a lot more drones)

    What server do you use this fleet on? (Yes, I do wanna join, no, I'm not good at building, yes, I'm good at dogfighting)[DOUBLEPOST=1410790101,1410789640][/DOUBLEPOST]And just because the Fleet is called TCDF, maybe you should make a TBF Avenger :D

    And btw, I am trying to convince my friend to host a starmade server off the hard drive he bought, if it works out, maybe we can use it as a multiplayer test server for our fleet and stuff or PvP against other ppl... But dont get your hopes up yet, this is a possibility and it happening is not guaranteed.

    Tada! all finished.


    Okay, not really. I'm not sure if the shield-supply beams are working correctly (I'm putting them on so I don't have to for the torpedoes.) and there is still a lot of interior and exterior detailing to do. Also logic, and can beams go through docked ships? By the way. you can see how much higher the ceiling is now in the second pic. I'm pretty pleased about the new profile of the hull.

    Idk, I'm not familiar with the new updates... I still only do the old stuff from when the textures were terrible...[DOUBLEPOST=1410862324,1410861954][/DOUBLEPOST]and how do you build so good? :p
