    Glad to have you iHasTnt!

    Currently everything needs to be rebuilt from the ground up except for a few ships which will simply be tweaked (Drones and Black Bird)
    Leanson had graciously offered to renovate the Erosion however appears to have gotten himself banned for a little while meaning it may or may not happen. So if someone good with systems is looking for a faction I need you!!!

    New Caldera Empire Cruiser progress shot. Notice that this is merely the "Head" Section

    There is an Erosion beside it for reference

    I do not recognize this ship from EVE, looks more Battlestar-ish

    My faction like yours now is using more custom EVE themed ships than actual ones. I'll let @Vanhelzing do the actual remakes since he has more accurate sources than I. In my opinion Caldera Ships are slightly more smooth than True Caldari ships. This is what sets them apart I think.

    Our ships still stay true to the Amarr's design style thou they aren't in the actual game to the person who has never played EVE they can easily be mistaken for a replica. Thing is I couldn't tell your ship was Caldari inspired but maybe its because their ships look more generic.

    It will be a while before you get a full fleet I am afraid. You will probably also want to refit them depending on how you want them to handle. And of course they will likely be bigger.

    Updated some of my smaller fightercraft and shuttles. Also took Criss's Shuttle and gave it a Caldera refit with guns :)

    I have a very special update. The Caldera Empire Vector Assault Frigate has finally gone under a refit.

    BRIEF HISTORY OF THE CLASS

    The class was originally designed by NuclearFun however he didn't keep it around and as such gave me the class. It quickly became a quick and lethal anti pirate force with its high rate of fire and superior turrets. Until now it had not been refit since it's initial construction. The MKII Features two Jump Drive (Starmade equivalent of EVE Online Warp Drives) Engines and up to date weapon specs. A door for the hangar has been added and the exterior got a touch up with the new blocks such as Ice Wedges. It's turrets are being rebuilt from the ground up.








    In the back ground you may notice another project. The ship is the BERT Condor in the community content section. I gave it a hull overhaul and interior overhaul. I also covered it's Jump Drive which was open to the elements. It's Jump Drive design style is now the standard style for ships of the size range from Frigate to Corvette.


    EDIT.

    Caldera Empire Website updated with latest faction activity levels and new Vector Images and News post. Original Post here also edited.

    Guys why is TwoNiner a new member?
    Plus, the only word in my head that can describe that station is cute.

    Don't worry it will get bigger mainly in the up down axis. That's just reactor coupling 1 level and control. The two ribbed halls will lead to the actual shipyard part. Shipyard will be able to hold Destroyer class vessels meaning at the least it will be 300 meters long 200 meters wide and 100 meters tall. Also there will be two!

    In preparation for an upcoming project I have built a small platform for new containers. It can hold only four but each container has 12 Storage Units.
