The United Citizen Federation Shipyard
(A Starship Troopers Themed Shipyard)

I'm currently building ships on the Scorched-Gaming server based off of the Starship Troopers movie/game/graphic novel universe. Keep in mind that there are plenty of ships to be built and this thread will be updated as often as possible, the early stages of this thread will be missing some information due to lack of current content. Currently none of the ships will be available for download, as of right now this thread's purpose is to show some of my work. Most of my ships are referenced from this Mod for Star Wars: Empires at War, some names of ship classes have been changed. Please do leave comments, suggestions, and questions.

Here's a link to an old ship I made inspired by StarShip Troopers, it's a personal dropship.

EDIT: Btw these ships look awesome, keep it up!

 

[Captain Tankman]

I love the Starship Troopers ships.

Are you going to build the iconic viking dropship, too?

Spoiler: Viking Dropship

I made the Alesia from Star Ship Troopers: Invasion, well at least that was the reference. Its not a replica but take a look anyway

Spoiler: Alesia Attack Frigate

Version 1:

Version 2:

Thats a pretty cool concept there, I like it. I had an idea of something similar ship but this looks good. Thank you.

I have plans to build both drop ships, the Skyhook and the Viking. (Skyhook is just the smaller variant). I was actually planning on building them soon. That Alesia looks awesome, a wonderful job. I gave the Alesia a shot a while ago, didn't finish because life got busy and the ship quickly became outdated. I attempted the triple engines but it looks pretty ugly to have two at an angle and one straight on, I do prefer your 4 engine set up a lot more. But here some pics of it, had to find it floating around in my SP universe.

Spoiler: Pictures, Woot. Wow.

 

[Krazykat]

I think the engines look fine, as does the entire ship. I would do some Starship troopers things if I wasn't busy with any another project

 

[Captain Tankman]

I tested the triple engine design, too. It wasn't a blast

Spoiler

But I have to admit, I really like your front end. It looks way smoother than on my alesia :D

 

[ToyotaSupra]

Looks fine to me. Glad someone is doing some ST work.

@Krazykat here's some motivation for when you do get time:

 

[Krazykat]

o dear I almost forgot how epic the music is

EDIT: Listening to this I literally got back into the game and continue building my carrier to hold troop transports (WHICH NOW WORK BECAUSE WE CAN CHAIN DOCK YEEEESSSSSSSS)

 

[Krazykat]

also one thing i found out a while ago, if you make your marauder suits the right way you can place docking modules really close to each other to save space. This is invaluable on smaller dropships to be able to hold more capsules.

 

[Captain_Stripes]

Sorry for the hold up on updates guys, my station was deleted through an admin mis-targeting an object. So a lot of building resources went bye-bye. But on the upside, I get to rebuild my station and i'll give updates within this thread as well.

Also here's a quick look at the Skyhook I completed, there are going to be three versions, the standard transport, a medical transport and a technical version where that box behind and under the cock pit will be replaced by a docking area to transport cargo boxes, turrets, ect.

Spoiler: Skyhook Image

Have you made any of the big ships yet? Like the Roger Young? I so please tell me and where to find it! Thanks!

 

[Captain_Stripes]

Wow zombie thread here. Unfortunately the larger ships are on hold. Due to many changes in the game all of my current ships are being refitted, so the stats given on the OP are waaay off now. Actually that frigate in the OP has been refitted at least 7 times from posting this thread. Also as previously stated in an other post, my station, where all my factories and such was accidentally deleted. Im doing all my builds legit, on the ignite gaming server. If you ever stop by on the server, you would have to travel to my base, but you can see the progress im making there.

I do feel incredibly bad about not keeping up here. I wanted to make much more progress much faster. So I feel that I owe it to anyone still watching this thread a quick screenshot of what I have so far.

this is Ticonderoga (still in construction). Obviously I have made some adjustments to the actual design myself. That ship you see there, un-docked, just below and left of that bright beacon on the top; is the McClusky class frigate. The station is 1km wide in diameter, with 8 (so far) of 19500 dps, self sufficient turrets. Im putting the heavier work into the station rather than new ships because since its a legit build on a somewhat active server, I need to protect most valuable assets first. Ships can be bought from the catalog. Stations are incredibly hard to rebuild. I hope I can add more to this thread soon. But dont get too much hope built up. I will update this as soon as I have something new to show. Once again, im incredibly sorry.

cant wait till there is a available ship class like the roger young, ill be sure to keep watching your thread

 

[Mariux]

I like that frigate, but you might want to refine the shape of the side engines a bit. And maybe some more detail in the front.

So are these ships up for download?
