I will admit that I don\'t build well with others. :(

They are kind of delicate. I find it helpful to place them in different spots along the front of the ship, like one on the nose, top, sides, and bottom. Don\'t forget that you can hold shift and roll your mouse wheel back to zoome out of your ship and go into, effectively, 3rd person mode, if...

When pondering such things as adding new systems or modifying the existing ones, it seems beneficial to consider if the additions add depth or simply add complexity. Depth is desireable. Complexity for complexity\'s sake is not. For hyperbolized instance: I will propose that, for the sake...

You\'ve really stepped up your game and that\'s awesome. I will offer a bit of advice. I noticed this issue in some of your contest entries, too: It\'s not usually a good idea to put your core right on the front of your ship like that. A single missile strike to the nose of your ship...

Here\'s the recolored Dirge Mk II. It\'s still missing its ventral turret docks, but the paint job is almost done. Gone is the blocky spelling of the class name and, in it\'s place, a simple and elegent VFW logo along with various stripes, blandishments, and what have you. A side-on-view to...

*Astounding!*

Can you\'ns borrow me a boss of soda?

We shall resume the use of the traditional Yellow/Black scheme for our commercial products. Worry not, dearest Trollerbobman, we will simply swap white bits for yellow bits and then apply the new livery designs to the outside. Also, did you know that the VFW\'s Warfare Beaurau maintains an...

Personally, one of the ideas I\'d like to see implemented for a few different systems are things that let the player customize the color or even output graphic. For engines you could pick if you even had a trail, what color it would be, and maybe a secondary graphic, like smoke or what have...

It would finally allow me to create a 1:1 scale model of the ship from Galaxy Quest.

I have a vessel that is 42 m long. It\'s primary role is to carry/service two fighters. What is it? I have a vessel that is 600 m long, devoid of turrets or even crew quarters. It has a single small cockpit and is mostly a giant gun along with shields and power generators. What is it? I...

Role is central. Size/mass/tonnage is secondary as these will change dependant upon naval doctrine and technology level. The emphasis on size/mass/tonnage by the community is mostly a desire to impose a unified classification system on everyone and to have something unimportant to quibble...

The armor cowlings aren\'t too massive, actually. The added thrust really offsets it. It does drive the price up further, which is a shame, but we do plan on using non-hardened hull bits for the internal detailing this time around in order to help with the overall expense and weight. Inside...

The prototype for the Mk 2 Dirge, the Vecordean Fleetwoorks Corporate Warfleet Vessel (VFWCWFV) Dirge of Scythia. I want to get the new VFW look down before I start working on the contest winners. Whatcha think, folks? White/black or should I return to the traditional VFW yellow/black?

In the works, man. With the current docking nonsense, it\'ll be a little bit, I think.

Any one feel like hazarding a guess as to what this nearly-completed prototype is? Looks a bit familiar, doesn\'t it? It seems that adding Glowing Mystery Effluvia Jam to the impeller sub assemblies and adding some experimental cross-links boosts the thrust output of these prototype Mk II...

This things\' rad. The insides aren\'t done, but full of all sorts of neat stuff. And surprises. Like the inside of your uncle\'s skirt. :F

Uh-oh! It seems someone enabled my \"strange and terrible fancy\" subroutine. Oh how it claws at me. Stay tuned.

I\'ll post it later tonight. :D

The winners of our corvette contest will show up in our catalog later this week. We apologize for the recent dearth of meaningful updates and rest assured, dearest customers, that we are still working hard to produce vessels that are pleasing to the eye and devestating to the pocketbook. Our...
