My newest attempt to create an agile and powerfull (but mostly cool looking) fighter.

Ladies and gentleman, I present you the Defender MK1:


Features:
-2 AMC arrays
-2 Targeting Missile Systems

 

[Captain Tankman]

I\'ve cleaned the interior a bit and uploaded my Valkyrie class.
Take a look =)

[Captain Tankman]

Unfortunately I\'ve destroyed the Defender during a weapons test and noticed afterwards I didn\'t save it as blueprint :/


Anyway, I\'ve decided to give the bold liner a facelift.
Ladies and gents, I present you the new \"Heimdall MK1\" Fast Travel ship:


Features:
-Experimental Hyperspace drive
-Lots of interior room
-Cupholders and a pair of brand new windshield wipers (only a limited amount available)

 

[MisterVec]

Quite a pretty little ship! Much like! So wow! Shipe!

 

[Captain Tankman]

I should have mentioned that the MK1 Version of the Heimdall Class was just a \'Work In Progress\'-ship.

Here is now the new, shiny and finished version of the ship, the \"Heimdall MK2\":


Thanks to MisterVec for the support and ideas ;D

 

[Captain Tankman]

aaaaand another new ship. The \"Nidhogg\"-Class support cruiser:



Features:
- 10 AMC Turrets
- Holoscreen on the Bridge
- great acceleration
- stable powersupply



I\'m not quite satisfied with the rear, but its doing it\'s job at the moment =)

 

[Sven_The_Slayer]

The Heimdall and Nidhogg look great!

 

[mariottian]

I\'m ready for some downloads!! :P They all look great. I really liked the defender..

 

[Captain Tankman]

here you go guys. I uploaded the Heimdall Mk2: http://star-made.org/node/15071



And I\'ve done some improvements on the Nidhogg (upload will follow when its finished )
13 turrets and 5 AMC arrays:




Oh and btw. due the loss of the Defender I\'m already planing to build a similar new fighter

 

[Captain Tankman]

a little preview on my upcoming ship. The Sleipnir Fleet Carrier



She will hold up to four fighters and a decent weaponary (maybe round about 11 small turrets and a bigger one on the top or so )



stay tuned

 

[Captain Tankman]

Yay! Here she is! The Sleipnir Fleet Carrier! Well... unfortunately the ship is way too small to operate as a carrier... only one fighter fits into the hangar.

Anyway she is looking stunning so here you go guys:


Features:
-14 small Turrets
-6 mini Turrets
-nice hangar

 

[Sven_The_Slayer]

I, for one, am surely impressed with your progress as a ship builder. Sleipnir looks great even if it doesn\'t hold many fighters. I started building my light carrier around the flight deck and I didn\'t even get as many fighters in it as I desired. Of course unless you\'ve got your heart set on Sleipnir being a fleet carrier you can always reclassify her and save \"fleet carrier\" for when you build the mighty \"Valhalla\"

 

[Captain Tankman]

Thank you so much, sven!

I want to design a decent fighter (smaller than the one shown) so I can at least put two of them into the hangar

Starting with the flight deck sounds like a good plan. I should have done it this way, too ;D

With the term \"fleet carrier\" it thought it would always operate in a big fleet-band. So it wouldn\'t be necessary that lots of ships fit into it, but server as supporting mobile hangar for a few. A big carrier which holds up serveral fighters and maybe some more ships and which can operate independently for a long time, I\'d classify this as a \"capital carrier\" or similar Long story short: fleet carrier is okay for the sleipnir =D

Anyway, \"Valhalla\" for a giant capital ship sound epic and is fitting, too. But I\'m quite too lazy to build something this big that really deserve this name D=

 

[Captain Tankman]

Hey Guys! I finally improved the overall look of the Nidhogg and the interior as well.

Here are the fresh pics:

 

[Mason]

I like how your building style has progressed.

 

[Vandred]

That is an impressive line of ships, color me thoroghly impressed. I\'m loving the design style. Keep it up!

 

[Captain Tankman]

At first thanks to Mason and Vandred for the kind words =D



I just started a new ship. The \"Unicorn\"-Class Command Cruiser. Here are the WIP shots:


Maybe I\'m changing the big \"wings\" with a Warp-Ring. Not sure yet^^

 

[ltmauve]

I certainly think the warp wing would go well on the back.

 

[Mason]

How many turrets does that thing have? I can give you a BP for a short range turret that works very, very well, if you want.

 

[Captain Tankman]

Well she has 52 of my small turrets by now^^

Instead of making a warp ring I added a whole section to the ship. Now the Unicorn can hold up to two Defender-MK2 Fighters and one Wasp Fighter (pictures of both coming soon!) and has now a brilliant energysupply.

Here are the fresh shots of my best ship yet IMO:
