Well... I just can't put my finger on it, but the first frigate had to go. Actually, there is a bug with the effects right now where they don't work. Some message says 'firing with inactive ion effect'. So the first frigate is loaded with useless effect modules. It's also small for a frigate... So I made its slightly bigger replacement. I present, the assault frigate: Loaded with 12 vertical launch tubes and a soon to be installed beam cannon, it's got some stopping power for a ship it's size. Has a bigger interior too! I also 'painted' it with the white and purple detailing I think I'll use on the mothership. I figured white is neutral and purple is a combo of the blue and red lighting I'm going to install... What do you think of the colors?
Oh, and you can get weapons to fire a certain direction by orienting the weapons computer's placement arrow. I didn't know til recently anyway
