    I have been working on new ships for basic Starmade usage for a little while now. I have contacted schema in regards to my plans but have yet to receive a reply. The plans are as follows:

    - Create Isanth ships modeled I to X (skipping existing VII), growing more powerful as the series progresses.

    - Create variants of Isanth VII to X to add a little more variety.

    - Create many new series of ships that specialize in alternative weaponry.

    - Share with the community when I feel they are ready. (Or individual series are ready)

    None of these ships are going to be huge, they will all be able to engage the player in ways that may require you to think. Since spawning is random, pirate waves will vary in difficulty. On average, difficulty would be the same now but could be easier/harder depending on what series your ship is better at fighting against and the level of the spawned opponents.

    Players will be able to import these ships into their servers and use them for a more diverse experience. Hopefully in the future, these ships will become standard parts of the game. I wanted to wait until I had more to show for my work but it seems there is a lot of interest in default ships at the moment on the suggestions part of the forum, so I decided to share this with you all sooner.

    Eventualy I will make some bigger ships that exceed the Isanth-X, but these are a lesser priority than the ones I have already mentioned.
