After an attempt at the SB Nahema, I played a bit around, blew up my own station and all my defenses while testing it (god, dammit, why the hell did I have to spawn that many?!).
Of course, it's quite fancy, flying a bomber, destroying bases in no time and all, but I didn't want pirates (that I renamed to Shivans) to fly Isanth, but I don't want them to fly only bombers. So I tried to find a ship, a shivan fighter, to balance things a bit.
A much bigger station later, and hell a lot of time, the SF Mara is born. This ship is supposed to be 17.8m long, but ingame, that's actually 100m long. Because details. Because wedges. Because, hell, I want to work on that ship a lot. That's the ship you get to fly only once in Freespace 2, and yet, that's one of the best. Nostalgia...
UPDATE: Here it is! Done! Yet not as well built as I wanted. I updated the pics, posted the stats and let you the blueprint. Blueprint's stuff is as usual: you can modify it, repost it however you like, as long as credit's given. That's all.
Ladies and gentlement, I present you the(unfinished) Shivan Figther Mara:
View attachment 4025 I never built something that made me curse wedges like this one I must say. And I hate doing Shivan wings, not matter how you look at those, it always feel like something could be done better. So, massive wings overhaul coming in a few days. Or more.
Now from above: (Mine's wings look a bit fat, gonna modify it someday).
And the back of the bug (because it looks a bit like one honestly):
And a small interior, not as complete as I'd like but...
I also let you the blueprint, if you wanna play with it :3
Current stats are the following:
Length: 100m
Width: 125m
Height: 23m
Mass: 5.673
Blocks: 56.733
Max shield: 542.468
Shield regen: 24.491
Thrust: 11.333
Power: 2.242.965
Power regen: 1.018.464
- 4 Beams with full cannon support (slave) and full piercing effect, 500 blocks each
- 2 Missiles with partial (32%) beam support, 1000 blocks each
- Includes Radar Jammer
