Aye, with a comment!
Why is it a gunboat? A gunship would be more apropriate for the Gaians ::Shrugs:: Good job none the less.

...What texture problems?
- like - totally forgetting to texture the right side of the model....

So? I'd still fly it.

Thats a very pretty ship! Good job yet again!
I can't wait to see this in-game.

like i said - this ship was made out of the frustration with the bretonian ships - i don t know if the gaians can really justify to have a gunboat they call their own. - they re not really the faction that can build ships. ( or even wants to be able to build ships )
dunno what igiss plans with it - or how the chances are that its gonne be a playable ship.
here are the hardpoint stats btw:
- "only" 5 turret hardpoints ( 4 front, 1 backwards )
- size is "quite small" - like the kusari gunboat
- on testflights - it felt the best with BHG gunship / kusari gunboat agility - maybe only 260 cargo ( so it cannot equip caparmour 1-7 ) like the bhg - its really small from the front - and when it does not share the kusari gunboats vulnerability - its fine to have only like 95k hitpoints ( so 2 supernovas can take it down )

Whoa whoa whoa, hold up a minute. These people are eco-terrorists, not friggin "fairies of the woods" or something. I say get rid of the wings, they make the ship too big, too nymphy, too butterfly-y, and just generally not Gaian.
If you insist on keeping the wings, please at least change them to vines or tree branches. Fairy wings should never appear in Freelancer.
Edit: I realized that this may have made me sound like i don't like the ship, which is untrue. I like pretty much the whole thing except for the wings.

They're not fairy wings, they're pumpkin vines. A homage to the pumpkin juice on which Gaian ships run.

Down, Dopa, Down. The wings are decorative, and you're not a Gaian, so lay off da Jinx. That thing is small, fast and efficient, the way a Gaian gunship SHOULD be.
As for the model, it's a 'Gunship' really, so small, like the Kusari Gunboat, and have the infocard state that it's a fairly rare ship that must be custom-built in the bays at Islay, so no assembly-line production. It's not like the Gaians are a popular faction anyways, I wouldn't expect to see too many of them running around.
