Jinx, Historically, a battlecruiser was essentially a ship that had the same firepower as a battleship, but a lot less armour and bigger engines as to make it much faster. Perhaps increase the size of that miniture engine?

I think this thing is many times better than the pervious attempt - looks more... just better ^^ . It'll resemble a Liberty GB now, but I think that is a desired effect.
All parts match eachother perfectly.
One thing... that hole in what appears to be the bow looks like a good place for a forward gun. I doubt it will be added, but maybe some day...
That's a huge impovement. It was a bit top-heavy before, but the reduced dread engine really rounds it off. Can we see this with the old (monkey) front as well. I think it would work better than the long snout. It sort of reminds me of a particular cartoon character atm, but I can't, for the life of me, place which one..........
jinx, you have outdone yourself, if for one am already drooling. Im so gonna buy that sucker when its in, just because it looks so unbeliveably awsome!
k - here is the textured version - should look liberty-ish enough now.... in order to ... errr... make it look a bit more powerful - i increased the backengine by 20%
scaled it exactly as long as the current assault frigate. - hardpointed it quickly but haven t made the ingame test yet - i ll do that once i have time - currently, out of 12 guns, 2 lvl10 and 9 lvl9 guns can shoot foreward, - one turret shoots backwards/ sideways only, 7 guns shoot upwards, 6 guns shoot downwards, 7 guns shoot backwards. - i haven t purchased the current liberty assault frigate ever - so i m not sure what turrets shoot where - but i ll look it up in hardcmp some time.
edit: tested ingame now
it is OK - i m have corrected a few misplaced textures ( such as the upside down eagle ) and turrets ( like the one upside down turret on the wing ) - and will switch the battleship turrets to the wings. i found no bugs. docking, undocking, tradelanes, mooring fixtures worked just fine.
