Harvester

[Dennis Jameson]

That description makes me wonder if i did a copy \ paste of the harvesters (who i knew nothing about... Yes, really) when i created my shoddy half-baked RP... Bah!

... But it's a very nice description none the less.

Ps. Shouldn't it be "siphon"?

Question: Is the Order getting a new cruiser in the next version?

If the huntress is replaced binary will need to find another black cruiser to use. Which is fine, as long as its black and looks extremely menacing. Several other Order characters ive seen flying around Minor/Delta in the huntress would have to switch aswell. Its more of an Order ship than a Corsair one in my book. Alien design, Found by the order, Sold on a zoner base, Solid black. How does that scream Corsair in any way? Regardless, that dont matter. Add the harvester ship, dont replace the huntress unless its with something black and mean.

I like the new Harvester ship and want it in there, but dont replace the huntress unless there is another black cruiser to use for binary and the order. *begs again*

This ship is realy a reflection of one of the best official factions so far. The Harvesters truly deserve such a ship and it will aid in there RP alot.

The design is fitting and looks intimidating.

Only one question. Is that the only ship all Harvester units shall use or will it be something they must reach by there own by developing and evolving ?

i had another light fighter for them ( - but since they don t use them.... scrapped design ) - and i m currently working on a VHF fighter for them ( replace for the kushan [ remember, buggy hitbox - cheap VHF sold on gammu ] ) - the design should be a rather compact and small VHF. - i don t think the stats of the current need to change - but to make up for the rather HF stats.. i d make it smaller ( maybe hammerhead sized )

so thats the plan. - the the harvesters would get one cruiser flagship and a VHF design that goes with that flagship. - no gunboat as of now, cause there is no gunboat that can be replaced to be added for them... i d say... lets have the faction really settle before we really add a new ship ( as opposed to simply replace existing ones )

and igiss hasn t said anything about the design yet - its submitted, but i don t know if he likes it and agrees with it.

I thought Igiss said he wanted no faction specific ships. It is the reason Xing's Coalition line isn't going to be made.

Wha....?! It isn't? Awww... I loved that design. :(

i don t know - i know he was against playerfaction designs, yes. - but opinions change. ... i am not 100% sure that he puts this one in.... ... there has been positive feedback, but thats about it.... .

from what i derived form the idea - ... and how it might fit into the storyline of what we have today is that:

maybe ships like these were discovered by zoners who venture deep into space. - they found juggernaut designs that are - since there is no other alien race than the dom kavosh - their design, ancient, but still. - the juggernaut ( or how i remodelled the replace ) vaguely resembles an organic design - ( see the sig ) - which is sort of similar to the nomad designs - with a "head" and a "tail" and a thin mid section.

now this ship can be / is meant to be either a prototype of what the dom kavosh have build before they created the nomads - meaning, an actual ship highly autonomous due to being mostly automatic or AI controlled - or ... a vision of what the harversters did with all the data they collected from organics and technology alike. - meaning something as efficient as the nomads yet as destructive as the human ships.




in a way.... such a ship could be used by anyone that had a reason to use it, even humans ( as it has a bridge section ) - it would be as specific as the nomad light fighter ( public version ) meaning that you d need a good reason to fly it... yet, not restricted to the harvesters.. but rather mostly to all AI chars - and secondaryily to harvesters... with a chance to be even used by non AI units ( maybe a mad zoner scientist )

but yes, the ship as it stands is mostly faction specific... and personally, i would like it to be used by AI chars only. ( not necessarily harvesters, but at least AIs )

but no clear word from igiss about it yet..... i just know he does not really support the phantoms to get their own ships - and now that you say that xings coalition ships are rejected, it suggests that his opinion to locked factions ships hasn t changed. ( there is a difference between the coalition and the harvesters ... harvesters and AIs are mostly open, even to non-playerfaction-players.... the coalition is a locked faction like the keepers, the phantoms, the novapg, the asgard warriors )

but only time will tell what we get ....

Shipdesigns made for DiscoveryGC

The problem with faction specific ships is that this mod is being played on other servers as well.
On these servers, there are no Harvesters, and the ship uses it's real purpose.
With it's infocard, it even says something that makes no sense at all in these other servers.

Ships are being made for Discovery mod, not Discovery RP server, you have to remember that.

I like the design, really, but maybe you should make it a bit more "universal".
Not the model itself, but the infocard.
Otherwise, I really doubt it will be accepted.
Compromises.

It is every Corsair's responsibility to die a beautiful death in defense of Crete, regardless of how OORP or how capwhoring the opposition is. Launch your fighter, joust the battlecruisers and die a beautiful death. Then, drink it down in the bar.
