Yes it is a PROPOSED replacement for the Immortal Huntress.
This was commissioned before the collapse of that faction. HOWEVER, there are other servers out there with functioning Phantoms.
and who knows
Maybe this will inspire you lot to resurrect the Phantoms in one incarnation or another.
Originally the design had nothing to do with Freelancer. I drew something, felt it was alien-ish... people liked it, Dart gave it form... and here we are.
Dart and I seem to have a synergy when we work in a team. I look forward to more collaborations with him.
So in answer to all those "I can haz" people out there. You can haz, if you earn it and want it that badly.

The open use GBs gor generic ids are limited to the KuEx. This would help give more options.
Also, it would fit as a light frigate-maybe give generic IDs something to counter the pirate gunboats better? Give it 6 guns (1 less then the LSC) with an appropriate powerplant. Have Barrier Gate sell slightly less powerfull Freelancer Frigate Turrets, LMs, and presto-you got a Freelancer/Merc light frigate to help counter gunboats. two LMs, full turrets, would be a good small cap for wealthy freelancers and mercs:)and it would help to fight back at lolcapspam.
Enemy has legates? Send in a few bombers and two of these and LM snipe to draw attention. RM turtlespamming? LM snipe them to add some hurt while the bombers move in.
That said, if the modeller doesn't want the ship to go to waste and submits it for whatever purpose, it could end up anywhere.
Once a ship is submitted, it isn't in the hands of the modeller anymore.
Amazing clarity on the dev forums, not one topic mentioning the phantoms (At all) and yet the decision is made.
To be honest, the development of Discovery is a pile of cow manure. Great work is done, some good folks involved but it's such a bloody mess.
Oh and on that note, the SCRA ought to pipe up about being mentioned in the storyline posts. Not that it really makes much of a difference, the storyline leaves lots to be desired.
Ship is a private design, I was seeking it for an independent project not connected to Disco. So I am retaining full rights to it for that.
No, I was contacted and asked if I would mind having it included as a replacement for the Immortal Huntress. Due to the VERY alien aspect of the ship.
It simply wouldn't fit anywhere else, no matter how much people wish. For that I am truly sorry, I think it is a great design, but who would make it and why?
No, it fits where it is going beautifully. And I am fairly certain that some creative person will resurrect the Phantoms in some new form, and we will see a truly great RP-ship combo.
Good luck to that person I say.
Now as for other servers, they deserve their toys too. Let them have it and good luck to them!
