The Rheinland one looks very much like the Unioner fighter in shape (which is also a blend of an eagle and wraith). It's kind of interesting, this civilian escort looks far cleaner though.
Any way, now I'll be off, have fun arguing and stuff about these ships. I miss you, Disco!
I like them all except the texture on the wings of the Condor. It simply doesn't look right i think.
' Wrote:The most bizzare problem I've come across with these ships is the Kusari ship swapping models with the Gallic Tradelane model I made, it's not fun flying as a tradelane with no engine, since you can't see anything or go any where xD

In a brilliant tactical movement, i charged backwards.

Yeah I'm aware of that. The difference between the Shrike and the current Arbeiter is pretty small, the Arbeiter has one engine, the Shrike has two like the Valkyrie, the Shrike also has two extra fins at the bottom.
I know the two ships are similar, but there wasn't a whole lot more I could do, except maybe give it a Rhienland front and civilian rear. I'm hoping that since the Arbeiter and Shrike have two different roles it won't matter so much.
Can't get any new pictures right now since I sent my mobo away to get fixed, but I've fixed up the Condor's textures, it looks a bit bland but it doesn't look as bad. I'm still having issues with the ship's models swapping, I'm completely stumped as to what the problem is.
No. These are ships designed and marketed to be escorts and civilian ships. Civilians and Escorts don't really need to kill capital ships, so they don't need to be flying bombers.
If you want them so badly, you're welcome to make them.
But I stand by what I said, civilians and escorts don't need to kill Gunboats. Escorts might have to fight them occasionally, but only long enough for their transport to escape. It's not a civilians job to fight pirates and terrorists, especially in gunboats.
And it's not too hard to kill gunboats in fighters. We used to do it with 2 eagles and a switchblade.
