Well, there's no resistance in space really other than line of sight... anything that travels at the speed of light (aka light and some types of radiation) could be used to convey messages, but across any significant distance there would still be delays.

Yes, but you'd have to communicate over light years. In a combat situation, you can't wait 15 years for your orders.

I don't think that looks better than the previous version. Now it looks like they chopped off the fronts of 2 liberty dreads and stuck them on the side.
Are you going to make the arches more rounded?

Doesn't really resembe dread-heads too much. They're only curved on one side, and flat on the other.

*scratching head* Euh where are the fighters suppose to come out from?

There's openings on the aforementioned "dread-heads".


Altogether, I think this is a wonderfully designed ship. I think that the engine still needs a good bit of work, and I think that those arch things (like on the Osiris) up top need to be shorter, but it's a very, very nice design.

At the moment I have like 5 other concept of possible "pods" in my scratch yards, waiting to be tested. I seriously dont know which might be the best...

The ones on the last render look like engine pods or something. Since the ship is constructed with a defined vertical axis (There's a definate up and down) the pods slender structure looks odd.

Hanger pods on such a ship would look 'larger' if they were wider than they were tall. It's just how we perceive the axis etc. A tall hanger bay may have plenty of space and many floors but still looks smaller than a wide but low hanger bay.

the previous design was better, imo. - liberty ships are slender, kinda beautiful ( grey / blue colour - a sleek ship hull suggests something elegant and smooth ) - but they are also very functional. they have exhausts where they need them, they have few but well placed ornaments that serve no other purpose than to look good. ( in contrast to rheinland. rheinland ships are very functional with little compromise to the form. rheinland would prolly fly cubes into battle if they proved to be somewhat suprior to their current design )

i d like to see more functional parts on it. - the tubes should be more functional. - thats why i considered the very first design not bad at all. - the tubes being far away from the body. that suggested that "size" or "space" wasn t a major concern of the design. - liberty has space to operate, they don t hide in rocks. - a carrier never enters an asteroid field, more than any other capital ship, it can afford to stay outside and launch fighters into it.

the far away tubes looked good, cause - like i said in one other reply - they provided safety. with fuel / ammonition being stored there - its natural that a pod has to be somewhat distant to the vital mainbody of the ship - and that its only connected with absolutely necessary stabilizers. ( maybe ... so that it can be, in case of fire or other desasters, blown off - so it cannot endanger the ship itself. )

having the tubes close to the body makes the whole ship smaller of course and we know that in a pvp a smaller profile is an advantage - but it was more convincing to have the tubes far away. - a carrier isn t only meant to fight. its also a ship to intimidate. - like the zoner juggernaut it should also impress by its size. - for example the osiris doesn t look impressive at all - but its very efficient when it keeps a distance and dodges. the zoner juggernaut is nothing but a blunt axe. big and it can hit you like a truck - nothing is very sublte about it.

i think the liberty carrier can be more like that. - a checkmate move not by its equipment or stats... but by its size and appearence.

Shipdesigns made for DiscoveryGC

[Colonel Z.e.r.o.]

This is the Atlantis class Liberty Carrier. It is a completely new generation of warship as you can see, the lines are very close to those of the Osiris, which was suposed to be the next generation of liberty dreadnaught. Extremely modern, some models are rumoured to sport a cloaking device.

Um the Venator-Star Destroyer came to mind...

What about that little dip before the Osiris Arcs? Maybe incorporate a vertical take off and landing there?


Also about the Order; They are made for "Extreme-Penny-Pinching-Cheapness"
They made the Anubis for dirt scratch... And while it isn't exactly super-awesome its rather good and gets the job done.

Xing are we able to have a size comparison between some other ships?
Maybe VHF, Bomber, BS, your Carrier?
(I presume a carrier is the biggest class?)

IMO...it looks fat..........but the design is good..
