Collection of 4 ships

[Guest]

Dug around my computer a bit and found these.

Figured with each house getting an LSF-Equivalent faction, maybe each one (Kempeitai, BDM, BIS), including LSF could probably use a ship specific to each group.

And with each being more of a special ops type of group, maybe a ship design that didnt follow whats normally seen from each house would probably fit.

Ship 1 - No Texture (For: Um, any ideas?) Vertices: 1219, Triangles: 1170

I like them, but for some negative thoughts:

4th is basically same as Bayonet which is already in and the Liberty one doesn't fit liberty for me (it has the pointy Upholder style, which is quite non-liberty by itself).

I do like the first one very much though, it might be used to replace some of the imports, Marauder comes to my mind or Raven's Talon.

Ships looks familiar to those from starlancer.

They are good but not for LSF/LPI... stone me for that (I dont care) but Liberty have more ships than anyone else and add them another 4? why? And they dont look like rest of ships made in liberty.

Threre are many factions without own fighter shipline like Zoners, Unioners, Bundshuch, Junkers etc. etc. Why dont give those ships to them? In my opinion they fit mostly to Unioners if I compare them to they single unique ship (coming with 4.85) "Arbeiter".

Edit: third ship is better looking Raven Claw andshould be nice replace for that (in my opinion) ugly import.

Negative Thoughts:
Bayonet? Dont think i've seen that one. Oh well *Forum Search*
EDIT: After seeing the Bayonet, i find as much similarity between Ship4 i posted, as I do with the Thor RH Bomber. (Not meaning to sound rude or anything, Mjolnir.)

Kambei you once again show your worth... (not being stoned for "They are good but not for LSF/LPI" but instead, for "add them another 4? why?")

Ship 1 - No Texture (For: Um, any ideas?)
Ship 2 - No Texture (For: Kempeitai?)
Ship 3 - No Texture (For: LSF?)
Ship 4 - No Texture (For: Buro der Marineintelligenz?)

Take a look at the parentheses. Only 1 i mentioned as LSF. The others i noted as possible ships for the other house's LSF Equivalent faction (Kempeitai, BDM, BIS)

---------------------------------------------

Positive Thoughts:
Good to hear, as for the thing about the Upholder
"The Upholder is by far one of the most advanced bomber of Sirius, supported by decades of Libertonian military technologies. A real masterpiece of modernity, the Upholder is slim, agile and maximise its profile to avoid interception."

Sure none of the ships look like the other ships of that house, but thats what comes with changes in technology, changes in ship design. Which is what, i believe, led to how the Upholder was designed.

Not to mention the fact that they're Special Ops ships (simillar to how the RC is right now for LSF), how good would a covert op ship be if it was clearly recognized as a Rheinland, Bretonian, Kusarian, or Libertonian ship within hostile space.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Found a 5th model on my comp that might be another decent one, its supposed to be a fighter but looks more like a freighter in appearance. I'll add it later.

[Cosmos]

the third ship looks perfect for an LSF bomber, it looks like that slipstream thingie, but its more bulky.
anyone agree?

Well, with the Upholder taking that spot, Cosmos....

Any thoughts on those ships being SHFs? that class is a bit lacking in choices being limited to Kiith and Spatial

[Capt. Henry Morgan]

Those all look like imports from Tachyon: The Fringe. A rather good game that one was. I see 1 GalSpan ship, 1 Bora ship, and 2 NPC ships.

I thought we decided that no more imports would go into the mod?

EDIT:
Removed some stuff that came out wrong, and kinda sounded rude.

well, nothings past you, Thacker.

But even if they werent imports, no matter what the ship design, its based off something.

Bayonet i believe was said to be out of Starlancer or something. But thats going in.
But in the end i think it just comes down to if itd fit.

[Cosmos]

slipstream? i meant raven claw, and theres already a LSF bomber being added? o.0

damn, that ship looks kool -.-
