Because everyone seems to ignore the question asked before: Where are they going to get the resources to develop the ships and then build them? The Gaians are a small faction when compared to some of the heavy-hitters of Sirius so... heh... break the lore much?

indeed, how can a bounch 'o university hippies make a warship.... i know sairs is helping, and kusari too, but they cant possibly have enough resources to spare to make BOTH a cruiser/destroyer class AND a gunboat.... its just too little "resources" that they, inRP, would be able to gather

no worries - gaians extract raw materials out of the corpses of gaian wildlife - using a sophisticated method of boiling and some secret ingredients.

for real - these are a projection of an ongoing process of "what things might look like..." - and it appears i ll need to write stuff like "these are not going to be added into the game" more boldly.

everyone knows that gaians will not get any type of larger warships. - at least not until some groundbreaking changes are done to the factions as a whole.

anyway - these ships were meant to be next generation BHG warships for the rather retro looking current ones ( except the mako ) - they just happened to become larger versions of the gaian VHF ( as seen in my current sig ) - so they are now presented as gaian warships.

and its really not necessary to discuss logic or resource gathering here.

i vote for a size 7 red colored font screaming "THIS ISNT FOR ADDING TO THE MOD, KAY?" to get the message through better.:D

I agree with the Bounty Hunter similarities, but the first ship also seems to have a slight hint of GMG in it, doesn't it?

I wonder what these would look like coloured...

Not Gaian.
These look like better versions of the BHG ships, really.

Jinx designed the GMG bomber and the Gaian vessels and the BHG vessels and plenty of others too. The first two seem to share many design properties.

These ships look grand, I wouldn't say they really look that great though. They are just a bit too thin at the moment.

As next gen ships, they should keep some body to them I think.

' Wrote:these are of course not to be put in the game as regular ships in this shape or any altered shape - that should be crystal clear.

the cruiser follows vanilla lines by adding "stuff" to it. - so it adds a copy of the bulk section in a reversed manner - and six more engines - making it appear a lot heavier. oh - and it also gets an observation lounge - cause.... everyone loves observation lounges.

on a serious note - the ships i wish to replace in 4.86 are already uploaded, so there s not much to do - until balancing and bugfixing starts.


do i sense a ME 2 reference there regarding lounges?:D

also, theres actually quite a bit to do, just not much regarding ship design. im not sure if i have your correct skype (infact, i have like 2 versions of it), but if you get time, log on, and you'll be able to see what needs doing.
