its more or less only a "concept" - but all the discussion about the order and their lack of powerful warships... - i thought about what they really need - and its most certainly not a dreadnaught ( even if the difference isn t really there in disco )
a small assault carrier suits their role much much more than a huge battleship. - so, i modified the osiris like the japaneese modified their freighters in ww2 - that is .... stick a flight deck on top of it. - while i like it sort of, the size and the scaling is a problem. - of course an anubis is too large compared to an osiris, even if that one would be scaled up significantly.
anyway ..... enjoy... :
i ll texture it and submit it nonetheless - just for the fun of it:). igiss can decide if he wants to fly around with it himself or even add it, i don t care much. - and who knows, maybe we find a unique purpose for carrier some day.... .
features:):
- wings with additional engines to move the much larger mass than the original osiris
- flight deck ( that looks a bit much like a gun, but ... it looks a lot different with texture )
- a lot of details on it. - i tried to have it as detailed as the original. - i haven t achieved the same amount yet, but had to stop at some time, cause it was allready a pain to texture it.
*i got a textured version of it, but it doesn t look good yet, i have to convert a few more of the original textures still and adjust some.

Now this looks realy amazing!
No bad ideas anyone , this is purely a Order Battleship! Design by and for us!
Realy good , I like the carrier idea better.
from what jinx has said, chances are it will be more on the level of a battlecruiser, not a battleship. More speed and manuverability at the cost of superthick hull plating and ridiculous amounts of weaponry.
This is everything I want to see in a Carrier. And if my memory serve's me right - Carrier is something stronger then Dreadnaught ( anolog with Liberty). That thing Jinx made is not something that looks like BC it is indeed a heavily modified version.
i m not 100% happy with the launch tube - prolly gonne remove it and make another one. - i very much like the first aircraft carriers that were landing decks on big ships - and not much more... but if its a carrier, the launch tube must at least look less complicated than the usual docking bay... and this one still doesn t look like it.
that ship is overflowing with modelled details, not rediculously much, but there isn t too much room for much much more. ( its allmost scratching the 10k polygons - thats not really a problem, but if you have 3 - 4 of those on one screen, things can get choppy )
so the deck is not final - and seriously - i will submit it, but i don t think it has a chance to be added. but igiss can keep it for future plans maybe - in case the RP of the order goes on. - and some day allows such a ship.
