Feedback on mod, and weapons.tb
Ok, All Hands To War has several mods, as many know... Well... heres one i want feedback on. You should note it uses the Aten POF, as most of my MOD's are simply texture changes or table hacks...

(sorry abut the length)(the Anohs turret issimmilar to the Terran heavy Turret)

I would like feedback...

Code: [Select]

$Name: PVC Anohs
$Short name: VCruise3
$Species: Vasudan
+Tech Description:
The Anohs class cruiser was designed when the Vasudans engineers were experimenting with new forms of fusion drives. They installed a meson component into the reactor core of an Aten cruiser. The 'Mutual Annhialation' caused by quarks and anti-quarks, increased the reactor output by 750%. This amount of energy was first routed into weapons, creating a large beam-like field of energy originating from a particle emitter. These weapons were thought to have great potential, but the lack of heavy damage, and a two minute powerup stage rendered this weapon useless. The energy was then routed into propulsion, but caused the engines to burn out far too often. Energy was cut back, untill the Aten was almost 3 times faster than factory standards (25m/s). The extra energy was routed back into the weapons, so that each turret had the energy reserves to; fire weapons found only on the largest ships, and increase the rate of fire.
These components were installed into a set of Aten cruiser hulls. The armor was lightened to regain some of the lost manuverability. This cruiser was then rechristened the PVC Anohs. The Anohs was deployed near the end of the Great War, shortly after Vasuda prime was decimated. It was disabled by shivan fighters from the SD Tantalus while engaging the destroyer. It was rescued by the GTD Minnow while the Minnow was en route to the Sol system in pursuit of the Bastion's battlegroup. IT was sent to Laramis, to the new R&D station for repairs and other changes. The GTA and PVE secretly covered up for Atens being sent to Laramis one at a time, to be redesigned as a copy of the Anohs. The Anohs was never intended to be produced from scratch in construction yards, for fear that the HOL would get their hands on a set of plans. For this reason, all Anohs' are equipped with both a heavily sheilded escape pod, and a foolproof self-destruct. THe escape pod sheilds are able to withstand almost all damage of the explosion even at close range. The self-destruct can also be triggered when the escape pod enters subspace.
Because of their light armor, the Anohs will always be found in groups of three or more. If the meson components in the reactor mix violently, the resulting blast will rip apart anything of medium or small size within three Kilometers.
Alone, the Anohs should be considered a Class B threat. In a group of three, it should be cosnsidered a Class A threat. Should any ship encounter more than four Anohs'; they should begin immediate evacuation, and/or leave the area immediately.

I can't risk a re-install, because FS1 disk 1 is acting all weird...

Anyone, Please!?

I fixed the TBL problem with a reinstall, and the CD problem and am burning 3 backup copies of each... I still need feedback, and will have the Anohs Turret TBL listing shortly for review...

... .......... Okay, ..... you *weakened* the hull of the aten? :wtf:

Now it has merely 2000 more hitpoints that the Fenris, that thing is going to die very quickly in battle.

And 6 of the same weapon... 6 weapons similar to the Terran Huge Turret?  That doesn't seem very good, unless this new weapon fire much faster and has a higher velocity than the THT.  Shouldn't this thing have some antifighter beams?  Like the original Aten?

But on the up side, it goes 55 mps.  bombers'll havva tough time catching up to it.  But heavy assault ships will lay waste the PVC Anohs.

i think this ship needs something...

post that weapons.tbl entry, maybe that'll change my mind.
Rayquaza?¿

IISC Those are FS1 tables. Why on earth (or in space for that matter) are Vasudans putting meson bomb parts in their ships if it hasn't been invented yet? Unless this FS1 campaign takes place in the FS2 era.
I have big plans, now if only I could see them through.

No, it was a meon component, not a bomb...
Spoiler:
not purposley a bomb... :D

And it has the early designs of beams, but it is a FS1 ship, for a FS1 camp. in the post FS1 months... (see link in sig)
