Re: Might of the Coalition!
Just a note on the bridge there, something a little more than a hexagonal prism would be nice, just to ensure that it looks like a bridge and not a (set of) polygon(s). Though I do love your ships.

Re: Might of the Coalition!
I remember Starlancer! Haven't played that in ages! These models are looking really good Sarafan; agree with some previous points about moving details like those hexagons on the Cyclone to a normal map, but to model those on as you have done does show a real dedication. Your a darn good modeller to boot too! :) I think you do have the Cyclone the right way up btw, from what little i remember of it.

...although I hope to do them all, the Alliance has only a few ships that are good looking, like the Kestrel and Inteprid, the rest is ugly as hell...
:( ...but...what about...

Re: Might of the Coalition!
I always wondered if it was possible to kill al-rahan.

I think its possible but I'm not sure, this time I fired two Jackhammers on him and he still jumped out.

Yeah, I ran out of ideas of what to place there, thanks.

Thanks! The Yamato is one of the exceptions I said earlier, it looks good, its funny, it always reminded me of the Rodger Young from Starship Troopers:

The ugly alliance ships are the Washington and the Bremen (that one is just a slab of metal).

CS Ramases, cool design, looks real low-tech but effective.

Re: Might of the Coalition!
CS Krasnaya. One of two ships of its class in the game, the other being the Kozlov which you face when taking down the 2nd coalition fleet, both are old warhorses by the game's description (75 years old) and they certainly look old. When you face the Kozlov you can compare its size to see its as big as the Varyag but nowhere near as efficient. When you face the Krasnaya, its far too easy too disable it since its systems are so large and visible (especially the engines).

The mission where you face the Krasnaya is a particularly difficult one if you want to get a rank promotion on it because of distance. You're escorting the Reliant, the Krasnaya jumps in quite a distance from it, you have to go intercept its fighters while the Reliant shoots down the torpedoes then you have to rush all the way back to the Reliant because 3 bombers show up in 3 locations and target the Reliant with their torpedoes, you can only let the ship be hit by one or else it'll take too much damage and you can kiss the promotion goodbye. As if thats not enough after that you have to go all the way back to the Krasnaya to disable it quickly before it jumps out and then finally kill every fighter in the area again.

Of course you have to do all of this by yourself because your wingmates are the epitome of incompetence. :banghead:
