Here is my Harbinger class Battleship. First game I've gotten to large hulls so I was pretty excited.

This particular model has 2 warp engines and 4 Harpoon 3 missles giving a 12 missle attack. Fleet up 3 of these bad boys and look out!

Some early Designs for the Terran Fleet (I'm not very good yet, simple designs; these took me between 10 and 20 minutes to make.)

Liberty Fast Freighter Class


Gator Fast Transport Class


Dredgenaught Fast Constructor Class


Vulture MkII Missile Fighter


Pincer MkI Laser Fighter


Napoleon MkIII Gunship

Thanks for the kind words.

When I got the game, the ship design feature did not play into my decision at all - I didn't think I'd really care about it, didn't think it would add much to a TBS game... WRONG!!! I have surprisingly found it to be one of the most fun parts of the game! I luv it!

The interface needs a bit of work, but the concept is well thought out IMHO - and surprisingly your designs have a real affect on the game itself - they are not just eye candy!

I stumbled across this simple design for a super fast colony ship ("The Spider Colony") and really liked it. I might do a whole series based on bugs, if I get inspired enough.

"BUGS!!!! The place is crawling with Bugs Mr. Rico!!!"



A Starship Troopers mod perhaps?

Excellent! That's what I'm going for...care to do that bug in the photo for me?

Hey, I may be somewhat of a critic when it comes to GalCiv2, but I also completely loved the shipyard .

Tonight's additions to the Terran Fleet.

Sentry Class Long Range Spy Ship


This game I'm trying to go for a Ringworld-Known Space(Larry Niven)/2001/Star Trek hybrid theme in my design.

BTW Yin as soon as I finish up this game, I'll start one as the Thalens and try to post up some Bug Ships a la Heinlein! But here is an attempt to get some 'buggy' influence within the design framework I already have built as the Terrans...

Sprite MKII Long Range Scout

[Solver]

A cookie to the first one to design something like a Battlestar .

[yin26]

oldstatesman: I see the bug influence indeed. Nice work!

That's odd... I can't see oldstatesman's pictures.

Hmm.. I have a paid premier photobucket account that should allow unlimited bandwdth for viewing - I'll check into it if others have this issue...let me know.
