Capital Ship Designs

Apr 09, 2005 Chikira link
The New Capital Ship System, is working rather well but there is one problem, each nation has the same ship with the same colors,

I would like to suggest that the current design for a Capital ship be the Itani Cap ship and turn all the colors a brigther blue.

As for the other two Nations, we need some kind of design for there own ship, Right now im sketching out some designs for a UIT capital ship similar to the Itani but more rounded and a few different things. I'll post my designs as soon as I can.

Also for the Serco, we need something more war-like, Maybe a ship with 6 wings, 3 on each side, Like the X wing but with a wing in the middle. Ok course these are just Ideas, And ideas come a dime a dozen in the gaming world.

I'd also like to add smaller ships about half the size of the Capital ships, as their escorts, they would also have man-able turrets.

Also I've noticed that alot of the players seem to be getting upset at the long amount of time it takes for the Itani Ship to arrive, it has to jump 4 more systems than the other two ships, I suggest moving the Itani Ship to Jallik that way the travel time can be cut in-half.

Also these ships should be fly-able by players, the first one to dock with the ship will have the option of flying the ship to Sedina if he wishes, However they must fly to Sedina within the hour or face some kind of faction penalty.

If that does not work then allow the ships to move during the time they are in combat.

Also the turrets are to easily destroyed, they must be fixable in some way or be able to be re-built over a certain period of time.

When the capital ship sustans heavy Damage it should have a part or two explode, like a wing or the nose.

Overall if the majority of these Ideas are put into gameplay I think the Capital ships will be much more enjoyable and it should fill vendetta with some nice new content.

On a side note, The capital ships have to have a purpose, but im sure your already working on that
