It looks rather similar to the ship from 'Firefly' so yes, a transport. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif I could claim it's a shipset for a race of intelligent bacteria, that would explain the size difference..

Thanks for the comments, I'll think I'll make the ship a transport or carrier.

I emailed Aaron about this very question a few days ago, remembering a news post on SEnet saying the shipset specs should be released in July, and he said he'd have them out sometime this coming week! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Hmm. No news yet.
Or maybe there is: I visited the good old universal shipyards earlier today and found this amazing shipset preview by John Beech:
http://mkv25.net/USy/se5.php
Not only is this a truely amazing shipset, it also gives some clues to relative sizes between ships and the different models that a shipset needs

We'll have to take into account that this was posted somewhere in 2005, and since SeV has been in development for quite some time since it's probably outdated and likely inaccurate and incomplete. But John Beech is on the development team if I recall corectly, and he comments that it's the "full sitting fleet of models". Anyhow it's probably the best information we have, if we can guess what type of ship each model represents..
The set has less ships than standard SEIV shipsets, but if i recall correctly shipsets were going to be smaller for SEV.

The models you'll need for stock:

Ships:
Frigate - Destroyer - Light Cruiser - Cruiser - Battleship - Dreadnought - Baseship* - Carrier**

Colony Ship - Freighter**

Bases:
Space Station - Starbase

Units:
Fighter** - Troop** - Satellite** - Weapons Platfrom** - Mine** - Drone**

* - Uses starbase image if baseship image not available
** - Come in S/M/L sizes, but vehicle is scaled if specific S/M/L not available

You'll need several colour portraits (small, large) and a top-down b&w image for the slot layouts. You'll also need to make slot layouts for your ships as well, like in Star Fury. Lastly, you need flag/shield race images, race and population portraits, and some mini ship icons for lists etc. I can't recall all the dimensions off-hand, sorry. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

I should also mentioned they are specific Organic or Crystalline versions for all the ships/vehicles listed below. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/stupid.gif
