My Newest Ship (Battleship Added)

This is a Terrenesi Dreadnought, it took a lot of work to properly shape the main hull and to add the attachments in the right place but I think it's a good ship so far.

Please tell me what you think.

(p.s my Terrenesi shipset is almost completed it'll hopefully be done by next month).

Its a unique design. Defently alien looking. The color is a bit odd, but fitting. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

This is the "fluff" Version of the dreadnought, of course the stats in the Game are going to be differnt hehe:

Sovereign Power:
Class: Sentient Dreadnought
Weapons:
1 medium power QDC
6 SPPS generators
315 medium pulse cannons
200 heavy pulse cannons
80 torpedo tubes [all heavy]
1,800 PDTs
18 heavy Phased shard cannons
20 light phased shard cannons
Length: 9.75km
Width: 6.5km
Height: 5 km
Crew: 71,250
Troops: 5,000 [capacity when full: 25,000]
Armor: Ultra Heavy
Shields: Ultra Heavy
Speed: Poor
Maneuverability: Very Poor
Carries
1,500 combat drones
450 fighters
520 dropships
200 breaching pods
20 frigates
8 destroyers
4 Vigilantes
Desc: The Dreadnought is indeed a major power in and of its self, these warships have been known to destroy entire small fleets all by themselves, and in one on one combat the Dreadnought is something not to be taken lightly. These mighty warships carry two entire squadrons of Frigates, and two wings of destroyers, these frigates and destroyers can often form squadrons that are used in deep range strike operations. The Dreadnoughts also carry a flight of Vigilante attack ships, which just increases the deadly power of this mighty warship. Even with all their power the Dreadnoughts usually stay with a full battle group of two or three battle cruisers and dozens of destroyers and frigates. Dreadnoughts are also untraditional ships by most species standards because most of them will be in service for thousands of years and will carry multiple generations on board. There are dreadnoughts in service today that are six thousand years old, and that carry thousands of “children” aboard them, these “children” will most likely serve aboard the same dreadnought as their parents and grandparents until either they are transferred or the ship is killed in battle.

I think it's a little underpowered. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Wow, that's a HUGE ship... So this ship carries a number of frigates and destroyers inside it, just like a carrier carries fighters? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif

Yep that's right, plus the Terrenesi capital ships are sentient beings (NOT Articial they are ACTUALLY sentient beings):

(my Terrenesi have been around for 8 years in various stages of my developing them (from thinking they'd be cool, to writing about them in story form to writing them into boardwars) so NO it is not inspired by Andromeda OR Farscape, especially since they used to be living beings that were genetically engineered by the same race that created the Terrenesi so please don't compare them).

Here is my Terrenesi battleship

(each different "Clasification" of ship has it's own unique color pattern as follows:

Super Capital= SSD (Super Sentient Dreadnought), SDN (Sentient Dreadnought) Golden blue (Like the dread)

Capital= Sentient Ship of the Line (battleship in SE terms, Battlecruiser in Terrenesi), Cruiser, Light Cruiser. Greyblue with blue shine striping (like the bship)

Sub Capital: Destroyer, Frigate, Escort. Pale gray with blue undertone, red highlighting.

There is a reason for the variation in colors but I'm not explaining it here as I am hoping to keep it under my hat until my mod is done http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
