Default Re: New race style available for your pleasure

Taera:

1. I was trying to get some kind of Design lineage, something that was same for all sizes something that was kept constant. I looked at some Sci-fi ships and real naval ships and the thing that they almost keep constant was the Bridge. Almost always the same so I thought I should do the same. (although I may correct it)

2. On the Sizing, I recall that when some people sized the ship graphics kinda in proportions, they couldn't see it because it was too small. Such case in point: the Sallegan ships below Cruiser. If you look at the Jreanar ships, it seems small because it's narrow but it has the same length in the image than a cruiser. So although I wanted to size it proportionable, I sacrificed it in order to make other people notice Coalition Drones.

3. The "heavier" Versions are only a slight variations from the original hulls. I did this since I thought it was resonable to only make slight modifications into the hull Such as extra guns, extra armour, extra space so I added slight almost non-noticable parts into the Original hull. I just didn't think it was right to add a whole new wing, missle bays, sensor arrays, and then some for a 50KT change.

But I'll get around to editing after I write the AI files for the darn thing.

Thanks to all that pointed out the errors.

Edit: I should take Gandalf's advice and use Preview...
