Shipset Idea

Thanks muchly, Deathstalker. Right now my Moon Base Alpha forces are in a full out war with the White Comet Empire. Fleets of missile armed Eagles battling it out with Cometine ships. Nifty.

Atrocities, the three Star Blazers shipsets should still be under the mods directory, but may be back a page or so after the more recent postings. (And yes, the Earth Defense Force ships look just like flying naval warships.)

Cheers

Nice Space 1999 ships. I remember a Walkie Talkie toy I had growing up that looked like the communicators they used on the show.

I'm pretty pumped. My local video rental store has a couple of the Star Blazers video tapes available for rental. Thank you for the Star Blazer shipset.

Anyone ever see an anime series called "Legend of the Galactic Heroes"? It hasn't been released commercially here in the US, so fan subtitled Versions are the only real translations available. There might be enough ship types for both the Galactic Empire and the Free Planets Alliance to make a shipset, with maybe using one of the unique flagships to fill in the heavier ship types.

Though I wouldn't bother trying to match the fleets in the series. The 5000 ship maximum you can set in SE4 would make up a half-strength fleet in the Alliance Navy.

How many of you have ever played Wing Commander? WC IV was a great game with some damn nice movie quality acting and action. Too bad they did not take that concept with them to the big screne. Anywhoo, WC ships or for that matter, FreeSpace ships would make an awsome race set. The sheithans kick ***.
