I LOVE Space Empires IV Ships!

The Terran ships are appalling. Ugly, dull and difficult to distinguish from one another. Plus the runways on the carriers look more like stupid sticky-out things then runways unless you know what you're looking at.

The Eee are okay. They're interesting because they have a fundamentally different design from anything else, but also rather dull as they're simply a series of big blobs with a progressively larger number of smaller sattelites.

Got to love the Phong colony ship, though. O_o

Someone needs to make egg-like ships for a dinosaur race.

Sure, it's in the attached file. I just used a paint program to adjust the color.

I really am beginning to wonder how many times I'm going to have to apologize for the Terrans. I really don't know what went wrong there. But I'm working on updating a new Terran shipset which is a lot more in line with what I was going for originally. You can see the latest addition here:

Perhaps a stickied topic at the top of the board, written in ten mile high letters of flame would help?

Joke.

Stock sets I like include the Amonkrie, Jraenar, and Xiati.

I kinda liek the Terran set, the body could have used more 'umph" in it, but otherwise it was okay.

My favorites, in order are:
1) Cryslonite (but I changed the color from pink to green).
2) Ukratal
3) XiChung
4) Phong
5) Jraenar

I usually avoid the dark greyish ships that are hard to see (on my lousy monitor), like the Xiati, Praetorian and Piundon.

My favorite non-standard races are:
1) Tylmai
2) Sethulkra
3) United Flora
4) Aquilaeian
5) Pyrochette
