Default Shadow Fleet - PUBLISHED

This is a work in progress. Please note that if I went with the actual dark look of the shadow ships, you would not be able to see them in the game. As it stands now, you migh not be able to now.

I think he means the purple weapons(?) glow.

But I could tell this was an AT shipset straight off, you do have a certain style of design. Most of the ships are scaled up or down versions of on hull shape. This isn't a criticism, all the ships look good and it make the fleet consistent, it's just a comment.

Most of AT's fleets "build" on each other. There is a consistency that makes the fleet look like they were designed with previous ships in mind. Looks good, AT.

I like them a LOT. Especially the Dreaudnoughts, Juggernought and Col-ships.

Where did you get the station-designs ? I saw them in a Armada 2 mod, but now that you used them as well, i guess they are canon ?

Please come up with some good troops and weapon platforms, and please dont use the same weapon platforms you usually do

Compare them to the stock shipsets, and you will see Atrocities is doing his shipsets exactly the way all stock-ships are done. The different ships of each shipset are usually only bigger and have some extensions. I would like to have each shipset with truly unique ships/pictures, but that would probably multiply the amount of time necessary to create just a single set

I like them very much, especially this "wave"-texture.
It gives them a sort of undefined shape which I find very fitting.
