These are the ships of the pirates on the galactic fringe. All of this is OOC, because some of them are, IC, still secret.

Gorgon class Heavy Carrier (Currently Totenkopf/Death's Head only)
http://www.kuattech.com/Gorgon.png
Superheavy cannon with two fire settings:
1 - Plasma Discharge Cannon - creates a mini-nuclear blast that will immolate target usually.
2 - EM Discharge Cannon - Fires an immense charge of static electricity that will disrupt shields, or anything else that uses energy fields.
Both take about 6 minutes to recharge.

6 Capship Missile Launch Tubes
20 Rail Cannons
40 Fighters (Scimitars)
It is about 1240m long.

Tugger class Freighter/Light Cruiser (Totenkopf/Death's Head Variant)

8 Capship Missile Launch Tubes
8 Rail Cannon
4 Fighters (Scimitars)

Tugger class Freighter/Light Cruiser (Gottzorn/God's Wrath Variant}

Advanced Cloaking Device (optical and sensor)
CANNOT fire while cloaked. Doing so would implode the fusion reactor.
4 Capship Missile Launch Tubes
4 Rail Cannon
3 Fighters (Wraith)

Scimitar class Medium Fighter
http://www.kuattech.com/scimitar.png
2 Meson blasters - optimized against armor

Light Sensor Scrambler - will disrupt sensors tracking the fighter unless the fighter is firing it's weapon
2 EM Blasters - optimized to knock out electrical subsystems, but will also shear armor and disrupt shields.

OOC: okay... get better pictures and more people will look at it...
27-10-2003, 16:09
OK, let's see YOU model better ships.

OOC: Your modeling them, why? And what did you use to model them?
27-10-2003, 16:25
Im using Milkshape, since it, to me, is better than 3ds or Lightwave for lowpoly models.

OOC: Interesting... I've never used Milkshape before...

Everything in this thread is OOC, no need to type OOC.

okay... fine...

The only problem that I have is that your models are a little too blocky. If you can remedy that problem, I'm sure, you'll get more view. In addition, if you open a store, selling this stuff, you'll also get a lot of opinions...

Well, it is PIRATE equipment, used by pirates :o

Im working on deblockifying somewhat. Roundish stuff uses lots of polys, which is bad for MS3D.

are you sellin the gorgon class heavy battle ships, and if yes for what price? and if you are sellin the ships for a good price I'll tell you later I'll have 5

those things are no match for a Victory class Star Destroyer or a Imperial Class stardestroyr which is better
28-10-2003, 05:46
Lokas - nope
Wyland - Too bad they are copyrighted by Lucasarts. And usually it is spelled 'Star Destroyer', not 'stardestroyr'.

Actually, many space nations here use Star Wars tech. I'm against it (I love SW, but I think using their ships shows a lack of imagination, and they're not that good), but it still happens.

And an Orion class Destroyer would blow the hell out of a Gorgon :lol:

Too bad a Gorgon is a carrier :) Of course, if you pick up my courier... you might learn about more pirate projects...

So's the Orion. If I remember correctly, the Gorgon carries 40 fighters. The Orion has 48. So, it's bigger (not that important), faster, more powerful, and has more fighters.

I wonder who'd win in a fight?

i use Star Destroyers all the time :P and i agree with Wayland. i belive it CAN beat one of your ships easily

Too bad star destroyers are easily knocked out by ion cannons, as The Empire Strikes Back proved.
