Attention People of NationStates! The Federation of the UIGC, A member of Crossroads Inc. Has finished production of an all new, never before seen line of Starships for military needs.

New Systems;

Battle Bunkers:
The Battle Bunker Weapon System is a
phaser type offensive attack. The base
or uni-bunker is a simple phaser (much
like the StarTrek ones. A med bunker
is simple 4 uni phasers, and can fire 2 at
once, or a short blast of all 4. A Mega
Bunker has over 16 phasers and can fire
4 at a time or a short blast of 8 at once.

Reflex Cannon:
Not quite living up to its’ name. The UIGC
Manufactured Reflex Cannon Is still a truly
Devastating piece of artillery. It can fire a beam
Over 10 miles long, disintegrating ‘almost’ anything
in its path. Of course the extreme energy use
of the cannon restricts its firing time to once
every 4min.

Weapon Systems
(to act as a ‘Key’ for the Ship Pictures)
((see main image link))

Ships:

Corvette.
This small quick and nimble ship acts as a front line picket ship, to engage other smaller craft, or strike in groups to harass large Capital ships. It can land and take off much faster on a planets surface then can the large Destroyer, making it ideal in quickly deploying a ground force anywhere on a planet.
((see main image link))
12,000,000,000

Destroyer:
The larger, more heavily built Destroyer acts as the primary support ship for a UIGC fleet. The heavy amount of Battle Bunkers on its surface makes it a good Anti-Fighter ship as its speed is enough ot give chase to large groups of fighters and target them. Its three Plasma turrets, also give it enough firepower to challenge large scale Ships.
((see main image link))
25,000,000,000

Crusier:
The Big Guns of the UIGC Forces. The Heavy Cruiser packs an incredible amount of firepower. It is designed as an Artillery ship to strike at an enemy fleet from a long distance. While almost all of its launches are forward facing, Missiles can be independently targeted via the ships computer to give chase to any target. Too big to land on a planet, it can none the less carry a large amount of Cargo if needed.
((see main image link))
80,000,000,000

Battleship:
The massive lead ship of the UIGC Fleet forces, this warship, over 1000 meters in length can easily engage any other equally sized warship. The ship, bristling with battle Bunkers, is most efficient in its attack up close next to enemy ships. Getting ‘down and dirty; with other Captial ships, it is able to deal the most damage in the quickest amount of time. However, when the chance presents itself, it can utilize its most devastating weapon. The Reflex Cannon, built into the nose of the ship, can assault ships from a great distance, slicing through multiple ships at a time.

Those are pretty cool designs!

You should try some 3d modelling.

Thanks, but alas, My Humble Mac has no programs that advanced, And im not sure how easy it would be to translate my designs into 3D, they are very rounded and organically shapped, and most 3D modlers deall best with flat, boxy shapes.

Nonsense, man! I could render those

Update Bump:
With the growth of Future-Tech RPs and shops around I would think there would be a market these days

True, but most people perfer to use their own designs.

Yes, however considering most ship designs in here are rips of either StarTrek, StarWars, or B5 starships, I would think competly new Ship designs and systems would be a breath of fresh air. They may not be 3D modled, but they are new.

OOC:
I am actually surprised no one has jumped on this! (UIGC do you have 'Protoculture' ? Or are you just using the name 'Reflex Cannon' for coolness sakes?"

IC:
I will purchase one of each for testing purposes, your ships seem interesting in concept and my nation wishes to see how they hold up under testing with other starships.
