is that a CW, or not??

I think the consensus last time this topic was brought up was that the big ship was a (url="http://"http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/~dsghosh/evosite/shipyard2.html#vfrigate")Voinian Frigate(/url), and that the fighters were (url="http://"http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/~dsghosh/evosite/shipyard1.html#uefighter")UE Fighters(/url). Sure, they don't look much like you'd think they would -- but it's not hard to imagine the ships would look different in 3D.

No, no, no. I assume you are refering to the ship underneath the title. That has got to be a Crescent Warship, with crescent fighters under it. No human nor Voinian ship is shaped like that, nor is there one that is solid blue. It must be a Crescent Warship.

I dunno I haven't seen the screen in a while. I'm just passing on what others said in the last thread.
Methinks that it is a CW as well. However, in my opionit doesn't resemble the game version very much. I guess those fighters would have to be CF's but they reely don't look like them at all IMO.
------------------ All your base are belong to us.
It's the Voinian Cruiser, if you're talking about the loading screen.
The fighters look like Voinian heavy fighters on their side (others are UE fighters) and the ship is at an angle.
------------------ Jude's left. sniff We'll miss you/are missing you! sniff sniff
Why couldn't it just be an earlier model Voinian ship?
(This message has been edited by Blackdog (edited 04-18-2001).)
I've always seen it as nothing but a Turncoat and accompanying Kraits. And the other has to be a UE Cruiser and of course accompanying Fighters. I really can't see the first as a Crescent Warship - if nothing else, the humans haven't had contact with such ships. And definitely not as a Voinian ship - it's blue and looks far too streamlined.
Anyway, if we're gonna spend too much time analysing it: I don't recognise the planet there :).. and the missile hardly looks like a hunter one - more like a needle if anything.. and the thing over to the left is... indescribable from what we know.
UE Cruiser? Really? I see it as a UE Destroyer........
It's a UE destroyer, for sure. The other ship, I have no idea. the fighters don't closely ressmble anything found in the game. the large blue-ish ship could be a CW, but again it has no real resemblance to any ship that I can think of. Also, why would the UE be attacking it if it was a crescent ship? I think that it might be a ship from some early version of the game, which was later removed.

I fixed the link. look at the ship again!
The fighters on the left are voinian fighters, for sure, and i'd bet the UE ships is a destroyer.
If the fighters are looking different, why are the UE fighters so recognizable?
You're not thinking about the angle.
It's a Voinian Cruiser. I'm fairly positive.
The Voinian Cruiser has that curved thing at the sides, just it's more pronounced there.
.............MAYBE the Dreadnought....
Those things on the left are SO Voinian Frigates!
Lol! This isn't getting anywhere.
It's a turncoat IMO. That's the only ship that resembles the picture even a bit.

OY YOI YOI!!!
People poeple people! From what I know, the spalsh screen was made BEFORE the game was completed. That ship is not a turncoat, it is not a voinian frigate, it is not a CW. IT NEVER MADE IT INTO THE GAME!
Look! In the lower left! BROWN frigates!?! And on the right! WHAT is that UE vessal!? The UE Carrier has four fins, UE Cruiser five, but THIS one clearly has three! It's too big to be a destroyer....
And the UE fighters wings are a dull reddish brown, where in the game they are bright crimson.
See? All those vessals were modified after the splash screen was made.
Thank you, A bucking moron

Alien 5672 is right. That is what the concensus was the last time this topic came up. However, this probably would not have even be asked if we still had the search button. Where is it? Why did it go? Will it ever come back? I would normally search to find this in a past topic but you see that is my point.
------------------ Why are there no maroon ships?
Can anyone tell me if this i an improvement or not? if not, at least the ships are recognizeble.
<hmmm. I thought i fixed the silver'yness of the destroyer and fighters...>
No, that silvery look is neat. It makes sense too, since the explosion would be casting light on the ships. With regards to the image, cool.
