Ehm- While we could need some reeeal powerhorses in our game that all the other factions fear, this would make for a dull fight where 40 xtremely fast fighters buzz around their targets while the almost invincible cruiser has one beam weapon hitting one target at a time. The play should be more liquid, more flowing. I think you should reconsider the stats of your vessels and we will se when the beta testing starts what we will do to balance this. The Ancients have no long-range weapons whatsoever, the Legion relies on its artillery to defeat an opponent. This is two radically different enemies that allow for interesting gameplay. I mean no harm writing this, just that these stats should get rethinked, ill take a look at mine.

Same here for the stats. The fighters are ill armored and the cruiser has a weakness of range.

Thats all for now. I am at my fathers place and we have dialup, so ill include my largest Legion flagship, the UPL Destroyer another time. I also have the first United Planets Peacekeeping craft, the Patrol Boat. The UPLDestroyer is the largest and toughes vessel the Legion has at their disposal, so it has two carrier classes, and a flagship class which kicks major ass.
P.S. The Ancients next combat craft, the Mortifactor is well underway.
My previous ships have weapons and the long-range cruiser is finished. I'm going to model a planet to display my ships in gameplay.
United Planets Military Shipwrights UPDATES
Hammerhead completely rewrited and completed
Hammerhead stats 80 shields 40 armor Speed: 540 Turn: exellent Accel: exellent Guns: Max. 5 Turrets: Max. 1 (it fits on the plateu above the engines, email me to see concept art) Space: 9 tons Cargo: 0 tons Energy: 2 jumps Crew: 1 Lenght: 9m Mass: 17 tons De- ionization: Very Good (small vessel)
Hammerhead subvariants
-Fighter class 4 mil lasers -Hvy fighter class 3 mil lasers 1 impact rocket launcher*, 3 ammo 1 civilian laser -Sup Hvy Fighter class 1 Assault Cannon 1 Laser Battery 2 Mil Lasers 1 Purifier Laucher, 5 ammo -Rapid Attack variant 3 mil lasers 2 civ lasers 1 mil laser turret
Dësc (ehm this is just an idea, my English isnt all that good. Scrapped the earlier one)
The hammerhead is so named for its distinctive wing structure. As one of the fastest vessels in known space the hammerhead is such a challenging craft to pilot that a driver of older age then 50 CANNOT handle the pressure and pushing sensation of being crammed fast in a tight cockpit in 300000 kph. Dont slip, its a long way down. Its up to you whether or not this agile vessel is worth your attention, but if speed and action is your bets than this li'l beut is your choice. While inferior to its ailien counterparts the N'elian fighter (name ?) and the Ghoul, the Hammerhead is much speedier and tends to achieve target locks faster.
Bla, bla, bla. Simian out. *Just the siced up name of the original rocket launcher ------------------ This is my signature.

Can someone post a reply other than me anytime soon?
I'm sorry about my lack of posts. I will have to halt production of my part of the plug until the summer as I am now playing a high school sport and do not have time to juggle school, sports, and this. I hope you take my apology. Dougy try working on different rescources and try sending them to me if you need help editing them I'll try to work on the plug on the weekends.
Thanks, Zerak Toman
Note: We have a good team and we have the ability to do this it'll just take time.
I am losing my enthusiasm.

Don't we WILL finish and we WILL do it well. It'll just take time. As a friend of mine says, "Happy thoughts. Think happy thoughts." Just keep in mind your not the one running up 20 meter hills and back down just to do it again for 5 days a week. :frown:
