Hey! Someone deleted my post! What happened? What did I do?
------------------ To Escape Velocity: Nova and Beyond! -------------- Millennium. Its coming, prepare for it. Coming to the (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiaSW.com/games/ev/chronicles.html")EV Chronicles(/url).
The moderators (some of them) aren't as forgiving as I am. (spot the movie refrence? ) Some of them also run the RPG. Your idea wouldn't fit. When mentioned at the meeting, a general outcry resulted. Suggest you read more before thinking up stuff. I had to work alot after I came back from an "extended absence" which, while not as demanding as inventing your character, can require serious readjustment.
On another note, here are the Lerekk graphics: (url="http://"http://www.angelfire.com/scifi/nijayias/images/Lerekk1.jpg")http://www.angelfire...ges/Lerekk1.jpg(/url) (url="http://"http://www.angelfire.com/scifi/nijayias/images/Lerekk2.jpg")http://www.angelfire...ges/Lerekk2.jpg(/url)
Read my post below for the propper procedures for accessing Angelfire images.
Update: I've posted 2 more images (with actual textures ). (url="http://"http://www.angelfire.com/scifi/nijayias/images/Lerekk3.jpg")http://www.angelfire...ges/Lerekk3.jpg(/url) (url="http://"http://www.angelfire.com/scifi/nijayias/images/Lerekk4.jpg")http://www.angelfire...ges/Lerekk4.jpg(/url)
Update 2: I've used the new texture (which I like) on the Lenkk. (url="http://"http://www.angelfire.com/scifi/nijayias/images/Lenkk4.jpg")http://www.angelfire...ages/Lenkk4.jpg(/url) (url="http://"http://www.angelfire.com/scifi/nijayias/images/Lenkk5.jpg")http://www.angelfire...ages/Lenkk5.jpg(/url) (url="http://"http://www.angelfire.com/scifi/nijayias/images/Lenkk6.jpg")http://www.angelfire...ages/Lenkk6.jpg(/url) I will remind you that the Lenkk-class Barrage Destroyer isn't a typically-styled Nijayias ship. The Lerekk is closer (if you take away the very large scanning arrays for precision-aiming the missles) to the standard, but I'll make the others sleeker.

PLEASE don't do angelfire. Whenever somebody does a picture in anglefire, it just says "This image hosted by Angelfire."
------------------ "Oi, oi, oi, me got a hurt n here Oi, oi, oi, me smell a ting is near Me gonna bosh and me gonna nosh An da hurt'll dissapear"
There are 2 ways to get around that.
This is method 1:
As soon as you see the "Image Hosted by Angelfire" graphic, do this:
This is method 2:
As soon as you see the "Image Hosted by Angelfire" graphic, change the "1" at the end of the URL to 2 or vice-versa and hit enter. Then do the same to acces the other image(s).

Oh... Sorry... I didn't meant to create any problem. I just don't get all this RPG stuff (I don't even know what an RPG is) and I really don't get all this stuff about the Nijayians and Phyliodon (sp?) stuff...
Sorry...
6655321 is from an extremely advanced race from an extremely distant galaxy. Everything that its ship can do stems from the ability to project gravity wells of varying magnitudes. These can be anything from gentle tugs to the strength of a black hole, and are used as propulsion to pull the ship around, as weapons and as defences.
6655321's race are essentially sphereical blobs, around half a meter in diameter that live in liquid Oxygen. They are spawned in identical groups of about 5,000, and only the most perfect are pulled out every few millenia to fill up the species, because once they mature, they live for a few hundred million years, so each generation only consists of around five thousand creatures. 6655321 is this generations 6,655,321 spawnling. He meets the standards to be released and given a task. If he returns, he will be deemed worthy, and allowed to mature, and become a full creature.
Their ships are spherical, and filled with liquid Oxygen, either at high pressure or extremely low temperature, depending on the pilots preferance. The ship acts as a life support device, because the creatures are so fragile. It is only three meters in diameter. Suspended in the center is a gravity isolation pod that the creature floats in when the ship is projecting black hole scale gravity wells for high speed movement.
They have no real concept of wrong, their society lacks a concept of murder or death, because a body can easily be replaced by another, identical, if slightly less perfect twin from your spawn bed, and meticulous records are kept, so no knowledge is ever wasted.
6655321 has been sent to destroy a ship/creature that witheld data from the whole, and recover the data pod inside. he spent several thousand years geting here from his galaxy, but that sort of time is like a week to him

Contact Sargatanus/Sundered Angel for help inserting yourself into the story, if you want to be in.
OK, I've gotten a Geocities account, so no more special procedures. Here's the carrier (my best work so far, IMHO). (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/fadarkk/carrier1.jpg")http://www.geocities...kk/carrier1.jpg(/url) (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/fadarkk/carrier2.jpg")http://www.geocities...kk/carrier2.jpg(/url) (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/fadarkk/carrier3.jpg")http://www.geocities...kk/carrier3.jpg(/url) (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/fadarkk/carrier4.jpg")http://www.geocities...kk/carrier4.jpg(/url) (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/fadarkk/carrier5.jpg")http://www.geocities...kk/carrier5.jpg(/url)
Don't blame me for my posting all these, one of you asked for pictures, and I need the practice.
The blue-stiped green things in front are its gravametric destabalizers, which use thousands of semi-random gravetic wave cones to disrupt a target's structural integrity field and inertial damping field while simaltaniously accelerating it randomly (like a combo of the Cantharan gateship's 2 unique weapons, only not that strong). Its beam is visable as a sort of dim green zig-zag beam.
The weird rings on the midsection cover the docking ports of the fighters to prevent hostiles from firing into the fighter bay. The ships carry 10 Nijayias fighters.
The oddly-topped cones are railgun turrets, that can do serious damage but have lousy fire rates and only 150 ammo. Their shots are basicly like the Gaitori concussive cannons, invisable beams that go very fast.
Update: I've finished my move to Geocities. From now on the only time you'll see "angelfire" in a link is if it's a movie I made (I just might make a few for fun over winter break, if I'm as bored as I was this summer without internet.) or if SA wants me to create a shot graphic for his fighters (like he'd have me do that).

I'd like some feedback on these ship designs. Yes, I know they don't fully resemble the origional design ideas I set out, but those things evolve over time. Expect the Lenkk to change alot though, I don't like it's current form as much as I thought I did earlier.
So, any critiques?
(This message has been edited by Fleet Admiral Darkk (edited 12-18-2000).)
How about a Riaxx? I have a vision in my mind of the Andalusa, but I'd like to see the original gunship.
------------------
Riaxx? Sure, as soon as I figure out what it's supposed to look like.
It's your ship too, so please tell me what you think it looks like.
I always thought of the Riaxx being reminiscent of a Zidara from EVO, in shape at least, perhaps with more fluid lines flowing from the body into the wings. The Andalusa has large, conspicuous turret mounts for heavy weapons on the top and bottom of the ship. The weapons that are mounted along the side of the body are in swivel mounts, so that the Andalusa doesn't need to point directly at a target to destroy it(Espescially useful when strafing large stations or planets, the swivel guns and the bottom turret simply aim down and lay waste) The rear of the Andalusa has been expanded to accomidate a larger engine room, so it looks like it was punched out or inflated, when seen next to a standard Riaxx. There are numerous small ports that are exit tubes for light missiles. There are cuts and scars and lumps all over from the Chief Engineer's frantic attempts to fit an unreasonable ammount of equipment in too small of a space.
How have you been making these pictures, Darkk? I'd really like to post a few pics of Phyl ships to finally reveal what they look like.

To be honest, I proably spent less than 2 hours total on each, with the Lenkk and the carrier taking slightly more. Do you think I need to add more detail if they're ever used in a plug? If so, how much more?
No, what program are you using?
Originally posted by Fleet Admiral Darkk: **To be honest, I proably spent less than 2 hours total on each **
Hehe. I usually take about fifteen minutes to make a ship, unless it's a modified version of another ship I already have, in which case it's about five minutes.
Well, you've proably been doing this longer than me. Besides, I usually redesign the cursed things 3+ times before I'm done. Then I check them out from every angle to make sure they're what I want, and rendering takes time.
