It's good, but doesn't have the Hiigaran frigate feel to it. Look at all the frigs: notice how they have the same basic superstructure and engine? Try basing your model around that. Good work though.

Once its textured you'll see it...hehe

Just a comment on terminology: no "frigate" could ever support that kind of weaponry and fit within the HW universe. That's at least a cruiser or heavy destroyer class, if you want to retain consistency.

Excellent model, and well presented as well. Good luck on your endeavour. (...and PM me if you'd like someone to assist in realistic scripting - not writing, as I'm sure you have your own ideas, but reviewing what you're planning on doing for voiceovers, plot, etc.)

With the movie...I'd definetly like someone to help me out with some of the kinks in the storyline...I believe what I'm following isn't going to be well taken by peoples...so I may have to change some things...like the main enemy...

It looks like two ioncannon frigs slapped together (*looks closer then bashes head into key board *5kcfhg*) good looking and sounds powerfull!, but lacks a fallowing of physics ie force onway had = and opposite force other way. Engines would have to be just as powerful as the cannons...my :2cents:

[Invincible]

Hiigaran "Invincible" Heavy Ion Frigate

The sheer fire of this vessel will be impressive alone, carrying 4 double gatling projectile cannons, and 4 large ion cannons, dealing an incredible amount of damage. Thrusters have been added, as it was learned with the previous ion cannon frigate that while aiming it took to long to fire its ion cannons. The downside to this design is when firing, its engines shut off, all power is transfered to thrusters and weapons, giving the enemy the time it needs to make a run for it, however if the enemy does not use its time wisely, this will be the last ship it ever sees. The Invincible's predecessor, the Firelance, also had another fatal flaw, fighters could move around it and it would be basically defenseless, that was until, the 4 double gatling projectile cannons were added as a fighter assualt weapon to the Invincible giving it another decisive advantage in battle, while the ion cannons are not firing or made not to fire, power is still on in the engines and the ship can be used as more of a fighter destroyer rather than an ion frigate. Overall, this is a superior Hiigaran design with few flaws.


* I had this posted at scifi-meshes a while ago...I forgot I had this little story explanation type thang...

I think it's a very clever kitbash.

[Zefram]

yea it looks sweet, what was it modelled in?

[Ammon Ra]

4 ion cannons...Hmmmmmm....Kadeshi :D

@retro, so there is a ship that *could* have similar firepower in the HWU :p

[Avatar of Set]

Well good the Kushan salvaged all thouse MBF (or at least they should have) they should be able to incorprate the tech into there own desine.

Me thinks a ship that is in fact 2 frigates should be duped a destroyer or somesuch.
Where are the galting guns? I can see the ioncannon bores, but where are the guns?

Never seen any Battleships for HW though, or are these called Heavy Cruisers?

I haven't added the gatling cannons yet, I'm redoing parts of the design..when I originally built this...it was two firelances...but I am altering the design a tid bit..its gonna stay based on that design but a few alterations for bridge etc....not many...plus a different engine design...and ya..I just chose Heavy Ion Frigate because..I'm lazy :P....hehe..many things need to be done...


* Oh ya..and sorry if it seems like I dissapeared off the planet...in fact..school started..and my job is like ahhhh...and my car was being a piece of crap...it was like wave after wave of doom...hehe
