Quote:Is that submarine-ish ship the cruiser or the gunboat? Also...why does it look like that? The Coalition is one of the leaders in science and technology (Russians and Asians have been known to be smart. Also, they invented warp technology first in StarLancer). Wouldn't they have more elegant-looking ships? The rugged-ness, while it does shout "For the Revolution," doesn't really show advancement in science and technology in my opinion.
They're based on starlancer ships, but beyond that... the coalition is a war machine, it doesnt need fancy pretty looking ships, it needs ships which can take a beating and dish out the same.
Beside, freelancer's ship designs, even the vanilla designs, seem based on a period of time ranging from world war 2 through the cold war, the ships fit in better with a soviet style influence than they would as high-tech craft.
I, too, am a fan of archaic weapons, mildly absurd looking tanks, suicide bombers, and crazy idealistic dictators. But, as you said, holocaust aside, the emperor was crazy to attack Pearl Harbor.
Anywho, I like the planes and ships. Something about those cannons is incredibly sexy.
A tip for the future, turn off mouse pointer when making cinematic videos. I believe there's an option for it in Fraps and most other recording programs.

What does that have to do with anything? Apart from the Hispania saboteurs, didn't part of the Coalition arrive in 2 mini-sleeper ships sometime in the last hundred years?

I did, xfire is stubborn and still captures the mouse though. I dont use fraps due to 30 second recording limitations.

Seriously. We have a lot of scumbag characters on this server, from torture murderers and stalinists to semi-Nazi Rheinlanders and Gallia. I don't think anybody likes these guys, and nobody here believes the whole world should belong to some French king, yet we RP as people who do, because it's fun.
