' Wrote:Can we get a frontal view of it with the Chimaera comparison?

(The one with the angled wings, far left, is the newest bomber model.)

I'll get new comparisons up soon. Those are old and not entirely accurate. Also, the wings are sloped on the current version, NOT vertical. I'm not sure how it compares to the current bomber, i'll try to find out.

Thanks!

Needs to be made a little more wide then. Kusari already has one extremely skinny bomber. If this is really meant to be a heavier Kusari bomber, it needs to look the part. As it is it looks the exact same as the FA Bomber, which is already a major failure in the balance department..

New Kusari Bomber - Sasaki - 07-22-2009

If this does replace the current bomber then it doesn't have to be a "heavy" bomber and can just be a typical bomber, which I think is more appropriate anyway. I can make it a bit larger, but then I think it fits in with the Kusari design of smaller but lightly armored.

Dunno... I'm willing to make whatever adjustments people generally agree it needs, but everyone has an opinion and I don't think it's going to please everyone, however much I'd like to:D

Peace! And thanks again!

Seeing as Igiss said that we are going to be going all heavy, I'd say this looks awesome. Not Join-the-KNF awesome, but awesome.

I'd say replace the current one, it's not normal for a faction to have two bombers.

Wyvern - possible name

I'd also be one to make it heavy if possible... light bombers get on my nerves.

It does look like it needs to be a bit bigger for that though. I guess it could be a medium bomber, if there's already a powerplant and such for that.

The Blood Dragon bomber should be changed to this model too, bit redder as usual.

Amazing...really...I don't know how you do it,but it's just...amazing.
This will also affect the Blood Dragon bomber,right?

New Kusari Bomber - reavengitair - 07-22-2009

If the KNF gets it...

Blood Dragons get it too.

ALTERNATIVLEY, we could give each faction a light and heavy bomber - like rheinland already has...

Just amazing. I stand in awe of your skills.

New Kusari Bomber - Sasaki - 07-22-2009

Thanks again guys:)

I don't really know what the stats should be, I just wanted to make a cool ship:PIf it should be kept at roughly the same as the current one, fine by me.

Here are some comparisons to the Chimaera VHF. I also suspect this new bomber presents a larger forward profile than the current bomber, so easier to hit when lancing. I did try it with the darker wings but really didn't like how it looked, so I kept this color instead (this is marked as "dragon" in the textures).

Thanks for the name suggestion! I'm thinking of "Ryuho" which I think means "Dragon Phoenix" in Japanese. I like the idea of using a dragon name as it looks (to me) a bit like a dragon... plus it breathes some serious fire!

Anyway, here's the comparisons. I increased the size of the ship a bit, made the cockpit narrower/smaller and I think it fits a lot better in the bomber class now. It's probably twice the hit box size of the Chimaera from the front and side. The top is fairly close, but with the engine it fills out the overall space more.
