I think it looks good. Defintly not zoner ship.
It will give civ's,freelancers, and mercs a ship at the least.

Make a second version slightly larger for a corvette version.(only an idea).
Good work jinx.

It looks like a Lib Gunboat did it with a bottlenose. I approve

we dont need mroe useless ships in the mod.

It's an interesting but still generic design, cause I think it doesn't have too many connections with any faction ships ... maybe just a bit ... but still, it looks really nice.

I think it would look great in game and could be a replacement for mercenary/junker/ect. factions who are using other factions GBs , cause they don't have their own ...

I agree that it looks like some sort of liberty gb hybrid.

Its very well done as well.

About who produces it why not "making" a new manufacturer. Look at Renzu ships, they are just Renzu, but they don't belong to any faction; and I guess they can be called generic

Just one request: replace the bubble canopy. Maybe make two people visible, maybe segment the canopy, maybe make it a glass stripe instead of a bubble - I dunno, I just for some reason don't dig the bubble. I DO love the living space you have down there, though. It'd be absolutely perfect for long-range escort duties, exploration and the like.

As for origin, I dunno. Obviously it's not CTE. *shrug* Some details need to be figured out, but it's got a great deal of potential. I'm thinking...mebbe...five turrets and no forward gun, but good firing arcs (all five could fire forward) or six with one rear-firing only. Just my opinion...and to be fair, I dunno how big it is compared to other gunboats, so my estimate might be off. Regardless, it's a niche that needs fillin', and this isn't a bad ship to fill it.

Isn't it a bit TOO long... ?

I like it as it is.

This, to me, looks like what an open market GB should be.

Perhaps a little smidgen shorter, but apart from that, win.

H-h... HAWT.

Epic stuff, Jinx. Methinks six turrets, five forwards and three backwards.

That's 8 turrets... Unless you meant that 2 of the five can fire backwards:P


Anyhow, I love this design:)

Nothing wrong with it at all, make it official already!!
