I may not have sen this, but are those gunboat, or cruiser cannons on it?

As I said before, Make it a Consortium Assault Frigate! Or our answer to the Kusari Destroyer.:laugh:

Either way, the 'pointy things' on the front have to go. Keep the origional 'bayonet/axehead' bow, and the small 'canards' on either side (as with the 3rd set of images). Makes it look Yacht-ish but with some resemblance to stuff like Liberty Dread, Osiris, and Kusari Gunboat.

I'd also change the engine exhausts, from one big engine, to three or so smaller ones. A ship that big would probably need more then one, for mechanical redundancy and practical size limitations for drive systems.

Anyhow, If not a Consortium ship (though do make it that), it should ideally be something like the old Talarca Cruiser. A Corperate escort-combat transport without a lot of faction restrictions, and with the yacht and Talarca in it's lineage. But with only gunboat weapons and it's size and manuverability as limiting factors.

Ya breaking my heart man!!!

Engine redesign -- IS DONE thanks for the tip

Consortium vessel I am torn man. I really am. You know my reason for making such a ship. Along with the 4 other frigates that are on the drafting boards.

So this is what I'm going to do. To see and show you what the public thinks I'll update the Image and put this ship in the submission section with a poll attached. Sounds good?

Looks freaking awesome.

I am unsure what you mean by frigate, though. Is that like a Gunboat-Cruiser hybrid?

Bump with new ship:D

I finished more of this vessel though too lazy to show pics, this one was going to be a light class more higher ends. But meh Call this one the "Harper," Class. Comments concerns tacos? Please mention accordingly. Thank you.

The Harper is giving me strange star-trek vibes aaannnd...
The other frigate is looking like some remade transport to me.

Other than that.. I would Insta-buy them ingame.

Thank you for your comments,

Firstly the Harper, in this picture too, I'd say yeah would be out of place with the smoother or "clean," haul design. I did make changes to it, but I am awaiting inspiration to take it a step further and making it more hmm Freelancerish.

Secondly, another transport? Hmm I am unsure what it would be looking like perhaps Ah wait I know now thinking about it front end reminds me of the BW transport. Hmm I could easy change that.

Thirdly, Instant buy IE "Nice, I would fly that?" Thank you. I actually would fly my Grandbell class more then anything cause it will be the biggest out of the array of class vessel.:)

Thank you again,

In my opinion the Harper should lose the docking bay and the entire front should be a little tad higher and in-line...but that's just me. And even though it reminds me of star trek it still looks pretty Freelancer to me. I would SRP, fill out 1000 forms if needed be for me to fly that baby!

I never did like gunboats (too light) and cruisers (a little to heavy) as caps...a frigate would be right on me!

Thank you for your comments,

No SRP required ever. And the gap between GB's and Cruisers has been tough to work out but i'm sure dev team can accept what the community believes would be a frigate class.
