Liberty Battle Transport - DartStriker - 02-17-2010
' Wrote:Hmm, looks interesting. Can see it being used as a medical frigate as part of a libertonian fleet. Could maybe be used to replace Battleship Alma or the Minneapolis. On the player side of things, I don't think it will be used very often. We have very few Navy/Police aligned traders and big fleet battles aren't frequent enough for anyone to want to make one.
But on the NPC side of things it's all green from me.
Well I would have to disagree with that, so far I have gotten strong player support who want to use this ship. Right now Liberty corporations lacks their own heavily armed transport. You can get the Mammoth, or the Mastadon. One only has 2.3k cargo the other has 5K cargo but only one weapon. This transport will be used to fill in the void with around 4.3k cargo and 8 or more weapons.
The bretonian "Shire", would be the most equivalent comparison.

Good point! Libertonians need something equivalent to the bretonian shire.
Liberty Battle Transport - Lunaphase - 02-17-2010
Perhaps aim for 3800 cargo and 10 guns or so? the shire has, what, 12? 14?
Liberty Battle Transport - jlrfernandez - 02-18-2010
The shire has 12 guns, 4200 of cargo and 150,000 hull.

Heck, I'm in love with that transport. Maybe it's better to cancel that "battle" and made this beauty the Libertonian super transport and kill that Masthodon.
Hope to see this one flying around in Sirius some day, I'll definetly own one of these even if I have to be with the liberty navy.
Brilliant work but as it was said before the textures look a little weird.

Dartstriker, I think you just became my favourite person ever. I can't believe I didn't see this thread before... seriously, Liberty has needed this kind of thing for ages.

This would definitely encourage Liberty factions to trade or do some anti-smuggling warfare. Being limited to a Mammoth...trading wasn't lucrative enough, but with such ship, events could be organized.

Make it 3800 cargo and you can start hiring mercs to privateer rheinland companies.

I enjoy this vessel yes, it looks alot like my Grandbell Frigate design but only in minor details. But thats the main reason I like it.
The fact that Liberty Corps need more reliable transports to interdict the smugglers I could too see this as a great help to one of my RP's The "Orasus," would be looking to purchase a vessel like this. Because of hits number of guns that has been speculated would give it great protection against waring pirates or rival companies.

Well thanks for the support everyone, I have the CMP file and Hit box ready. I just need to know what the next step is now towards inclusion in the mod.
