' Wrote:Nonsense. This is clearly a liner for the discerning paranoid maniac.
It's industrial lines, no-nonsense design aimed for protection screams I CANT AFFORD TO BE BLOWN UP.
Seriously, it's like awesome liner.
I want one.
A....a mite big though.
Larger than a RM BS is massive.
But no, i want one. NOW.
Aye. Generally, it's meant to be more armored and more flexible (in terms of RP anyway) than its smaller cousins. I imagine it'd also work fairly well as a corporate flagship, too, if one so desired to use it as such, as it'd be pretty heavily armored and armed (while being balanced, of/c) and a very modular design..
It's actually not as long as the RM BS by about maybe fifty meters, and a lot less wide and tall.
Also, for the whole 'modularity' thing, I was thinking perhaps a secondary 'ID' like thing could be used, it'd not impact its performance any, but it'd be used to signify what the user currently has it modded out to be. (They'd also be somewhat expensive but not really, maybe around 4 million since it's technically doing hull mods on it, and they'd only be available at shipyards, like the two in New York). So let's say someone has use of it as a luxury liner, they'd use a 'Luxury Liner Mod'. If say a House wanted it as a diplomatic transport, they'd use a 'Diplomatic Mod'. Now, this part isn't really necessary as part of the ship's concept, you can just tell someone you're roleplaying with what you use it for, either through your roleplay name or through roleplay with the other character, however, this 'tag' system would be good in that someone can find out without you having to waste time telling them, as most people will scan the ship upon meeting them anyway.
Trying to use the say Luxury Liner in the mod now for anything other than a luxury liner gets rather iffy, due to it already being specified as such; a luxury liner, same thing goes for the slave and prison liner. The yacht could be used for stuff like this but variety never actually hurts, and some people may want something bigger, tougher, and with more teeth.
