the outcast dreadnaught..... - i m a bit torn there...

for one, i absolutely LOVE your BW / outcast design in general. the blocky shapes, the swordlike - very long and thin ships. - i don t mind that they look like the hilt of a sword or in that case - the hilt of a lightsabre from star wars....

what i miss with that dreadnaught though is ... mass.

the battleship looks light, yet big enough to be a battleship. the current star wars dreadnaught invoked some kind of foreboding by the sheer look of it. its massive, its dark, it looks much more dangerous than most other ships. ( even if the zoner juggernaut is more powerful or the rheinland, nomad, kusari BB ... they do not look like it )

now that concept does not transport that same idea. - it does not look dangerous, even if it is. - it doesn t hit an enemy as bluntly as the current dreadnaught that you see and think ... "should i really?" ... a problem i have with the battleship, too. it looks "tame". beautiful, but not outright dangerous...

now if the look of a ship is part of its tactic, too. - then those ships are "wolfs in sheeps clothing" - but not "wolfs in wolfs clothing" - if you get the drift.

about the hackers spyglass. - it needs more liberty dreadnaught characteristics and less outcast BW characteristics, imo. - the frailness is great - but i have a problem with the spiked ring. - it looks much like the ones on your BW designs. - but the spyglass has nothing to do with the BW. its a liberty only design and non modified ( at least not from the outside ) - i d rather like to see more antennaes, satelite dishes or sensor orbs. ( the satelite tech is not too advanced when it comes to looks - the deep space satelites on the borders look just like .... good old satelite dishes )
