Just give it gunboat turrets. Or at least change some of the transport turret slots to cruiser.
Its just a big fat battletransport with a large hull pool and boosted shield. Nothing that makes it feel like a frigate.
You can better pick a bustard if you want a transport with alot of armor and shield. It will outclass this thing on every front.
couple Ideas for making this frigate into more of a frigate:
- Give it a CD to let it pirate.
- Change transport turrets for gunboat turrets.
- Change 4 of the transport turrets to cruiser turrets.
- reduce the size
Otherwise I want to say that I love the model. Kudos for making it, I like it alot. It just needs to be rebalanced abit. Best idea I can come up with is making it a hybrid ship like the ships mentioned in earlier posts.
