' Wrote:Eh, if adding more engines, remove a few of the existing ones, convert the engines on the bottom wing thingies into torpedo tubes? Keeping the engines in a straight line may make more sense, I do like the idea of torpedo tubes though, for some reason... the loss of the doors that open to eject stuff wouldn't really bother me if I'm honest.
I never really liked the idea of torpedo tubes on Bombers. To me, the weapon model is the torpedo tube, and it makes little sense to be to have a torpedo tube inside a torpedo tube. The Sabre already has 2 hard points on the under side of its' wings that are unused, that is where the torpedo hard points will go.
The Falcata is a very popular ship, I want to keep this ship as close as I can to the existing Falcata while giving it a more vanilla feel.
Quote:Though the wing may seem rather redundant, it could be for holding the turrets? Though, they'd probably need to be forward firing for that to work... which is too much for a bomber.
Adding supports, the one Jamez proposed looks good ( the second one, the first looks a bit... weird).
Lots of ships seem to have details added for little or no reason. This one could perhaps be a counter balance to the extra weight of the torpedoes and power core, or a stabilizer or something. It does have two hard points on it, but they'll likely go unused (BW ships seem to have a thing for unused hard points. Dagger has 2, Stiletto has 3 (Switchblade has 2) Sabre has 5 and this ship will have 5)
