"Procurator" Battleship Model

[Carlos_Benitez]

I think this has strayed off the topic at hand; the appropreateness of this model for the Corsair shipline in the postion of "light battleship" to replace the Osiris (as an evolved or, indeed, devolved form of the original).

Eternal
The ship will ONLY be removed, once a suitable replacement has been created and accepted by the Leaders of the Corsairs factions.

Im grateful for Eternal making this statement, and I really hope this is the case. We have 12 pages of discussion on this ship model, many people have been positive, many people have raised concerns, and many people have given constructive criticism. Allot of comments have been ignored or replied to with flippant comments referring people back to previous posts where Curios also ignored criticism.
Now, I can completely understand a desire to defend your model, and god knows it must have taken allot of work to get this far, but I think to assume that it's now perfect and that there are no improvements that can be made, and therefore that any criticism is invalid is a little ignorant.
No model is ever perfect, but where there ARE criticisms to be made, and suggestions on how to make the model even better, these shouldn't be just deflected.
Designers like Angel of Mercy and Jinx will probably tell you that often their first sumbissions gain huge and emphatic positive feedback, but a year or so down the line after implementation in the mod, people start complaining about flaws and asking for a remodel. Certainly, my aim is to ensure that any model added into the mod is as good as it can realisticly be, and reduce the likelihood of looking at it in a year's time in-game and thinking "you know what? This bit isnt quite right...".

I think Eternal may have over-stated the influence of the principle Corsair Clan leaders over what happens with the mod re. Corsair ships, BUT he is correct that in order for a mod to get into the game, it'll need the support of the Corsair playerbase.
Both leaders of the 2 official Corsair clans (myself of Benitez, and Montoya of TBH) have expressed that they are not entirely satisfied with this model in it's current form. But, hell, what do our opinions matter?
