Alternative bridge rocks, but can you make something like in my picture with front part?

Nope =P

I tried to give it a sharper front end instead of the typical 'hatchet' design, but it doesnt come out looking right, primarily because removing anything off the front makes it look like the ship has a huge hole where the front end should be.

Anyways, I think it loses a little too much of the osiris design if the front is changed, I've already taken out just about everything except the main body and engine (well, and added the four extra engines, as you can see).

D:

Okay, i'll try it myself later. But yes, this is close to what we actually want i guess. Good work.

Please, NO HORNS!!!
Leave them to Dreadnought! I hate horns!!!:(

And yes, modified Ossie would be cool
As well as replacement for Dreadnought and Cruiser.

I doubt the corsair dread or cruiser (or any corsair ships for that matter, osiris aside) will ever be getting new models. They're all custom models made by the players here, not imports, and none of them have any real issues.

Sorry if you dont like horns, but it seems to be fitting of corsair ship design.

i dont see any reason for the corsairs to get another battleship. they have the heavy dreadnoughts, and then they have the "lower grade" (in RP terms that is) osiris light battleship hull customized to fit the corsair nation,

Instead of getting a new ship though. Why not make a version of the Osiris that actually has Corsair Modifications to it?

They arent getting 'another' battleship, we're just talking about changing the visual model of the current osiris (for the corsairs). The current osiris is an order ship, the corsairs use it, but in reality they would have their own variant with their own influences applied to it.

Basically, we'd take the current one ship used by two factions (the osiris) and split it into two ships: The order osiris, and the corsair osiris. Both would have similar stats, same number of hardpoints, so on and so forth - as said before, I'd suggest the corsair version lose it's reverse speed boost and maybe take a slight hit to agility in exchange for heavier armor, but none of the differences between the two would be overly noticable. The goal is to get a model that looks 'corsair'.

I'd also suggest calling the corsair version the Phalanx, to keep with the naming theme of the corsair shipline, while keeping the order version of the ship the Osiris.

Unfortunately, it isnt an actual ship model - all I did was use GIMP (aka "photoshop for beggars") to kitbash images of the osiris, imperator, praefect, and legate from the wiki. I'm sure someone could easily model it, though.
