never thought of that - but after i saw the picture, it makes some sense indeed. - and ... allthough i don t like starwars ships in FL.. i gotto admit that the slave 1 DOES indeed fit into it.
Made a quick edit of the Slave 1 and implemented it in my open SP.
There are some screenshots:
It will need to be scaled up a bit and a slightly changed weapon configuration, than i did so far.
I placed the two torp launcher downside (two pics in space) on weapon hardpoints.
With distance a better ship, than the Waran or the Arwing and fits more.
We will get an BHG Bomber by Mohr. So the Slave 1 could be implemented for this ugly and useless Waran Bomber or as an Zoner Heavy Scout, because the fact, Zoners wouldn't use Bombers.
oh.....oh god...why....
the slave is massivly iconic....
you cant make people not know exactly where its from....
almost as bad....or maybe worse, than the Battlestars....
Come on....little bit of freelancer style in our ships?
Twenty-five minutes ago, I passed a pod racer on my way home.:cool:
OK...
Reality Check: After dropping off a customer, I was on my way home in my taxi on Interstate-81 when I passed a small green car with the license plate "POD RACR" (or "POD RCR"). As I passed him, I was tempted to (but didn't) roll down my passenger side window and yell "Star Wars geek!":crazy:
Juan_Arquero
By the way, he was an old (ca. 50-55 years old) Star Wars geek.
Wow... long rabbit trail there. I was simply asking if Zoners had a Gunboat all their own.
The reason I'd like a gunboat and not a heavy fighter is... I'm thinking like in "Waterworld" where Costner has his home out on the water; felt more at home OUT THERE, and not in some port of call. My ship is like my home, and needs to be large enough to have that kinda feel to it.
The kusari little gunboat is more what I'm thinking of, or, like above, a catamaran design. Either way it would be a turret firing vessel, not a manueverable fighter.
