BHG Gunship

[Robert.Fitzgerald]

Mjolnir, can the hardpoints be edited (not deleted)? If not, this ship will look junk (designed for 5 turrets)...

If they can be edited, make the 6th turret a level 1 turret and place it in some obscure spot. The fighter turrets are small, so it won't wreck the looks of the ship.

Just make it rear only...

[Robert.Fitzgerald]

If it's rear only, the ship will look like trash. Have you seen some of the sizes of capital turrets? How about the look of Jinx's gunship model, how good would that look like with some massive rear turret?

It should be downgraded to a fighter turret, the Gunship certainly does not need 6 gunboat turrets.

Hm... Then make 1 hard point unable to mount any turret.

[Jinx]

you know, i m not sure if we can change the turret types so freely. - so if we cannot, its bound to be 6 turrets. only thing i can do is place one "inside" the ship, so the shots come out of the rear hull without a turret model.



about the turret size - thats allways been a problem with that ship. some turrets allways looked bad on it. ( so its actually only nomad and solaris turrets looking OK on it, cause the first one is only a light, the second one is as small as a fighter gun )



or i think of something completely different for the gunship. - since its the "old" model, it must not necessarily be in line with the "up-to-date" designs. but if its a direct replace of the model, its bound to be 100% the same when it comes to hardpoints.

nah... all the Kusari-like turrets look ok - so Kusari, Zoner, GMG

The Cerberus/Rheinland/Liberty ones also look ok.

Bretonian ones look crazy on any GB around. Nomad tumors as well.

Im glad Im not the only one to notice that. I put missile turrets on mine last night and it looks like Popeye

here is what i quickly made - tried to stick close to the concept ( with a few little alterations ) - the red dots mark the possible turret hardpoints.



i m not convinced by that shape - now that i have seen it in 3d. it offers a VERY small profile from all sides but top and bottom. - the cockpit suggests a size around 3 times as long as the BHG bomber, which is as long as the orca, but much much MUCH more skinny.

Needs some work but shows promise, Jinx.

Jinx, I personally preferred this version, perhaps with more Orca-isation by AoM:
