But that...that would be damn expensive vessel. Like a battletransport....

FL MOD(EL)MAKING: TOOLS, RESOURCES, TUTORIALS AND MY SHIPS (OLD)

I am on discord: Roal-Yr#5994, I don't log on forum more than a few times a year.

I am not making ships for FL anymore, I am making my own space game instead:

Model looks good, not going to argue the ships specifics as they're irrelevant to me.
Good work!

I am saying replace the gunboat turrets with transport turrets. 11 gunboat turrets is too many and he wont reduce them, so this is the best remaining solution IMO.

The house battletransports are >4000 cargo, so a cargo capacity of 3500 would be penalty. Actually it should probably have a bit less, since that would make the BWT less desirable, probably about 3000-3200 neighborhood would be good. The docking bay provides an extra bonus to make it interesting beyond just cargo, so that is good for keeping it attractive.

The concept was that of a Super Heavy Gunboat.

But...if you want to change it to a transport, then those values will be good, 3000 is perfect. A well defended Civilian battle transport that can hold decent cargo that a Freelancer can use.

Or we can just heck the whole thing and make it an IMG battle transport. (IMG| bias kicking in here)

I'm not sure I want this ship used as a transport. It was designed as a super heavy gunboat, something which travels alone and is able to defend itself as such. And, the number of it's turrets is irrelevant, it's the firing arcs that matter.

I agree with Nickolai, don't make it a transport. Keep it the way it is - a heavily armed / armored exploration-or-something vessel.

I like it, but don't replace the KuEx with it, just add it in. Give FLs some variety eh?

This was never the intention. It is a completely new ship. And yeah, my hope was that this ship would have a docking bay. It was designed with it in mind, but I believe only fighters/bombers and small freighters/miners should be able to dock on it.

[FGDireito]

I would buy it for sure ;)
the one with the observation cupola i mean

Excelent, and I believe a docking bay would be a possibility, heck Liners have two, why can't a Cruiser sized GB have one?
