I stand corrected.

The Nyx is alright, but frankly, all it is is a recolored Viper from BSG with poor modeling quality.

My favourites are the BWT (Discovery's DC-3) and the Waran (Discovery's A-10). Beauty from functionality. Perfect.

Actually, your description reminded me of Charon if anything.

The Nyx might be based on the BSG Viper, but it's still a proper model for Disco (And a damn sexy one mind I mention).

Just only one more question about Pilgrim.

As wiki said, TTR-1130 model was used in first days in sirius... So, for have some realistic RP, in your opinion how old can be a Pilgrim today?

as 800 years is not realistic for me (a sort of Noah's ark...:D), I think that an old Pilgrim can be more than 100-150 years old...

Your opinion, thanks.

not sure if anyone would seriously go by a 150 years old boat these days - other than for historical purposes or to proof something / or something to themselves.

even a 50 years old ship might be old already. - and while things don t wear out in space as much as they do in salt water - space is also more hostile than water ( i think )


since spaceflight had been quite developed by the beginning of sirius though.... we can assume that the advancements haven t been too great for the past centuries ( maybe rather like the long long bronze age where there wasn t too much difference between a "modern" bronze sword - and a 100 years old one )


whats more critical is .... the older something is - the more specialized it becomes to maintain it. - knowledge alone isn t sufficient - but also parts. if you don t have the right parts - you may be forced to use substitute parts - or parts that fix the problems "just good enough".

in the end - your ship might indeed hold together with the metaphorical "duct tape" ....

... what you need is a character that firmly believes in duct tape.

Yes, this make sense. Effectively already long ago I wanted to set my own rp basing it on a ship ... very old, with a number of temporary malfunctions, sometimes critical (ex. Thrusters, communications ... even the Cruise Engine fails, or some *slaver* old turrets)

In fact, however, these Pilgrim can only be purchased at the Junkers, and in fact a ship of 80-100 years may make sense (considering also the rusty bodywork, not exactly from "Miss ship Sirius").

Ok. That I suppose near 70 years is a ponderated choice.

Thanks for your opinion
