' Wrote:not to derail the original Author's thread/ vision.. but check this ship out that was designed awhile ago, but the model was lost.

This would make a pretty sweet light bomber, and IMO is a good jumping point for a concept.

http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=9578

Something like this with 1 torpedo tube underneath, and the capability to fire SNs. Make it have weak armour, but quick and agile. (following the LPI's current ship line idealism)

' Wrote:One torp slot
One CD slot
4x class 9 gun slots
no turrets
weakest powerplant of the bombers, able to fire an SN but not much over that
class 10 shields, CM, mines (standard kit there)
weak armor
fast-ish; definitely fastest bomber, or at least close, but probably not faster than some of the slowest VHFs (Werewolf turning or something)

Of course, I doubt that'll go over with most people real well... mostly people that'll yell "RED CATS LOL". Tough.

I agree with this. Fast light and able to dodge.. It really does look like a merging of the Libby and the Avenger. Perhaps some of the Maintenance guys took some piece parts and held a "Homebrew your own Bomber" night.....

' Wrote:H'okay, so I've been working on making a Bomber for the LPI over the past couple of days. It's not completely finished yet, but enough that you can see the concept of my idea.
I'll ask you not to comment on the cockpit, because I know it looks terrible at the moment, I'm still working on finishing it. This is not the final product.

The idea is that the LPI decided to develop their own bomber to suit their needs rather than relying on the bombers built by other corporations (Upholder, Havoc and Roc). The Design is much the same as the Liberator, with a larger fuselage to accommodate the torpedo pods and power core. Essentially it appears to be a modified Liberator, though is quite a bit larger and requires two pilots to operate. One forward, one back.

Remember that this is still a work in progress. Thoughts?

Actually, it almost looks like a mini gunship. Maybe a class lvl 7 (Class 4) turrets on top and bottom, CD, CM, Mine, two class 9guns, and a class 9 shield. Give it the weakest bomber powerplant.

' Wrote:Frankly I suggest the following approach to the LPI bomber.

a ship about the size of defender, about the same flight characterstics as the gladiator.
4 class 10 guns
1 dedicated CD slot
1 torp slot
mine/CM
VHF power plant.
class 9 shield

It is basically used to stop incoming smugglars (cd) and damage them (aka Razor)
Take on ships like greyhound. I dont believe LPI should get a full fledged bomber.
That is Navy's job....lets distinguish the two a little.

As for the model....um.. yeah its a preggo. May be try putting two partiot fusalages side by side and the two slots (CD/Torp) in the middle one on top of another.

Any comments on this idea ?

THAT WAS MY IDEA!!! except top and bottom, cause weilding two libbies togeather makes a LIBBY B!
and... oh yah... libby-b

look at it... new pics:P

(now if someone would only give me the blender model for the libby so i can make it...)

Leave it with my suggestions and call it the SWAT van.....

EDIT:

Do what I said with it, flatten the left and right sides a bit for Airlock doors.

SWAT vehicle for Boarding and capturing ships.

out of the 2 models I've seen on this thread, I have to put in my vote for the one by mb52

Boss · 05-31-2009, 03:41 AM,

Well, it's not mb52's model. That one was done by Etaphreven who lost the files in a system crash. (And also left)

Sounds like maybe we should hold a challenge and see if someone has the "Huevos" to duplicate it.
