Hello there, hope you'd find something interesting here. I like Homeworld, 3DS RTS and coop-FPS genre and this and that here and there. If you have any game to try, you can ping me.
1st, are they needed?
Con> Nope, H has modernized their fleet entirely - look at Sobani! This fleet already includes best kiithid ships, like here: Amddred.deviantart.com
Pro> Doesn't matter. No new super-tech invented, so if the hull works as needed, why we need to change it? Btw, it's the new fleet, mb, not everybody got it.
2nd, would they be as a part of Hiigara Fleet or separate race?
Pro> You know, it's the one race, like V/T... Why they should be separated?
Con> Their design differs, hiigarians don't need some sneaky tech to win. They've chosen their strategy!
3rd, If separate, then should we separate also Somtaaw and Kushan/Kiithid?
Pro> Yeah, they are too different to be together;
Con> Too much attention to one the smallest of 8 Great Kiithid. All together.
Forth, if together, then how?..
So, I thought this thing. First, to the moment of the HW2 existed three or more hiigarian fleets: PoH Fleet, Somtaaw spec-Fleet & the fleet of the ones who had no time/resource to change the kushan ships (or they thought that they are good enough as they are - especially if they make eachyear technical review, upgrade inside & strongsten otside).
Yeah-yeah, there must be more ships for special operation - Sobani mercenaries, Tambuur/Manaani/Kaalel spy/diversion craft, but we haven't seen 'em.
So I've made this r.tree, taking that we make a distress call, and call out the somtaaw or kushani old fleet. K. could use Naabel SuperCarrier:
Shipyards.relicnews.com
for carrier/destroyer production.
Both SuperCarrier and S.Command ship would classified as shipyards. Btw, there were only 2 S. Com. Ships. Also, it would take to the choice - whether you need this help, or you need the cruisers.
Support modules are planned as facilities, that can produce both hiig and own ships. Specmodules - replaces r.modules. Btw, there are only few tech needed for S. own ships..
Well, it just the concept.
Smth lost from the foreword, but I remember only one thesis: hiigarians just redesigned their ships, as they needed to research the destro/cruiser chassis, unlike the Vaygr, which are quite newbies on the space war field.
