Description
Race : TradeAlliance
Type : Ship
Class : Capitalship
ID : Carrier
The Alliance's bird-of-war. Able to support vast numbers of strike craft, this powerful warship supports friendly fleets.
Updated model for upcoming release R8
Looks great.
Umm......you might want to change the bridge texture a bit. For a warship it has way too many windows(The same goes for the dreadnought).
"For a warship it has way too many windows"
The only problem with the windows is ... it cost a fortune to keep them clean.
Windows are structural weaknesses.
*Geths out*
Yeah but they offer a perfect view of the utter blackness of space highlighted with expolsions and lazors
If they manage to get past the strike craft
NOOOOO WHY :( the trade carrier was very amazing
personally i like the battlestars. able to dish out nukes and fighters its a hybrid battleship/starfighter carrier hence battlestar. it looks great
I liked the BSG one better!! WHY'D YOU CHANGE IT?!!!!!!! >=C
I'll consider adding the old model to Rebellion
Why not change the fighters/bombers instead?
The TA fighter/bombers have been changed, i.e all BSG models have been removed.
So much for Raptor being the TA Corvette in Rebellion.
Really going to miss those Vipers though.
definitely my favorite model. I only hope that frontal canon is gunna pack a lot of punch even though it's a carrier, it would be nice to know it can stand a descent fight. Also wondering, will the carrier be able to attack fighters as a way to support it's fighters?
also i cant help but notice
the only reason people think the BSG ones are better is cuz they like the show or they feel the name Trade Alliance is bound to it, i bet most of them arent even looking at the details of these models. Atleast these models actually have turrets on 'em and the details are a lot better than the BSG ones. It would however be nice to make a second download containing all BSG files so people could still play that if they wish...and if not, better get some modding skills
"Also wondering, will the carrier be able to attack fighters as a way to support it's fighters?" The TA caps have assorted Flak and point defense abilities
"It would however be nice to make a second download containing all BSG files so people could still play that if they wish..." its a interesting idea. My problems with BSG is that they don't have cruisers or frigates
yeah i see the problem..but on the other hand, i don't think people would mind only the CAPS being BSG while the frigates/cruisers are ur design (even tho applicability is affected). But I shouldn't really talk for what the BSG fans want, I like the current designs way more, just laying down an idea for all the we-want-bsg-back spam on each pic. (yes i know this post could be considered one)
After the Frigate/Cruiser update the BSG ships started to lose applicability. Its just going to take time to get used to.
Maybe we'll get lucky and see Colonial Cruisers and Frigates in Blood and Chrome.
Looking Through your screenshots. I think its pretty cool that you're finally using original models for the Trade Alliance and mot Battlestar Galactica models
