steamrunner is still one of my favourite ships! What's its role?
fantastic stuff, hope the steamrunner gets it's torpedo boat role properly realised :)
Latest bunch of screenshots are very beautiful
The Steamrunner was never a torpedo boat, you're getting confused with the Akira - which was itself supposed to be a carrier but became a heavy assault ship sporting 8 torpedo launchers. The Steamrunner was a fast attack/patrol ship. So if I was to hazard a guess, I'd say it was either the heavy frigate or a cruiser of some sort. Total stab in the dark, could be completely wrong.
The Steamrunner was used as artillery in Armada 1 and 2, so it stands to reason that it might get the same role in this mod.
It would have been a standard cruiser in the "real" Trek universe as the heavy Tricobalt torpedoes shown in Armada were likely not standard issue :P
