Ages of the Federation 2 is the upcoming second installment in our series of total conversions for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion. The mod takes place primarily from The Motion Picture Era (TMP) and during The Lost Era (TLE), focusing on the border conflict between the United Federation of Planets and the Cardassian Empire. The Klingons, ever ready for battle are poised to launch war on those they consider worthy of their mettle and as always, the Romulan Star Empire stands ready to take advantage of any perceived weakness to advance its own secretive aims.
oh pretty, is that a precursor to the Ambassador class? as it does look like a cross between the excelsior and the Ambassador, an mod original design?
Its the Excelsador or the Ambassior.
It's a popular fan design called the Balmung-class.
Wow, that's pretty! Never heard of it before so I just googled some images. It's got pieces of both that I like. Very much looking forward to seeing the 3D model in game.
A slight suggestion. It could just be the angle of this shot and the model is probably finalized already, but it seems to me from the other pics online that the nacelles should be a bit shorter in length.
They look to be the same here as the Excelsior ones, which are long. In other media they look to be shorter than those, but longer than Galaxy or Ambassador class. Similar to the proportion to the rest of the ship of the nacelles on the original Constitution and refit. Anyways, just a thought :)
