Born of a dissatisfaction with Homeworld 2, the Homeworld:@ team is building upon the foundations of Homeworld and Homeworld:Cataclysm to create a faithful sequel in the Homeworld:2 engine, with new ships, storyline, and game mechanics.
More from the desk of Dark Sentinel, the mod now includes a revamped HW1 taiidani destroyer. Like the imperial frigates, this will largely fill singleplayer or survival roles. Also pictured is the unfinished republic destroyer.
Sick!
more like a cruiser in size eh ? :P Nice work.
It's really more about the HW1 models being smaller in comparison to the HW2 ones. If you remember, they scale differently. A HW1 Destroyer is only a bit bigger than a Frigates, a Heavy Cruiser only a bit bigger than the Destroyer.
I would dare to guess the new Taiidan model is about our standard Destroyer size.
Actually, we tend to take HW1 scaling as our benchmark, not HW2's. Having some 'size creep' makes in-universe sense after 100 years of RnD, but we were a bit surprised to see how dramatic the size differences here were, to be honest. It remains to be seen if and how we'll address that in future work on the ship.
