So we added some new vessels for all factions.
(Note that the designations of the ships may change in the release)
Galactic Empire:
defense cruiser 'Sleipnir' class
special weapons battleship (not named yet)
special weapons cruiser 'Freyja' class
Free Planets Alliance:
destroyer 'Deimos' class
special weapons cruiser 'Leda' class
Fleet Admiral Yang Wenli's Flagship 'Hyperion'
NPCs :
Yes, we are keeping pirate raids as a part of the gameplay like in the original sins. But instead of just adding thorns and spikes to some FPA or GE ships we create different types of pirate vessels. The idea is to have them based on old military designs and civilian ships:
As first pirate ship we have the standard destroyer ingame.
Please have a look in the images section!
