Ships have genders?

Post by Tasoth »

I present the Munin Missile Frigate in all it's work in progress glory!

Image

So far, has a total of 14 forward facing torpedo tubes, 20 PD laser emplacements, nice spacious ammo magazines and will soon have ventral PD/CIWS projectile weapons because I want something that looks nifty keen on it. Oh, and it's main turrets are not done yet. Still gotta work on those. I'll keep this updated. I hope.

EDIT: Crap, forgot to put Sister ship in the opening line. It'd have made the title more obvious....

Pretty. If you're willing to be swayed, going for more smaller engines would be a good plan. One big engine is generally going to be more efficient, but damage to that bell will pretty well screw everyone over. That's of significant importance, being a warship and all.

Would those be the ones designed to plug enemy engine nozzles? :D

the ship is ~500m, is a missile frigate, so worrying about pinpoint attacks on the engine bell is only viable if the cappin' is dumb enough to let something close to beam range, operates with the Hugin (found here), which is a sensor frigate/Dedicated PD/Fire control hub and it's got some PD lasers. So operating something like 5 Munin to one Hugin means we get some nasty wolf pack action/Evil recon squadrons.
