[Ships/weapons/drones]Anterian Terminatorships (unsupported)

[Metzelmax]

I feel tempted to make another 2 ships (cause hey I have made many ships for the anterian species as a child).

I gonna do so if there is a high enough demand by you guys. So say if you want me to add some more stuff!

[Metzelmax]

42 downloads! Oh yeah!

Well, you know what? I'm gonna add new ships anyway. After all I am making this for myself

Version 1.2
-> added The Commando ship
-> added 4 new drones


Oh boy, it is way to fun to make these!

I said in the background stroy that the Terminators reach from Alpha to Delta class; which is true. But they are just overall stronger ships, which wouldnt be fun to play.
But the Anterian fleet is huge! I just found one of my early drawings, which listed all the different classes I made.

So I am added the Commando ship. Which is unarmed, but has drones and way better live support systems to protect the on board living Anterians.

Next will be a Battlecruiser class ship. The cruisers have weak armor, but more weapons.

Just won on normal. So I think the Commando ship is k, as far as I know. And since nobody bothers to tell me anything about balance and stuff; I will leave it that way.

Maybe now that i am making a "pause" on my mod i will try yours. But at first, u should consider to make some workaround on the room layout and the interior images, since i think nobody likes to see a door just mixed with the engines or blocking the medbay.. and so on. I mean, making a ship is easy, really easy, but the tricky things and the things that seems not to be important are the things that will define the fine work on the mod. Like placing the interior images in the correct way, so they are not blocking any door (this is just stetic of course, but people as i said, they use to like these details, almost to me), like re-define a bit the interior images, those things. The ship graphic is really not good looking, i suposse u didnt find something better (or maybe u are drawing em all manually), thats another thing that people use to look at. I mean, if the play experience is good, its nice, but if u add to that a great ship graphic design, it will be even better. Thats the reason i never start a mod if i dont have decent sprite graphics. That for a start.

I guess u are drawing the whole ships, maybe u should work on that. I will always prefer to use sketchup and make a good top-view render of a ship (i said sketchup cuz it is the easiest tool around for 3d modeling) , the results are amazing compared with any other method (drawing in paint.net, for example i mean...).

[Metzelmax]

That's right, I forgot about room interiors. I meant to include some later on, but forgot them completely.

I dont intend to do the ships as 3D models since I find that slightly overkill for a 2D game. I'm sticking with Gimp, that does it for me.

Version 1.4:

-> increased cd on Ionbeam to 14
-> added weapon: Heavy Ion Beam

Well did another LP of this, fun ships

Since you used the boarding drone on the delta cruiser at the start (which is not a good idea), you clearly should have played the Beta Terminator. Thats a real boarding ship^^.

But it's probably my fault since I added the boarding drone there and since its there people want to use it. But I thought it's a nice option to have one later on.
