I dont know what era this is supposed to be except for that the parts propably are from the same one, I dont know if i should make it romulan or klingon and ultimately, I dont know how much does it suck?

(mutilated [EDIT] Destynovas parts

)

Terradyhne · « **Reply #1 on:** September 18, 2005, 04:14:08 am »

the design itself don't suck that much because its a TOS one and in TOS era there was the first Klingon/Romulan tech exchange and the klingons gave only mothball fleet or heavy damaged ships away and this bash shows that the romulans tryed to do its best to use the parts they got
but i think such a hybrid ship would be dated more in the TMP era than in TOS era

hmm herr hydne himself. thank yous

D5 + some romulan ship from between king vulture and war eagle

I think it sucks pretty bad. Some may like it. But I'm an historical nut. If the klinks or Roms had one, it needs to be made, but with the proper insignia and colors. Because although it may look ugly, and suck, is irrelevant because in the game it existed and it was there for combat. It doesnt care if you think its pretty or not, its there to kill you... At least I'd know what side of the fence its on cuz I'd never fly it, lol. Does it have a pretty break model?

hehe

Mackie dude this kicks so much ass theres none left to kick my freind a couple of suggestions though keep this release as a Romulan variant then for a Klink ship simply have the pylons and nacelles swooping downwards like a klink D7.
this allows for a tech swap and 2 variants for both races

well i could do a little bit different klink variant of it but swooping down the wings is out of the question im afraid, the model turns and twists too bad if i do that. and i really dont want to remodel the wings because i cant do that

i just need to find some solid wing art for the 'YARR MATEY!' version

Starforce2 · « **Reply #8 on:** September 18, 2005, 08:14:11 am »

Well, I'm feeling a bit of a draft...

Bit, FYI, the tos BOP pylons would be ripped clean off by the nacelles of a D7 because that space frame was never meant for warp travel. Appearance wise however, this ship looks good untill you see D7 nacelles on the ends of them pylons...that looks rather...wierd. Perhaps a nacelle closer to that of the TMP warbird by atolm would look better? (thus beeing a later than tos era variant obviously) Along with perhaps less of an upward angle on the pylons? Just keep moving/swapping parts and throwing pix out there...

for the second time, those parts are from a D5 which i believe to be from same time ;P

Looks great Mackie, I say go for it. No clue what to do with a Klink version as it has been stated they gave the Roms junker ships and really would have no use for a sub-warp space frame.

Mackie · « **Reply #12 on:** September 18, 2005, 12:57:51 pm »

as for the warp capability, this is from destys site;

Quote

Romulan War Eagle/King Eagle Heavy Cruisers (Old Series):

These ships are 100+ year old War Birds of the type used in the first Federation/Romulan war. They have been updated with warp capability, phasers, transporters, and shields. While they are not a match for a new tech heavy cruiser, any of which could cripple them with one alpha strike, their saving grace is the powerful plasma "R" and the ability to cloak. Which still makes them dangerous.

If Terrahdyne didn't fall over and faint, I guess it doesn't suck!

Mackie · « **Reply #14 on:** September 18, 2005, 03:18:02 pm »

Hey!
Thats pretty cool looking destroyer/frigate Mackie, I would certainly find a spot for her in my shiplists . .

But . .

The only thing about her I dont care for is the steep angle on the nacelle wings/struts and thats it

lovely

On the contrary Dizzey .. what someone has attempted to do is "marry" the TOS Romulan ship with a later version of the Romulan Empires shift to Klingon design. Granted there was never a ship on the series like this .. nor was there one in SFB ...

BUT ... that does not rule out someones attempt to interprit the "marriage" of the two technologies.

Would I do it ?

Nope !

But ...

then again ... that's just me !

Some people shouldnt be allowed to marry... And some people shouldnt be allowed to breed.
