If anything the nacelles might be one section too long, but they are supposed to be bright and blinggy... It's the Federation, for crying out loud.

Some fighters fresh from the asylum.

Sadist
(Beam fighter craft)

Fast, precise, sharp and armed to shred your opponent to ribbons, for the pilot that likes to cut something.

Madman
(Kinectic fighter craft)

The Exterior superstructure plating is supposed to compensate for its lack of armor, but no pilot has ever returned from battle to confirm whether this actually works. Only mad men take this ship into battle, thereby giving rise to the ships name.

Stabber
(Missile fighter craft) 

Why close in on your enemy when you can launch self guided missiles and stay out of range? And watch him die at your leisure.

Indeceisive Manic
(Combination fighter craft)

When you can't make up your mind what kind of weapon you want, why not take them all?

Voyeur
(Scout fighter craft) 

Some simply like to watch. Now with improved X-ray vision which allows you to see your subjects hidden parts.

Thecw very nice designs, it's kinda fun to go back to the start of this thread to see the beginnings transform to these magnificent beasts.

I have shuttle and fighter parts for including in bays and such, but like the others they crash the game.  A fix can't come quick enough for me, 90% of my fleet is sidelined till then.

So, I've been quietly watching the ships go by while wishing I had more time... but little by little I've been building and I have three new ships. I must say that picking apart some of Rand's ships really pushed me in a new, and I think better, ship-building direction.

In any case. Here is the first of the set of three ships: a medium hull corvette.

And here is the third: a huge hull dreadnought.

And here are all three together. I'm really pleased with both the continuity and subtle differentiation between the three... Anyhow, I welcome any comments.
