And off course a general model for those (poor souls ) who don't want to play our game. Please refer to the forum today later or tomorrow to see the playable skeleton of the game that I'm creating. But I like these ships. |

The way I read his messages here and to me is that each faction will have access to the same ships... like they are ancient and fixed without much new building going on. Factions are distinguished by modification and colors. I am just going by some emails Chris has sent me, but I will look at what you have posted earlier. -M |

Yes. That was the first idea from Chris and it made sense in what he first devised, but we are moving into another direction, not certain, of course, but please leave it open for now. I think that the design of your ships would be good for the basic "Earth" human empire and maybe later with some modification to some of the human spin off colonies, but we can wait to hear from Chris.

I see him saying one game, one set of ships. I see you saying three games and several sets of ships. I don't see anyplace where you come to agreement on this... ... but that is why I hate forums... they compartmentalize discussions. you have a dozen discussions about ships going on in different places. -Michael |

Trust me. Me and Chris are working in more or less the same direction. And we have agreed to try something in between. Keep looking and you will find it. But you can always wait to hear from him. Meanwhile I used your drawings for the test game. I hope you don't mind. I need some help in something. Please refer to the new thread I'll put in in some minutes right here. Joaquim |

Okay... will check.

Are you saying that each fraction will use the same set of designs...? No that's not possible by any means......

I thought that basic types of ships are identical - that is all sides have cruisers for example, though cruisers of different races look differently.
Is that right? |

That's right.
Different races have same classes, or almost same classes, but different techs, weapons and looks. That's my idea. |

IMO the classes can remain similar, but weapons should differ greatly, otherwise what's the point of having the difference at all... As a sideword, take any example of RTS. It wasn't until the appearance of RA1 that the functions of units from different sides differed greatly, and that's when all subsequent RTS switched this way, never looking back.
