Continuing with my Game as the Cyberlord Technoimperium. Posted some of the utility ships above, here are some of the sexier designs, with the grand finale at the end.
Just to recap from above, the Servitor Droid, the tradeship, and the Colony ship:
A few assorted ships:
Early game Missle Drone, slow, small, cheap... serves more as an orbital deterrent, and to encourage the AI to keep researching missle defenses, while I develop beam ships. Also, a link station in the Imperiums vast sensor net, and the Mysterious Stellar Ovoid...a late game huge hulled behemoth that gives rise to something else...
The first medium-hulled attack ship, the Gammahawk...average firepower, but fast and manuverable with sophisticated defenses for confounding the missles which the rest of the universe is using:
Finally, the signature Imperium vessel, the Void Raptor. A durable large-hulled battle cruiser . Much more powerful phasor attack craft with solid defense and good speed. Still vulnerable to the dauntingly powerful Drengin massed fleets, but fast enough to stay a step ahead and make opportunistic attacks.
And finally, the ulitmate expression of Cyberlord Technology, NovaWyrm, the star dragon! Gestates in the Stellar Ovoid, and launches late game *breathing* Doom Rays out of each head, and leads a massive force conquering everything in its path.
I cant get a good shot of it to save my life. The GC rendering engine and lighting setup in GC isnt really sophisticated enough to handle depth perception with complex overlapping shapes. I tried a second series with a gaudy bright color scheme which makes it pop a bit more, but its still hard to really discern form. Youll just have to take my word that its glorious
