Description: The Achilles is a Orbital Destroyer, designed to rain down destruction with powerful Long Range Assault MegaMaser Cannons. These are able to destroy even the most heavily fortified ground structures with ease and pinpoint precision. It is also capable of entering a planets atmosphere and act as a mobile command base. Its powerful weapons can even be deployed against capital ships, however, are practically useless at short ranges, forcing it to use fighter support and standard weaponry against close range enemies.

Well good job over there mate, but should't you pm Zach with these writeups so he could post them in the right thread? That is at least what I did with the Immortal stealth vessels writeups so sue me if I am wrong.

However I am glad to see someone else helping with the faction ships....you have been doing a lot to this faction ever since you joined buddy.

 

[Alexander Dregar]

All these are for him to look over first before posting them, and for any feedback from other people! I have already PMed him about these ideas, just want to make sure I didn't miss anything!

Nice job with the writeups, Alex. Sorry I didn't see the others sooner, I thought you'd be posting them all in the same thread as the Legacy-Class.

I like this ship in particular, but I have two thoughts in mind. As a Destroyer, I'd like to enlarge it in size as a basic capital ship, or construct it as a Chiss Super Star Destroyer with a Dreadnought-Space Station mix class. This would help with its size, deployment numbers, armaments, and defenses, while still a mobile vessel.

We also have several different frigate-sized designs, with a good number of larger ships, but no space stations. I'd like to get at least four or five different types of stations up. This one seems best suited for having the long-range super laser, while still being able to serve as a fortified base for a planet (maybe still capable of touching down to a planet's high-atmosphere/low-orbit).

Ah, of course! Change what you want! I am not picky about the names, or many of the details. All I am doing is giving general ideas for ships. Take you what you like and make it your own! I will start a thread for many different space stations, fighters, shuttles, transports, and the like. I guess I will just make ONE new thread, to add all my new ideas into. Also a few ideas for ground vehicals

 

[Zach]

Awesome, I look forward to it.

I have to admit, I kind of like the idea of heaving separate threads for designs, so people can comment on them specifically for ideas and critique. However, a mass number of designs would flood the OOC board, so a single thread would probably be best.
