I guess it's around 300-400 meters long and armed with four quad turbolasers, two ion cannons, and a heavy twin turbolaser turret similar to my Bebop 2. It also has three main engines and an undetermined number of secondary engines.

If anyone flames me for the color, yes they come in Standard Imperial White™ as well.

Thought as much, thought it might have been some sort of vector program. Very good. Very good.

First thing I thought of upon seeing that pic. It would be quite cool to battle ships from SW in Warning Forever.

God damn those are some big guns....Someone had to say it.

You sure the reactor's going to be big enough to support those beasties?

What the hell makes people think they can simply wield disproportionate cannons everywhere on any SW design when the ISD itself lacks this, and every other example. Fucking retarded. :roll:

Well, if you ever had read Eins fiction you would know he has a Weapon system which allows for much larger guns then
StarWars would ever be able to produce... It's not that silly.

Then I hope the ship's capable of absorbing the recoil from those monsters, and that its engines can compensate for the drift they're going to produce.

Added two secondary engines and armor plate on the hull.

I'm honest not a big fan of the big gun but it doesn't look bad there. I'd put a gun aft, though.

Ein, you are a genius with MSpaint. I really like it. Is that just a basic SD hull shape? Anyway, looks awesome!

Hey Win, love the secondary thursters you added, but, um, whats up with the reinforced 'whatever' around the ship? Looks overly clutered

You are the MS paint wizard.

I like the design. I'm going to guess it was designed to be capital ship, because opf the huge gun. Maybe I'll put in a Custom TIE design if I may. (The tie would be to accompany your behemoth into battle.

Sorry, Ein, but frankly I agree with IP. While you clearly do have talent with MS Paint, personally I think you're wasting your talents doing all these ships with huge ugly wankish guns smacked all over them. It's just all completely absurd.

Yeah but there are no little guns. Every ship has to have its strengths and weaknesses. Besides, I like the change from bland old stardestroyers all with the same guns- just more or less of them.

How is having no small guns a weakness? Placing such enormous turrets on a small spaceframe is going to play hell on the ship's structure, especially those placed furthest from the ship's center mass. And aside from recoil, you have recoil drift to consider, which those guns will do tremendously. And third, the weapons need a powerplant big enough to accomodate their requirements.

Sorry, while the overall design looks cool, at least shrink the damned turrets by 2/3, if not more.

How such big turrets hit fighters? a squadron of B-wings might take it down.

LIL' GUNS AHOY! Deleted a pair of quad turbolasers from the brim trench, added six 'conventional' HTL turrets, and added the small twin turrets. I'm thinking of getting rid of the ball-turret ion cannons too. I'm keeping the Big Twin however.

If I still get screamed at, so be it :)
