Cool - here is an idea that I have been pondering:

Shadow Larva Ship - Skirmish

Speed 10 SM
Hull 5 Damage 5
Dodge 4+, Atmospheric, Shields 2/2, Self Repair 1
Phase Cannon - Range 6, Turret, 4 Dice, Accurate, AP, Double Damage

I think any Shadow player knows what this ship is for...

I had been thinking about using the AOG large fighter model for it, but yours is even better.

Any thoughts on these stats?
 
@ (Venator)Urobach - Man that is awesome, you're the sculpting God! ;)

@ Humbaba:

Shadow Larva Ship - Skirmish
Speed 10 SM
Hull 5 Damage 5
Dodge 4+, Atmospheric, Shields 2/2, Self Repair 1
Phase Cannon - Range 6, Turret, 4 Dice, Accurate, AP, Double Damage

This is very nice but the ISA would cry foul - it's got WS killer written all over it! I'd make the gun Forward Arc at the very least and probably make the Dodge 5+. Then it would be great I think.
 
I think its supposed to be a antifighter ship? :?:

just give it antifghter and escort trait Maybe a couple of dice phasing pulse cannon in F arc..........

:)
 
Actually I was just thinking on the way to work this morning that I might work out some stats for a 'Shadow Corvette' or something along those lines using the old AOG large scale fighter mini and give it escort and antifighter (and virtually no weapons whatsoever)....
 
Isn't there a web site somewhere that does 'not quite' ships? I saw the not quite BSG ships they did, zylons and collonial, or something like that.
 
Yeah I cant remember the name of the site (seem to have lost the link I used to have to it :? ) but they used to do a nice range of 'Galactic Minatures' which inluded such interesting minaitaures as the Cobra fighter and the Zylon Baseships.... :P

Oh the subtlety was staggering (but the minis are actually pretty damn sweet :D)
 
Yes, it is meant to be an anti-fighter ship. I would prefer it with the escort and anti-fighter trait as well, but designed it around the previous "the shadows don't care about fighters discussions from before". The idea is that it is still small and manuverable enough to count as turreted (like a fighter) and not actually turreted per-se. I more or less just made it stat some where between the scout and the fighter. It is true though that it would be an ISA killer ship, so it probably is too much - alas.

Just thinking about how to fill that skirmish slot for the Shadow....er....I mean, the Dark Ones.
 
I do like - be interested to see what it looked like with the front prongs rasied as if attacking!?

as ever great work! :D
 
thanks for the resonance, folks.

the Dark Ones Schwerer Jäger ( he he he...one moment, this is not copyrighted if i type it in my language, or???
Beware, a lot of zynism... :twisted: ) was an "quick idea" ,how sayed.

I mean the stats are good. I have a lot of ideas for other black spidey ships...corvettes includes. :wink:
And i want to make copys of this vessel, i need a few more for ME... :wink:
 
Actually I think youll find your fairly safe with 'Shadows' since I'd wager its quite hard to copywrite the name Shadows since B5 is hardly the only thing to use that particular word.... ;)
