Shadow Gap Filler

[Da Boss]

The idea of them being ships rather than fighters is a good one - they are substantially larger than the Narn ones.................probbaly as big as the Blue Star or the new EA ship?

Maybe if urobach81v2.0 can do his shadow ships mongoose might look at extending the range of ships available. It would give them the variety that they need. Even a Heavy fighter would also be good. I really like the chaser design.

interesting tread....i am work currently on a new shadow ship..after my finished new ships for centauri,narn and ea,now are the shadows needs some new ships. :wink:
ships like this are my projects for the future... hell...a lot of work be in front of me. 8)

Actually they are shown blasting Narn fighters at the end of season one, so if anything their main gun should also be anti-flighter. :shock:

Those Narn failed their dodge. Just because a weapon kills a fighter or two, doesn't mean it is specifically designed for killing fighters!

Also try firing the molecular slicer from a shadow ship at a fligth or two of Frazis and see what happens

Oh look theyre alll dead arent they? Now theres a surprise

I think every single one was destoyed by each shot - without exception and remembering these are the people who "never miss" (except White Stars of course ). How else do we decide guns are anti fighter or not?

And yes I have seen fighters dodging shadow beams..............

 

[katadder]

actually fighters in B5 never seem to dodge anything coming their direction. they are killed quite efficiently by ships main guns all the time. as for fighters dying from one shot from a shadow ship - whats it got an 8AD (or is it 6, cant remember) SAP beam? starting at 2s to hit and with the frazis only having a 3+ dodge. think you can see why they couldnt dodge that in game either.

Love the profile of the shadow chaser

 

[Da Boss]

agreed the designs look very cool - now just need to see them in 1st of 2nd Ed!

i think i have it finished earlyer ... :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
i must sculpt the complete shadow chaser design from greenstuff..a hell of work. :roll: but the first parts are finished. time will see,my friends. 8)

Suppose a Shadow carrier could be Green stuff added to Shadow ship to give it bloated look.

Yes.
It's just close enough to the shadow hunter to be used as such without being a biotech coatrack. It looks superb - and I'd love to see it replace the proper hunter.

[Da Boss]

MGP like to build flying bricks and subwoofers...but not so nice stuff like this..or i am wrong with this argument :?: :lol:

 

[Da Boss]

To be fair _ I guess they are harder to make? But would look so cool..........and the First Ones need those extra ships...........
