[WIP] Star Wars Ships - Imperial Edition

[Shushoni]

Heyo. It'sa me. Jar-Ja-... wait, no. Wrong person.

So, some of you may have heard/seen these on the Workshop:

Rebel Alliance Ships
and
New Republic Ships

Well, I put those together. But right now, I need some of your guys' help.

I'm working on what ships should be included in the Galactic Empire shipset. So far, this is what I've got:

Spoiler

Corvette:
-Corellian Heavy Corvette
-Arquitens Light Cruiser
-Bayonet Light Cruiser

Destroyer:
-Carrack Light Cruiser
-Lancer Frigate
-Nebulon-B2 Frigate

Cruiser:
-Loronar Strike Cruiser
-Vindicator Cruiser
-Victory II Star Destroyer
-Acclamator Star Destroyer

Battleship:
-Tector Star Destroyer
-Imperial I Star Destroyer
-Imperial II Star Destroyer
-Dominator Star Destroyer
-Allegiance Star Destroyer


Fighter: TIE Fighter (Duh)
Bomber: TIE Bomber (Double duh)

Science Ship: IPV-1
Transport: Star Galleon
Droppod: Sentinel
Colony: Modular Taskforce Cruiser
Constructor: Mining Ship

Now, I'm pretty set on the corvettes and destroyers but if someone provides an excellent argument I'm willing to change those. What I am really looking for though, is suggestions for the cruisers and battleships. The way I set it up, there should be 4 cruisers and 6 battleships. I don't like using the same model for multiple modules. It just feels clunky (I know I did with the NR ships, but that will be fixed).

Now, before anyone says anything THERE WON'T BE ANY SUPER STAR DESTROYERS. Their sheer size, scale, and power throw off the scale of everything else. And I personally don't believe a vanilla ship size will ever do them justice. And seeing as right now the mods with ship sizes that might fit it simply rescale battleship models, I just won't do it. There would have to be a way to designate a primary custom mesh, and if that mesh isn't found, be able to designate a secondary vanilla model. And I just don't see that happening.

I will also be using this thread for any more suggestions I may want and large updates I may have for this whole series that I have going on in my head.

 

[Shushoni]

Up. Nothing?

 

[Warial]

Maybe you could fit Quasar Fire-class carrier somewhere?

 

[Rovert10]

Where are you getting a Modular Taskforce Cruiser? Unless you got permission from Thrawn's Revenge or YVaW. There isn't a free one laying around.
I would put the Acclamator as your transport/colony ship instead. Even during the Clone Wars is it was relegated to mostly just transport anyways.

 

[Max Loef]

Would have preffered if you asked if you could use my models, but you creditted me so its fine. Please do spell my name Right though

 

[Shushoni]

Acclamator would make a good colony ship. The mtc would be from the original Warlords hw2 mod.

Max, I apologize for not asking you directly. I did contact Lavo about permissions and he pointed out which ones were yours and stated they were good for public use as long as credit was given. Unless I misunderstood what models he was referring to.

The quasar would more belong in the rebel pack. If I was to add a carrier it would be the escort carrier. I was thinking of maybe putting the dreadnaught in this, the NR, and the republic pack since it was such a widely used design.

no its completely fine m8! great work btw!

I guess I don't know about these ships' sizes in Star Wars lore, but naval terminology implies that the Lancer Frigate and Nebulon-B2 Frigate would be much more comfortable in the Corvette classification rather than the Destroyer.

 

[ifail]

Have you looked up Sins of the solar empire models? if you can use those as template? alot of em have some nice models//

 

[MarcoK]

Have you cancelled this?

 

[Shushoni]

Not cancelled. But it has been put on the backburner as of right now.

 

[MarcoK]

That's both good and sad to hear Shushoni. I hope you'll eventually come back to this, but thanks for the reply an any event.
