Thanks Al. I often overclutter my stuff, so I'm trying to avoid that here. She's the forward craft of a warship, so I want her to look blunt and tough and covered in armor plates rather than sensor pallets.

Yeah, it looks like this little ship can take a beating. What are the araments? I only see the forward phasers and what I assume is the weapons pod on top. Will that be it, or do you have some secrets hidden up your sleeve?

Ahkileez · 03-27-2008, 12:15 AM

Not sure what to do with the armaments. I don't want to overdo it and turn her into a mini-Defiant - that's not what the ship's for and her mama's already a beast. Maybe put in some micro-torp rockets in the pod along with a couple sensor palettes?

So far she's got the forward phasers and the ones on her nacelles. Put in some rear and underside ones and she should be pretty well covered on that front.

I'm thinking of her as kind of an A-10/Dropship cross. She can do a good deal of damage, but her primary asset is the fact that she can take a hell of a beating on her way in/out.

Oh that reminds me of what I wanted to ask you. With all these uniform variants is there any heavy combat suits? Some sort of light armor? Don't know if that's very trek like though. It's probably just me playing Halo 3 way too much.

Ahkileez · 03-27-2008, 04:20 AM

I don't have any kind of 'solid' armor. Not yet anyway.

But I did make some flexible light-combat armor. It's just a more complete version of what you see in the LCU uniform variant there.

Nice idea.

PRISM?
Something like a rocketeer or the ARC?

What's the difference between standart medical, the medical doctor and the lifesaver? I mean, they're all about medical, okay. And the lifesaver could be an emergency-medo, okay, but I always thought that medical doctors only differ from the rest of he crew by their medical tricorder..

Ahkileez · 03-27-2008, 07:35 AM

PRISM was a special forces unit in an old RPG org I was in. Not sure what you mean by a Rocketeer or an ARC though.

The standard teal-shoulder uniform and the medical doctor/lifesaver I figure would be a matter of 'conscientious objector' status. A bit like how, in civilized combat terms, you shouldn't attack ambulance trucks, medics, hospitals etc. due to convention. These non-combatant doctors and medic/lifesaver personnel would be unarmed. A doctor who chooses to fight would wear black (or science/counselor/whomever else would wear teal).

I don't think I ever saw McCoy do any shooting. Voyager's doctor probably wouldn't fight, I don't think Phlox did either. They'd be non-combatant medical docs in white on the battlefield. Doctor Crusher and Doctor Bashir both did a fair deal of fighting, so if they were on the field they'd be in black, and armed.

Make sense?

That's pretty cool, dude. I like it.

Ahkileez · 03-27-2008, 05:28 PM

Thanks Al

Aresius · 03-27-2008, 09:55 PM

Aye, makes sense.

Nice, okay; Rocketeers: Rocket troopers.
ARC: Advanced Recon Commando. StarWars term, sry. They're something like a specialised task force.

And now you can kill me form using a StarWars term in StarTrek.
