While I do love the Sovereign class (as you said: sexy curves) I think my vote is more for the Intrepid class (a la Voyager). Just a personal preference.Matthew94 said:I always thought the Enterprise-E was rather cool. I shall says what you said "dem curves"
Also the Leviathan from Eve Online. Thing looks like it was hewn from a mountain!
Finally! Glad to know I'm not the only person here who liked that show. Love that ship, yeah she's painfully old and falling apart she's still soaring through the universe.Doogan said:The Destiny
Ah yes, the old girl herself. Freaking cried when her end came... D:MammothBlade said:Battlestar Galactica.
Her weapons and systems may be a bit outdated and primitive by sci-fi standards, but she has armour that can withstand a direct freaking nuclear hit, and those "primitive" systems are hardened against cyber attack.
She's a tough old bird, granted she has no las weapons but damn she fight with the best of them.

You just cant beat the classics.
Armament:
2x Modified Quad-lasers
Hidden ground defense turret
Landing jets can be used as weapons
Concussion missile launchers hidden in front of ship
2x MAC railguns
3x Shiva Nuclear missiles
26x Oversized Archer Rocketpods (60 missiles each)
8x 50mm Autocannons
Armament:
Varies by amount and type based on player preferance and upgrades, but it can carry a max of 6x forward firing weapons and 5x flexible turrets.
Interesting notes:
When the ship absorbs (yes, absorbs) alien artifacts hidden in the universe (which it can detect them), the ship grows. That is not a figure of speech, it GROWS. LITERALLY GETS BIGGER! It always stays the same relative size (think Millienium Falcon size), but its wings, body, and engines GROW BIGGER based on how the player chooses to upgrade the ship.
Upgrading the wings allows carrying of more forward firing weapons (max 6) and increases manuveralbility.
Upgrading the Body increases hitpoints, allows more equipment (landing computers, cargo drones, scan jammers, etc.) to be carried, and allowes more turrets (max 5) on the ship.
Upgrading the engines makes the ship faster, and allows for powerful power systems, which do everything from make shilds last longer, give weapons more power, and increase afterburner times.

It's from Kinetic Void [http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/seanpollman/kinetic-void]. I keep spruiking it because I'd really like it to get made.Orcus The Ultimate said:WTF is this game's engine ?Antitonic said:
...What? All the "normal" ones have been taken.
I like the Serenity from Firefly personally.
Also, question: Does the TARDIS count as a spaceship if it goes through time and space (even though it's a police box)?

The Pirate Battleship from Homeworld 2's "Pirate Mod"
In all the games I have used this beauty I have never lost one (closest I've ever come is having one go down to 33% after killing most of the enemy fleet single-handedly) It has double the firepower of its Hiigaran and Vaygr equivalents, has an ungodly amount of health and moves faster than anything it's size has a right to. They're limited to 2 per player but tbh even one guarantees a win a good deal of the time.

Vaguely remember something similar on the map for the AD&D starter set many, many moons ago.thaluikhain said:
OT: Serenity followed by the Falcon, I'd always go with a well-loved pile of junk than a soulless fancy-pants thing.
Dammit, I was going to use the second one.DJjaffacake said:I can't believe neither of these has appeared yet:
