I see AT is using his trademark universal Satellite pic http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
Looks great, AT!

The set was inspired by BK as were the race details and Emblem. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif Just hope you all enjoy the set.

So... when are you going to do the Kodon armada?
(Two bits to whoever gets the reference)

I believe that would be the <font color="brown">Ko-Dan Armada</font>, of the Last Starfighter, you're speaking of. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif
I'll take my two bits now. Actually, one for me and one for <font color="red">AT</font>. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif
And the name is actually a coincedence. It was inspired by a Conan the Barbarian reference. It was derived from the name of an ancient city and it's unique people.

Kohan, immortal soveriegns.
Cohan, the barbarian, discworld.
Can anybody take that further?
Shipset is excellent. Not a conan fan, so I don't get the reference.

Not a major one, just made in passing. Liked the name so I borrowed it.
<font color="red">AT</font> really did a terrific job, didn't he. Turned out damn fine.

I concur, and excellent shipset. Kind of reminds me of the Kzintus(?) from SE2. (The blue guys!). http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Wow, that is an excellent shipset! I'm very impressed! The only tweak I might suggest would be zooming out slightly on the portrait views of the smaller ships (escort, frigate, destroyer), so they are noticably smaller than the cruisers. OTOH, I guess one rarely sees the portraits side-by-side except in a shipset view, but still.

Thanks guys. Fyron has hosted the set over on SE.net so please check it out when you have a chance. The Xurian (http://www.spaceempires.net/home/shipyards-details-49-Xurian_Confederacy.html)
PvK, I agree, in retrospect they should be made smaller, but I at the time I wanted to be differant. Oh well. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Another extremely nice set Atrocities. I wish I had even half your talent!

Indeed a fine set, complete with AT's signature Satellite http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Erm... Atrocities, are you sure those are your ships? I hate to accuse you of plagiarism, but they look suspiciously identical to the Latrice set from Eclipse Mod... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif
edit: Sorry, I didn't read your announcement over at SEnet... I didn't realize they were your set from STmod! Now I wonder whether Kevin Arisa bothered to credit you for them... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

Wow, <font color="blue">S_I_U</font>, you really have a thing going about those satellites, huh? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif
Regardless, it's another terrific set, <font color="red">AT</font>. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif Great to see it get such a good presentation outside of the ST Mod. Very nicely done. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

The Satellites are an indicator that the set is one of mine.

Thanks. I still am working on a set dealing with some German serial but it has stalled for the moment while I try to figure out how do some things. Hopefully it will be out soon.

Clever idea with the satellites. Kind of a trademark, huh? I was wondering whatever became of the German set you were working on. I remember how cool your preview images were.

Been working with another member on them. I just ran into a road block while designing a few of the ships that I haven't yet figured out how to get around. Am working on it. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Great looking shipsets, AT. Can't wait to see how they do in action.

I'm not saying the sats are ugly (quite the contrary actually), but it struck me that AT uses that same sat for just about all his sets.

No biggie. I was just giving you a hard time for the fun of it...
