Re: The Gorn Imperium
He meant that Kirk shot some diamonds at him with an improvised cannon. 
To me, the Light Cruiser to the Dreadnaught all look a bit lop-sided. Perhaps place them at a slightly different angle so that the far wing isn't completely covered up?

Re: The Gorn Imperium
Very nice! Realistic textures, believable designs, and thematically consistent among the various 'classes' like transports and carriers! The WPs are quite impressive. I hate how so many race designs skimp on the units. These are quite detailed.

Or, as an alternative, remove or minimize the right wing on the other ships. Make the ships sert assymetrical on purpose. Like an outrigger. Would make them a little more unique. There isn't really a reason for a spacegoing vessel to be syumetrical is there? Even if you suppose they need to be atmospheric, it not as if those dinky sufraces woudl generate lift. And for that matter there have been assymetrical aircraft.

Re: The Gorn Imperium
Hmm... that could work too. Just be consistent. |

Re: The Gorn Imperium
hmm, i think the size of the wings is fine. maybe rotaiting them all slightly would let the far wing be seen better, but i honestly think they are fine how they are.
on a side note, i think that Gryph and I were suggesting that they should be especially vulnerable to gunpowder based weapons, if they are being used to shoot diamonds

Re: The Gorn Imperium
My only complaint is that they don't look very much like the Gorn ships I remember from Star Fleet Battles. I remember them using saucers affixed to a single central beam-shaped structure.
Having said that, the shipset looks pretty good, and I assume they'll be heavy seeker (well, plasma torpedo) Users like the Gorn from Star Trek/SFB...

Re: The Gorn Imperium
Great! I love the Gorn and always played them when playing Star Fleet Battles (1 and 2). I agree with Tsaarx that while these ships don't look like those in SFB, they are damn nice and will serve very nicely!
Cheers!
