Hello everyone,

I'd like to present to you the last 'mini-super capital' for United Aurora Federation. This prototype ship have been made in Avorion because its far more engaging for me to do so in a game than staring at a blank canvas for hours on end. However there are some issues. The ship is suppose to have an 'X' shaped prongs instead of vertical. I can't be arsed to do that because it'll take too much time. There's also the fact that Starsector is a 2D game, so I'm unable to portray that perfectly as a sprite.Here's a compromise; I will merge the side profile's prong silhouette with the main hull instead!

Another question for you guys:As you can see in one of the screenshot, the battleship is armed with coax missile launchers and guns. However, Vioceleste is canonically armed with a Megabreve-esque along with lots of other missile arrays.

So, do you guys prefer...

Guns only? Missiles only? Hybrid? Wadaya think?

Hybrid. The goal of this ship is to lay siege. What if the enemy has a lot of PD ? The ship is rendered harlmess. What if he has good shields ? Use the firepower of your guns then your missles to overload their defenses and when the shields fails, the missiles are here to destroy that ship.

Focusing on it's purpose too much will make it vulnerable to everything else. Therefore hybrid since it's a jack of all trades. Can counter fighters and even ships without being mediocre but still excel in sieging.

I would prefer a big gun!

Megabreve confirmed! I like it when missile ships have other weapons to defend themselves with. So a Hybrid.
