Hah both of those work but yes, it looked like many things, except a space ship.  No matter how much you squinted, unfocused your eyes and tilted it left and right.

To me it always looked like it was drawn as a bridge between warship and dropship. I liked it, but to each their own lol.

Love the Impavido, especially the bit of the dropships doing a high-speed insertion into the atmosphere.

Fox does not look like Fox to me, but it's pretty cool.

Hmm.  Marauder648, I was uploading this to the Dropbox file to share and updating the thread, but then realized we don't have the stats for these in a single book.  What are the chances we would ever see that?

Good idea :) I'm also going to work on Delranes Fighting Ships vol 2 to include the re-done 3057 IS ships once they are complete. And this time it will be in landscape, not portrait.

So I was just thinking the Impavido here looks more like the Suffren.  Just saying.  Its still a killer looking ship.

Ahh you spotted that, well that's really a problem of the two designs, they look rather similar.  A box with a cucumber glued to the front.  Don't worry the Suffren is coming.

I did have an idea for a very large shipyard/orbital command base of the SLDF era, more akin to BSG's Scorpia shipyards than "Oh look its a square/rectangle" shipyards in TRO 3057.

Pretty sure the following are correct.

Fearless: http://bg.battletech.com/forums/index.php?topic=52612.0

One version of the Arbitration (there are at least 2 version which will be included in DC's universe, but he's drawing from a pair of designs, so there may actually be 4 versions of it): http://bg.battletech.com/forums/index.php?topic=55163.0

There's only one Arbitation it's special 😜

There's a second design which will look similar in places since it comes from same place but be its own class completely (won't even be same size)

Partial emergence in 3...2...1



From Plog

Quote
Kyushu, This might be a little closer to the original shape than you thought i'd go, and that original was a bit boring.  But not without it's merits.  Additionally i did make some style and shape alterations.  The bottom is broadened and has some seeming wings for the close altitude drops described in the text.  As well as a number of drop holes for individual and specially prepared mechs.  Given the way the ship loads assault teams into dropships three of the docking ports are close to where the mech facilities should be for ease of transfer.  The other is up top and more likely reserved for defense or one that doesn't need rush loading.




Quote
The Suffren has a much more concise shape to it, implying cohesion of design and function.  But it still retains some of the originals design elements just modified.

Yeah i'm really pleased with them :) I like the Suffren as she seems based a bit on the mouse of doom look of the Congress and that Comstar based the design on her.

The Kyushu looks more aggressive too and like she can carry her mech's and dropships.
