This ship and another you made have become two of my favorite to use. In ship builder when you make these shorter on the width and height but super long, there crazy looking and with collision on max you can cleave ships apart ramming them.

I'll admit I took them right off my not-a-javelin-replica :)

That engine cluster is very reminiscent of the Javelin from Star Citizen. Very nice!

Glad to hear it holds up well while upscaled (even with modifications)

The reworked Rondel, Katar and 4 other ships will be uploaded this friday. There is, as of right now, no plans for a 15 slot ship. The line will cap out at 12 slots.

@Drazhill this ship scales well i am currently using it as a 15+ class ship in a hardcore server, i did modify the insides a little bit but overall the ship is still sitting at .31 roll with nearly 85m shields. I only seen one other ship design with better turning capacity at 15+. So that's impressive.

If I might suggest something? How would you feel about smaller ships maybe having engine clusters that have just 2 of the small horizontal units per side? That way you could set up a more compelling (for lack of a better word) progression from the 4 to 8, then the 8 with maybe 2 bigger vertical main engines, and a (semi) final version with the quad angled mains.

Really impressive work by the way. It's always lovely to see designers that can build an evolving yet still visually related set of ships. Your skills are top tier and it's such a treat to see new stuff coming out for the game. Thank you for this!

I am currently reworking the Rondel and Katar with a Version 2 to fit in with an 8 and a 10 slot ship.

The downside of this is that only the 10 slot will have the full engine cluster with the 8 slot ship having 8 and the 6 and 5 slot ship having 4 engines. I'll be uploading these ships separately as a set of 4, so people can still use the two originals, should people prefer these.

Ok that engine cluster design is awakening things in me. More please!

Avorion is our life, a low bow to the master!

Nice design, i want to see ships with 8, 10 ,12 and 15 slots.
