Hey folks, the fleet is done! have a look!

The Twin Ships, Romulus a Remus. (Ganymede class Cruisers)
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk31 ... CF0007.jpg

Found together floating in deep space, devoid of crew and their data systems devoid of information on their fate.  These ships were quickly recommissioned by the nomads and have served with purpose and distinction for generations.  One strange note is that the crews of these two ships believe it to be haunted by the spirits of their previous crews, bent on making sure that the ships do not fall ever again.


The Old Warhorses, Epona and Equis. Callisto Class Cruisers.
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk31 ... CF0011.jpg

These two vessels have served the diasporex for thousands of years, and have from time to time served in the Earthseed defense force during times of strife for the nomads.  Currently on duty on the Eastern Fringe, Their crews tend to refer to the ships as "Eccentric", and having a rather sick sense of humor.

The Three Angels. Metatron, Gabriel, and Uriel. Europa Class Cruisers
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk31 ... CF0012.jpg
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk31 ... CF0013.jpg

The "Three Angels" refer to the core of the Eastern Fringe fleet, the three carrier vessels that run expeditionary missions away from the fleet when the larger combat vessels cannot be called upon.  The crews of these ships are considered the elites of the fleet, charged with fighter and bomber support of their charges. The Uriel has had extensive retro-fitting due to damage suffered in combat against the Imperium, and thus, has upgraded engines and an experimental "Deck" gun.

The Three Goddesses, Isis, Astarte, Athena. Jupiter class Command Vessel and Io Class Grand Cruisers.
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk31 ... CF0015.jpg
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk31 ... 0017-1.jpg

The jewels of the fleet, these ships are only called upon in times of great need. The homes of the commanding senators and fleet commanders, these ships are artifacts of a more civilized era of humanity, and are cherished for it.  the Isis and Astarte are two of the rarest ships in existence, the Io Class Grand cruiser, precursor to the Repulsive. All three ships have experimental "Deck Guns", though it is not known how effective they are.  The Athena dates back to before the dark age of technology, and is a marvel of technology long lost to humanity.  Rumor has it that the Adeptus Mechanis has a price on the ships head enough to make any admiral in the galaxy try to take her as a prize

Hi and welcome Zelnik,
Sorry to say but you're getting a bit too much glare from the natural light but from what I could make out they all look great. I love the blue dappling around the edges. Thanks for posting. Oh, and great fleet name too.  :cool:

Thanks :D

They are my jewels, and proudly stand in my display case :D

I really wanted a futuristic, super-advanced look.

Hi Warhead,

for the Diasporex rules you should check Warp Rift 15!

Will do, thanks.  :agree:

Er, em... any chance of a link? I have tried looking for it but my navigator couldn't find his starboard docking port using both scanners if his life depended on it... that's what happens when you hire an Ogryn I suppose.

Oh i have played with them, make no mistake.  They are a beast onto their own, with potent ships and impressive upgrades.

My only major question is in the command choices... can you purchase more then one fleet commander? can you take a high senator AND a fleet commander?


Also i have some balance issues.

Enhanced Armor+Enhanced Shields+Shield capacitors= Invincible battleship.
Every time i have given this to my jupiter, it has never died or been crippled in combat.  Fun, yes, but 6+ armor with 5 shields, each with a 5+ save? dude!!
