It sounds like Ltobvious' fleet is half human, half alien.

Also, what are his ships like?

Colonel Michael Wolfe
Human, Brown hair, carries a Colt .38 passed down in his family for over four hundred years, no helmet, armor is light gray with yellow stripes on the shoulders, and uniform is dark gray.

Speaks in Mr. Burns's voice?

The top one was my example, the awesome one on the bottom is Olo's version.

I was thinking something along the lines of a pist off, futuristic Patton, but Mr. Burns sounds eeexcellent.

Ah, you beat me to it, LtObvious.

I started with his fleet, since he expressed the most hearty interest and was first to submit an idea to me.

I'll get to the rest of your fleets soon. I should be fully done within the next few days. In the meantime, I'll update very once in a while, and work on revamping BrikSpace to it's 1.5 status.

Quick LtObvious update:

Top to bottom, left to right:

Destroyer

Fighter

Bomber

Frigate

EDIT: UGH, why is FileSmelt making my images all fuzzy? Hold on, I'll get a better picture up.

EDIT #2: Fixed, clearer image.

EDIT #3: Or not, wtf? It's the forums!!

From what I can see, It looks great. I can't wait to see some the other fleets.

Oh, I have ideas.

I especially look forward to spriting the Reavers. That'll be an exciting new challenge for me.

Quick note: Be absolutely certain to read the rules, and to keep track of the updates. It may be a while before I flag down kidko to update the PDF, so until that gets done I will try to link you to the original Google Notebook.

At the end of the game, could you post some larger versions of the fleets please? They don't have to be that much more detailed, but some of these ships look like good MOC inspirations.

I'll do my best.

Pirates can be members of any species, but they're all criminals.

The Comander is "Captain" Tekaji of d'bothi, an member of the Hoifarik race, who was exiled for... Piracy! He looks similar to a velociarapror, but with less claws.

Pure awesome.

Excellent.

I can see him being a fun character.

One fleet down, and four to go (five once we get one more player).

EDIT: Silly me, I forgot a ship breakdown.

left to right, top to bottom:

Frigate

Destroyer

Cruiser

Flagship/Dreadnaught

Fighter

Bomber

Any additional ships you want (from the rulebook) let me know.

You will be able to assemble your own fleets, but not now, I still have a few things to work out before I let you run rampaging through the ruleset again.

Oh hell yeah! These ships are freaking beautiful!
