WCS:CL Mod Updates (UPDATED 11-20-03)

I've already updated it a bit. All the views now 'synch up', so it fits together like a real blueprint dealy. I also added a view of the bottom, which we see in some detail on WCA - mainly because I wanted to make sure that future 3D modellers include that orange 'C' marking at the front.

Are those the ships that are around the Tiger's Claw in the WCATV episode "Invisible Enemy" (number 11 or 10 I think)?
I remember those ships looked pretty good, whatever they were.
 
Those were transports. This is a light cruiser, which appears in approximately six frames of 'Chain of Command'. (The 'side nacelles' appear in several Confed capship designs on WCA).

If I can figure out how to spruce this up a bit, I'd be interested in doing a whole set of WCA ship layouts.
 
LOAF, you know if there was any screenshots of the Concordia's escorts in the WC movie?
 
They were all Supercruiser models in the actual scenes, unfortunately - although there's a profile view of the real ships on the disc Tolwyn sends to Sansky & Gerald.
 
Speculation time: how much can this estimate be "tweaked" to account for perspective? What are the orange stripes, especially the two that are visible from the front? Where are the weapons located? Are the two visible turrets AMG/other capital level weaponry or are they point defence lasers? Are those *two* landing bays underneath or is the bottom one a scoop of some sort?

Could the Connie be used as the BCrusier for the WC2 era?

i'm about to beat some people down

for the 4th or 5th time

forget replacing ships

think of it this way

instead of thinking about say the Concordia replacing the Battlecruiser in the WCS:CL Part 2 (aka WC2) think of it this way, your getting a concordia Dreadnaught, among other ships that were around in that era.

so ignore the slots

i.e capships will include atleast
Concordia Fleet Carrier
Bengal Strike Carrier
Confederation Dreadnaught
Waterloo Cruiser
Gilgamesh Destroyer
Exeter Destroyer
etc...


better yet i'm gonna finish the ship slot areas for the game so yall can see what i'm just talking about.

Oops, they're right, Bob - you need the rudder. That'll piss Concordia off;)

They seem to be bays on the 'flyover' on WCA. The smaller one is too short for a fighter, so I'm assuming it's some kind of missile (CSM) launcher.

WCA's green turrets seem to be single-mount lasers - they show up throughout the series.

I can put together some speculative specs/history for the thing when I get home from France on Tuesday.

Well I don't have a rudder - but I do have something almost as good:

hi!

i like the ships designs from the cartoon much more then that from the movie,.. and by the way the story of the cartoon is also much better then that from the movie.

but ion the cartoon tje design of the carrier is that of the flagship of trakath in WC3 and the flagship of trakath looks like a fralthi V,... something like that.

but doesnt matter,.. sadness that the cartoon is over,... but fortunatly i ve downloaded all the episodes and i hope the WCCIC keeps it on the server for ever :D

but to the ships,... if you wanna use ships from the movie for the mod, i had no problem with that
