I'm afraid Alliance is already used by the 'alien Alliance'.

Caesar, I can't say. I should test my ships against one. Will post results.
This thing has 350 HP only. A Dreadnought.
My frigates have more. >_>

EDIT:
Astra'ath - Won (Aegis Shields? What Aegis Shields?)
Avalanche - Draw (Neither side was making much damage, but it was clear the Avalanche can't get past the Aegis Shields. While she's fast, her turning rate is way too slow.
DEATHSHIP - Lost (Too slow, and gets slaughtered fairly quickly.)
Hammerhead Attack Frigate - Won (The battle is pretty much a guaranteed victory if you're fast enough.)

Yeah, I can see already that you just need to be fast enough. Those Aegis Deflectors are too vulnerable, though on purpose.

Kane's Infamous Savage Stormtroopers.

I even have a logo. Posting from phone, you'll see it soon.




Well?

Was also what I did. I just turned around the damn ship and shot the deflectors. Then continuing to shoot the back proved.. Easy.

That Alien Dreadnought is extremely tough against capital ships (slow speed, slow turning rate), but pit a patrol ship against it and it's pretty much dead. That's excellent design right there, good job aliens.



Well?

It's such a shame you could see that coming from a mile away. >_>
Thanks but no, I'll go with the serious suggestions.
Speaking of which, maybe I should just go with something like the Meritocracy, would fit in with all the other simple names in this setting.

A bit too specialized, that ship.

You really shouldn't compare any of my ships and the game's ships. The Watchman - a frigate - dealt with an Alien Cruiser without much trouble.
I really wish the game's forums had ships made with the game's style, and not these weird coloured parts. They don't exactly fit in with the others, but I really need some overpowered ship that could take on the Astra'ath alone.

I can give you my Boom, it's so ridiculosly overpowered that four Booms can't destroy one Boom, it's simply an indestructible box of death :D

I could spend some time and try to make some for you, if you want.
Perhaps even more ships. I can't make 'em right now, though. Bit busy, and BF slows down my computer incredibly.

Thanks. .sb4 is the ship blueprint, so you can edit it in Shipmaker, and .shp is what is used in the game.

EDIT: what is this I don't even

That's what happens when i get carried away, i made the ship and all, and just hit mirror, now it has around 20 or so deflectors, point defences and other stuff, plus a shitton of almost every longer ranged gun in the game :D

I only use the mirror function to see if the guns/sections are in parallel positions.

I tested it. Astra'ath kept firing, but it probably has enough deflectors to cover it whole, and those impeders won't let any shots near it.
Surprisingly, it took Boom ages to destroy any of Astra'ath's sections. It did cut off all it's guns on one side though. Didn't watch it to the end, would've taken too long.
I'd actually like the see the equilevant of the Astra'ath; incredibly powerful but still beatable with enough firepower and numbers.

I don't like the Mirror function, mainly because it clones almost every single gun and section if you haven't used it from the very start. I prefer to just clone and flip vertically
if I want symmetry.
