these ships were truly a city that would make a one way trip to a new planet.

the are tailored made for a specific planet so that the base on top ends up in geo orbit. 

it has everything needed for life on any planet although no room for luxeries there would be plenty of food and manufacturing facilities to keep the population in it happy just about anywhere they landed or they could just stay in orbit.

very cool design but try uploading with imageshack it took me a few minutes to load it.

yeah..it's pretty much dead. every once and a while someone will post something. but for the most part...yeah...stick it with a fork..cause it's done.

system BIG EARS - maybe not so good looking but very usefull*, max packed with sensors to look for a coming threat

* I usually play with "fog fo war"

F 118 - I tried to recreate something from our world and that's why F118 is here. This tiny fighter is a backbone of my space forces all the time (above attached lasers)

Liberator-class

The Sangheili Alliance's first frigate after the Covanant civil war, it has since been reduced to a reserve role. The frigrate was a test for future frigates designs that continue to use fetures found on this class. Back in the day, the Liberator-class was able to defend convoys, raid enemmy convoys, and handle other frigates in battle. It was also easy to produce and maintain helping it extend the service life. While only a few of these vessels are used in front-line service, many are still in reserve since their engines allow for quick response times.

Guardian-class

Needing a new frigate to help combat the Vorcha Union and Batarian fleets, the Guardian class came to fill that need. Based off lessons from the Liberator-class, the Guardian fetures more a poweful armament, increased armor while keeping the speed the same. Just like the Liberator-class it has been featured as a command vessel, an anti-air platform, an anti-convoy, and a convoy defender. The Sangheili Alliance has come to depend on these vessel to maintain it's borders.

Applause to everyone for keeping this thread alive and sharing your awesome designs!

I made a ship last year and liked it so much I put it in the 2009 Ship Design thread.  This year I made a modification I liked so decided to throw it in here too.

I altered my old design to carry Black Hole Guns rather than Nightmare Torpedoes.  I call it the Gatling-class because the center circle of guns spin like the barrels of a Gatling gun. =D  It doesn't look as impressive in a still picture, but I think it's awesome.  I'm thinking about making the other circle of guns spin in the opposite direction, but I would need to disassemble the whole thing to do it.

Most impressive people!!!  Keep 'em coming!!!!

Disciple-class

For over 300 years since the Covenant Civil War, it was thought that the Covenant had been destroyed. Then five years ago, a massive fleet bearing the Covenant's banner attacked The Sangheili Alliance, Tau Empire, and Systems Alliance. The vessel that formed one the majority of these fleets was the Disciple-class. Disciple-class frigriates are very well crafted frigriates that allow for great indpendence of the ship. Armed with powerful lasers and a mass driver cannon, Disciples can ravage convoys and decimate escorts. While their thick armor and powerful shields allow them to handle most others weopons, they do not have defenses against missle attacks.   

Deacon-class

The Deacon class was created to offset the Disciple's class lack of missle defense, the Deacon is a dangerous corvette. The corvette packs extra lasers and still contains a mass railgun. It does not have the range of the Disciple but it is still very good. Deacon's were created to handle missile bombers and frigates. However it trades shields and armor for the ECM equiment. When combine with Disciple frigates, they make for extremely dangerours hun ter-killer groups. Covenant fleets usaully spot a great number of these to protect thier more valuable ships.

Carpenter-class

The Covenant contruction ship, they have great distance and can noramally outrun almsot any ship. These ships were vital in securing resources and establishing satlites to help secure recently conquored systems. The ease of production allows almsot any planet to with a starbase to build these vessels. Their major draweback is that they have no offenseive or defensive systems of any kind.

Banshee fighter

Although normally an atmosphere fighter, these aircraft have been refiited with an enclosed canopy to allow them to defend planets from invaders in space. Armed with two lasers and a mass drive cannon, the Banshee is a prime attack fighter. It lacks defensive systems however, leaving it to rely on its wopeans and speed to survive.

Pilgrim-class

As missiles began to improve, the defense of the Deacon-class became ineffective and losses began to mount. To fix this problem a new ship was created. The Pilgrim-class features the latest in anti-misslile technology and allows greater survivability. It's weapeon system, while the same of that as the Deacon-class, is not powerful enough to deal with monderen ships of the same class. New research has begun to help increase firepower. While lacking in firepower, the Pilgrim-classes missile defense allow it to survive enough to eliminate its enemmies.

Missionary-class

The Missioonary-class helps the Covenant Empire expand by colonizing new worlds. They are vital in spreading their religion and converting native speices to join them. It is fast to allow quick travel and large enough to allow the new settlers to live well on their way to there destination. They allow the Covenant quickly expand and setup base of operation rather quickly in a system.  They are completly unarmed whci leaves them for easy targets for pirates and enemmies alike.      

I kinda notice there are little to no designs for Korx/Altarian style ships. Are they that hard to imagine or just unattractive enough. whichever it is, I guess I'll be showing off my creativeness with that ship design.... once I upload them.

Next in line the Small Hull fighter:

MS02SL-MIRA

Weapons Included:

Medium Hull ship, and probably my most over decored:

MS03ML-RAGE

Finally with the Huge Hull ship, MS07HL-REMIRAGE.

Nice Designs!
