And once again, I'm flabberghasted at the construction of this ship in Shape.</p> 2008-06-08T20:25:55+02:00 tag:www.3dvia.com,2007:FA4BDEF0C2D4E6F8 <div> <img src="http://www.3dvia.com/3dsearch/Content/ED4212E3F5C7D9EB_C1.jpg?DefaultImage=user_photo_default_small.gif"/> </div> <p>Howitzer was a short-hand I was using to mean "Big-Ugly Gun". The idea is that the Imperium designs ships for war, making them easier targets for Pirates that use smaller ships...and are not trying to destroy the ships in open combat. What I want to avoid is something like Star Trek: Shattered Universe )I played a lot this weekend) where you just keep shooting over and over again at a single target. At this point I am looking at the possibility of a level where te player running a baracade in a large-ish ship (that doesn't meanuver well). Getting hit by one of these weapons would be bad.</p> 2008-06-09T03:02:53+02:00
