IVI SPOW-1
Hello again, playing Homeworld, Playing Warhammer 40k, watching Star Wars, and Starship Troopers really inspired me on Orbital/Space Armada battles. Here's the first warship I've created. Voxel pack coming soon! I just want to know whether this should be on it or not
Overview:
Name=IVI SPOW-1 'Fury of Nod' Surigao Class: Patrol Frigate (in game it's just IVI OW-1 'Fury of Nod' Frigate as the name's too long )
Manufacturer/Developer=Isserel Xiang Tze Wu Vehicle Industries, Ty-Resurreccion WARTEC labs, AuTra Tech. (it's a joint venture)
For=Mainly for New Xiao Mei but some units have been sold to the Brotherhood of Nod
Powerplant=4 Small Cold Fusion Reactors
Armament=1x Grade C MS Long Range Plasma Battery. 4x AAlascannons
Capacity=up to 250 troops and 5 light tanks
Top Speeds=150mph Atmospheric, ~700mph Orbital
With the joint venture of 3 major companies and contributions by various other enterprises, New Xiao Mei has finally produced a weapon that may effectively combat Extraterrestrial Invasion. The IVI Self Powered Orbital Warship Model 1 (IVI SPOW-1) 'Quan Tou' (or 'Fury of Nod' for Nod deliveries) is a warship developed by IVI using various technologies and equipment that is capable of entering Low Orbit and even pseudo hover suspension status in atmospheric levels. The 'Quan Tou' is armed with a Medium Grade, Moderate Strength, Long Range Plasma Cannon that can accurately propel Medium Grade orbs of superheated plasma to a distance of 35km and inaccurately to a distance of 60km. To combat fighters, fighter bombers and boarding ships, the 'Quan Tou' has four High Powered medium range laser batteries for the task. In atmospheric levels, much of the power generated by the 'Quan Tou's reactors is directed to counter the powerful effects of the earth's gravity. Moreover, new high strength E/B-field shields are implemented on majority of the 'Quan Tou's hull thus decreasing the strength of incoming projectiles and energy based weapons. The mobility of the 'Quan Tou' is low but that's something that warships inpreventably come with.
Even though the 'Quan Tou' is the first successful and combat worthy ship that New Xiao Mei has produced, it can do little to annihiliate the hundreds of Tiberium Monster Vein colonies in far western Mongolia, Afghanistan, Turkmenkistan, and other stan-stan countries that plague the borders of New Xiao Mei every week. That's because extreme frequent Ion storms there short circuit any electronic devices, shielded or not.
Pros:Devastating Firepower (15 shots will destroy any heavy building, 10 shots any light building), Extreme Range (40), High HP (4000), heavy armor.
Cons: 6000$ to produce 1. After barrage of 5 plasma shots, the Quan Tou goes into a cruise to recharge the Plasma battery (to add balance to this unit). BuildLimit=4, can be taken down by enough MLRS, Scarabs and other anti aircraft units

A nicely designed voxel, with an interesting concept..
Not sure how to take the idea of starships in TS just yet _________________ If there is a problem on the forums, PM me. QUICK_EDIT
HAHA! you guys are absolutely right! I was hoping you wouldn't notice but you did anyway . It does look like a Basketball footwear . I had no intention of it looking that way but it did anyway . I'm still making some ships and I'm trying to make them not turn out to be a Nike promotion advertisment vehicle of some kind QUICK_EDIT
