Well it looks like I was able to squeeze one last ship out in the limited time I had left today :D

ImageImageImageImage
Rean Frigate

These ships are loaded with turbolasers, eight to be exact, and have significantly improved defenses over their charon counterparts. They do however lack the missile systems that make the charon frigates so fearsome. The number & rate of fire of their turbolaser cannons makes up for it, combined with their additional survivability in combat.
They made up the backbone of the early Coalition fleet, and do the same for the Rean, the missile ships providing long-range support.

Yes they will.

BAD NEWS.

I forgot my harddrive. And I won't be getting it until the monday I get back. Which is not this upcoming monday :P

Sooooooo............ The TSB teaser release is going to be postponed. HOWEVER, I have an out-dated version of TSB, so I can continue working on some other parts on that in the mean-time. I also have a good deal of concept art to get done as well, and to plan out the wyvera mod, which I made a spreadsheet already of proposed stats for various proposed ships...

I'm currently working on concept art for the various corporate cruisers/ships.

Timeline is ~80% complete
Then I'll send it by george, and if it works out with no significant changes, I will put it up here.

More like,

*Day of TSB final full release*

Wolfy - "Hey guys, TSB is done now."

Us - *silence because we're all old and senile and nobody remembers transcendence because it's now version 5.0 and we haven't played it for twenty years*

Sorry Wolfy :P I had to. :D

Ok, the Gen 3 CSC is in (that's the normal CSC you see in-game, graphically, except it will be using d1gdug's 40 facing CSC graphic, simply for consistency's sake.

Anyways, it has quad Tev9s, quad MkV's, and quad auto defense laser turrets. P1300 hexphase as well.

I also added auto defense turrets to the Gen1 & Gen2 CSCs, a laser and turbolaser type respectively.

I'll get a placeholder Gen 4 CSC (using the current graphics for now), simply to test out the equipment, and later I will get its graphics done. (Later = I don't know when, because I'm still not even entirely sure what it would look like)
