Re: I LOVE Space Empires IV Ships!
You may be thinking of the Flora, or the Sonne, which are both from TDM. The latest Devnull borrowed them.
I like Xiati, Phong, Praetorian (overall.. I think their Light Cruiser and Cruiser pics leave something to be desired)..
I like a lot of the shipsets, really. I -don't- like the Sergetti, Terran, and Xi'Chung shipsets..
With apologies to Renegade 13, the Jraenar are too Star Trekish for my taste.

Re: I LOVE Space Empires IV Ships!
Lol, so you've noticed my tendency to choose the Jraenar for my games?? I don't know what it is I like about them. Though I must say, their dreadnought isn't quite like I'd have made it. Battleship is my favorite, then battlecruiser, then light cruiser.
Here's my favorite stock shipsets, in descending order:
- Jraenar
- Xiati
- Cue Cappa (maybe)

Re: I LOVE Space Empires IV Ships!
Norak, Abbiddon or Phong for me. I like those metal giant warship looking shipsets! You can tell all 3 of these races design their ships with "we mean business" in mind!

The Terran ships are appalling. Ugly, dull and difficult to distinguish from one another. Plus the runways on the carriers look more like stupid sticky-out things then runways unless you know what you're looking at.

I really am beginning to wonder how many times I'm going to have to apologize for the Terrans. I really don't know what went wrong there. But I'm working on updating a new Terran shipset which is a lot more in line with what I was going for originally. You can see the latest addition here:

Re: I LOVE Space Empires IV Ships!
Norak are SO OK. I mean, a Norak Battlecruiser looks more like a massively overpowered Dreadnought to me... they're just MADE to look like they're about ten times stronger than they actually are.
And I do not anymore choose the Jraenar becuase they're ST-ish. I've got ample ST shipsets (by - who else - AT) on my HD, I just like the Jraenar because their ships look... well, nice. In SEIII Demo, I often played the "Jraenar" set and named it the Federation.

Re: I LOVE Space Empires IV Ships!
I choose j'raenar because its the only dinosaur-like race... Aside from the organic race thingie, of course, but I don't like their ships too much.

Re: I LOVE Space Empires IV Ships!
I rarely play SEIV anymore lately. I've only used it a couple of times to see if the latest in Capship worked and if there were any bugs. I never ended my turn. In fact, for perhaps the first time in two or three WEEKS, I've played a game (a demo of a game called Spartan) today.
And btw, that "two or three weeks" could be more, but I forgot how much it was exactly.

Re: I LOVE Space Empires IV Ships!
Andres Lescano's SW Empire shipset is by far my favorite.
And without a doubt, my least favorite stock set is the Drushock.

Re: I LOVE Space Empires IV Ships!
My Most Disliked Stock Shipsets:
EEE
Drushocka
Cue Cappa
Cryslonite
Krill
Sergetti
Terran
Toltayan
As for the rest, some I can't really remember (like the Fazrah or the Piundon) and the rest are simply shipsets I like.

Re: I LOVE Space Empires IV Ships!
I like the Xi'Chung (i don't remember if how it's written), they are the closest thing to a shadow crab! at least for me.
