Default For Honor, and no mercy !

Royal Manticoran Navy at your service !
It does not have its own AI, if anybody wants to put one for unmoded SE, I would greatly appreciate. I may make one for Proportions if find time.
1048292162.ZIP

I'm not satisfied with some pictures and will try to improve this shipset.

Very nice Shipset!

Is that a Grav Lance sticking out of the Escort? If so, nice touch

Were the Manticoran ships plain silver? The design concepts are nice but the plain silvery surfaces don't look right. Find some good textures for it.

Yes, they are plain white: From "Honor Among Enemies" - "...she (AMN Derfflinger) was a haze grey instead of white both the RMN and PN favored". There must be some other references that RMN ships are all white. Actually, I used "faze" texture ! It can be seen with 1024 resolution but not with 800

Nice set. Two minor quibbles, aside from the already noted name bug.

-you forgot to delete mephisto's terran_ai_general file. it's included.

-Seeing Manticore with 50% trade is really, really ammusing.

Yeah, I just picked up the first race at random as an AI Sorry about that.

The "real" Manticore AI should have "natural merchants" advanced trade, "merchant" culture and some trade bonus I think.

Hmm, No, it just happen. What is the SE grav lance anlog ? Shield generators killing weapon ? It would be nice to include it into some designs !

I forget the exact effect of the Grav Lance, but something that goes through shields and burns out shield generators would probably fit the bill.

Is it possible to ram a ship but not destroy both ships? The Grav Lance was a ramming weapon, wasen't it?
