Behold the greatest spacefighter in the Freespace franchise.

always thought the idea of flying saucers being launched like frisbees would be funny/cool

I feel disappointed in this thread, but I can't quite explain why. There are some very classic ships here, after all. I suppose it's because flying office buildings. Simple boxes with engines. Maybe a few embellishments here and there, but nothing that really takes advantage of the lacking need for aerodynamics in space.Am I really wondering where all the flying O'neill Cylinders are? Hm...

> brainstorm settings Mad respect for those who do, but as a GM, I always was satisfied with what was readily available to me.> Star Wars: KOTOR > WH40k > Firefly/Serenity > Galaxy's Edge LLC > and more!There's something I really like about the dynamics of a space transport, its captain, its crew... The only thing I could really want from a new sci-fi setting is more fighter escorts.

Fucking love Taiidan designs from Homeworld! Their cruisers are so sexy!

Anon10/02/26, 06:34No.98766398

Sort of related question. If anyone has any inspiration that'd fit this:In my setting there's a sort of liminal subspace called the Veil and containing a lattice that wraps around the world, it's kind of a sunless skies or dEAD gODS style of unconstructed potential as a scaffolding for reality. Tech is pulpy 1940s with some fantasy tropes and they graduated to airship.Would be cool to have a Veil ship. They have the equivalent of lasers and such. Any ideas that would be similar to airships but metal and weird?

Warning: this selection of starships require Elite Spaceball Knowledge™ to appreciate.

Why fly a spaceship when you can travel space by surfing the stars, man

Always had a soft spot for this ship. When I GM Traveler I imagined it was a CEO's private/secret spaceship not quite a yacht but something flashy to impress his date with. Any ways the players had to steal it for survival and turn what was meant for 1 super wealthy person into living quarters for 12 people.

You guys into sleek ships or bulky ships?Personally, I enjoy bulky ones, especially if they're human ships, being these big industrial flying brick shit houses going up against more advanced races

>players are space pirates aboard a smaller carrier type ship that they can upgrade and fly together >They each have their own fighter style ship that they can customize individually >They upgrade other skills using different points than what they upgrade their ships with >They go on adventures Realized that i'm thinking outlaw star but everyone can fly their own fighters

still one of my favorite ship designs, and i love that it lands standing up like an old school space rocket instead of docking horizontally like a boat.this series overall had some great ships and they were well illustrated

I quite like the ships from the aquatics expansion for Stellaris https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/developer-diary/stellaris-dev-diary-230-the-art-of-aquatics-ships-the-drake.1495959/ https://www.youtube.com/shorts/n1J5OKeamWQ

I fucking love FreeSpace's fighter designs, and þe GTB Medusa's easily my favorite æsþetically.

>Maybe brainstorm settings. I really liked the industrial setting of wipeout 1/2. A racan rpg would have been cool. It's implied there are colonies but we never see any space faring ships. Not quite a space ship but I think it passes.

Ship Breaker is a Commie as fuck game, but it did have some fun block ships. Too bad that story fucking sucks.

Anon10/14/26, 18:39No.98832335

Spaceships from the Traveller game I'm currently running. Big black ship is a nanite warship, the big yellow one is an alien research ship, the rest are various human warships, couriers, and shuttles.
