Summary0001229: Bigger than starship, less than golem idea: Dreadnaught
Descriptionthere NEEDS to be a Dreadnaught in this new class. there are two ways to impliment it.

easy way: the class could be called Dreadnaught.

reason why I made this suggestion: the Dreadnaught would be the largest human made ship. It's weapons would probably be a little of everything. some bombs, missiles, a bunch of bullets, and maybe a little minor electric ammo. the drawback would be that it would be really slow. going at about 20 speed.

the sprite would look bulky, and kickass.

Yea, feel free to keep suggesting things, but I've got a 25-step program to go stark-raving-mad all written out for my work on this expansion (the fallen-spire stuff). We're only revealing stuff as it's actually done, to avoid various problems since stuff changes so much between initial planning and actual implementation etc.

But as I more or less revealed when Lance said that, the word "dreadnaught" has been in those plans since the start :)

That explains the name Siege Starship, eh?

See Keith's notes, and the art if you like. Dreanought AND Super-Dreadnought are part of that 25-step thing, and have been since the start. :)

Well, yea, but they can't actually _build_ the Super-Dreadnought ;)

And both of them are actually way, way more than a golem...
