I want to try it out, but the fatal flaw of the entire ship is it's size. I can't find any PW games up atm with a large enough body of water or with rules that allow such a unit, complete with crew.

[QUOTE=CheeseMan;17895489]If it's a destroyer it could possibly look nicer with some heavy-calibre wepaons there. I was originally going to say that, except I assumed it was a carrier (Because of the helicopter. Stupid, I know.)
Anyway, even without it looks good.[/QUOTE]
I went with armaments entirely based off of the Kongo Class Destroyer of the Japanese Self Defense Force. Two CIWS, Two Cannons, 20 Tomahawk and Seahawk missile pods.
Perhaps you should set up a new game, or add it to your new city!
You should make it an Attack and Defend PW match, With you and maybe allies defending the ship with enemies trying to take over! (i know i said that for the last ship but it would be cool...)
I would, but it'd be horribly unbalanced. The instant a single soldier boards the ship it'll be a slaughter. This ship isn't intended to have a security force, I decided it just wasn't needed. The ship is used in Anti-Air, Anti-Ship and Anti-Ground operations, not so much to deploy troops, so there is no stock of weapons or soldiers past side arms.

Very WIP, sort of a continuation of the mech.
I plan to refit my Destroyer. It's missing minor details and other such systems that a ship would typically have. Most will not affect game play drastically. These changes include:
* Inflatable Rescue Raft (With Wall Mounted Box for storage)
* Search Lights (Possible)
* Sirens/PA System (Possible)
* Fire Control System (Possible)
* Small Armory (Rifles, Pistols, Vests and Helmets.)
* Small Security Force (2 or so crew members)
* Blast Shudders on the Bridge Windows.

You could use that one fact to make up a storyline almost, the ship was being attacked of the coast of trug city by several enemy forces, armed to the teeth with heavy weaponry. The trug army was called in, along with any unused and armed units to defend the ships, allies of the trugs were also called in on an ASAP emergency mission.
Rescue Raft, Security, Armory, Shutters are installed. I assume alarms, PA Systems and Sirens don't need to be depicted. Search Lights seem useless in PW.
The Rifted 'This Side Up' very minor changes.

And a little chart on the proper use of the Emergency equipment:

How are these

Amazing.

Just a random update. The Reaper UAV, boat-thing, twin leaders (?), flag, new paratroopers, the old parachute sucked, and [U]heavy[/U] artillery. Yes I realize the barrel is twice as long as the fucking chassis. It's supposed to be like that, apparently.
But what does everyone think about the MiGs? The one on the right was the original, but that looked too big so I scaled it down. Which seems right? And the artillery, how do I get the artillery kind of feel where the barrel isn't diagonal, straight up, or straight.
They look alright, the shading is hardly noticeable though, I'd up the contrast on that.
For the artillery cannon, you could try doing 2 pixels up to every 1 pixel sideways (2:1, I think)
Migs are alittle big, the artillery is great, the boat needs more detail, the UAV shouldn't be as big I don't think.
Does anybody have a nice black hawk or Humvee I could borrow? Maybe even a nice tan color like so : [url]http://www.airmilitaire.com/Images/Colors-TriColorDesert.jpg[/url]
@codemonkey: are those green soldiers yours?
Nope. They're not mine.
Also, my hotel has Wi-Fi >:D
The UAV is actually bigger than that. The Reaper or even the Predator for that matter is bigger than a small two seater passenger plane.
It's the Reaper, not the Predator. The Predator looked ugly in 2D, but I thought the predator was smaller?
The UAV's are big, yeah, yeah, yeah.
They're not small, no, no ,no.
But in Pixel Wars, there is no need to make a UAV that big, just makes it harder to fit into a map with a small skyline or mountains.
Here are some size references;

Modern UAV's are slightly larger than personal airplanes, the little single propellar ones down at the airport.
Go off of that.
Throwing an idea out there, most likely I'm going to make this.
Pixel Nation - Everyone gets their own map, they get to build and develop, they can trade with eachother, and go to war, if they go to war their units are taken away from their home map when deployed and put into a battlefield, if the attacker wins the battlefield (Which is another map/thread) gets to attack their country. They start with 10 guys and one vehicle, war is not allowed at first so you don't bumblefuck eachother the instant you join. Max of 4 players. The game won't be on a declare system, there will also be a auction for rare items (You give two apples and you win if the other gives 1 apple etc.) the items are like gold, uranium and such.
Anyone interested?
sounds good
your destroyer needs more armor though
I'd play that pixel nations thing, sounds perfect.
Guess who has two thumbs and is interested?
This guy.
It's up.
Hey Codemonkey I saw your Humvee and Blackhawk. (or trughawk?) May I use them for my E.A. army? (Empire of America!)
Sure, reskin them though.
