Here we have the first entry for our kitbash contest:
Quote:Introducing the Imperial Bangor Class Battleship. Active within the Terran Empire 2170-2210 as a front line ship.
The ship has a unique design suited to it's purpose, warfare. It has improved impulse engines, allowing it to maneuver itself more freely and quickly. It also need the extra power to haul the extra weight of a third nacelle and duel turrets. Its third nacelle acts as not only a backup engine, but as a primary engine to allow the ship to travel further distances. The unique design plays into the hands of the Terrans perfectly as the ship can warp in and out of battles unleashing its powerful flurry of photons.
The particular unique feature about the Bangor that makes it such a tool for the Terrans is the duel torpedo pods. It can fly into battle and unleash up to 12 photons in one volley.
This modification is tested on Aftermath and therefore is recommended for that mod. This mod is also for submission to the 'Starship Kitbashing Contest'.
If this mod is welcomed, I shall also release a Federation alternative.
This is a really great addon to Aftermath. And to answer the question whether this is welcomed, yes it is, I personally would appreciate a Federation alternative. There is nothing more that I can say, maybe that you should not forget to vote for this, when this is your favorite. But hopefully we will see some other kitbashes for this contest soon.

Personally I am delighted acid released a Terran version instead of a Federation version, Federation are highly overdone and a nice evil yellow stripe is a good addition to the fleet

Thanks guys, I'll be arranging the Federation version soon. How do you think it should look? Same with the original texture? Or with some model changes? It's your shout.
@tj_hawk & cammy511 - yeah this one was a bit of a slugger to pull through since i took allot of time out of modding...
@IKS - Totally right, I've been wanting to do a specific Terran ship for a while now, since i think they are a faction that would make a ship like this.
@Anubis - I can't be sure, man. No harm* in trying, though! (*may not be 100&% true )
Id imagine a fed version would look similar. It would fi in a a ship that had be a ship used during the rom war. I would say remove the third nacelle but it would look like a poisideon with extra torp launchers. I'll go doodle some designs and see what looks good...
I have a rough sketch I will involve placing the launchers on the bottom if the saucer and adding 2 more nacelles. It shoul look some what like the proxima class or one of those XI ship variants. I'll try to get a pic soon but gotta work first.

@johnny - sounds good man! cant wait to see it drop it in the forums somewhere and I'll see it whenever
seeing as this is the Terran version, and this ship was built and tested in an aftermath environment, shouldn't it be equipped with the Terran weapons i made for the Terran ships in aftermath?

@ Fangoriously - you are probably right, but I preferred the ship using its current weapons, simply for the aesthetic harmony.
aesthetic harmony should be left to the federation version.
