Nimrod class Nimrod class

Aad Moerman, 2009-03-02

Some people like their Starfleet vessels with four nacelles, like the Prometheus class. Others prefer two, but like a sleek and dangerous looking vessel like the Akira class. For a long time, it's been hard to please these two sections of the community..... but today Aad Moerman gives us his latest design, the Nimrod, which promises to have something for both.

Combining no less than a full quartet of Sovereign nacelles into a modified Akira frame intended to hold 'em, and with a little story to explain the situation, the Nimrod class looks and plays with the combination of beauty and power that one expects of any good Starfleet vessel. She's a proper lioness in that she's got teeth as well, including new weapons .ODFs based on stock and included by Aad Moerman for your modding enjoyment. There's also a full set of in-game details to suit.

The Nimrod class gives a new meaning to the term "best of both worlds" and commends itself to be downloaded, by you, as soon as possible.

Cool

this looks like the gungutter class from Concept: Future, only better and more up to date!

Where, exactly, did the name come from?

#2 Nimrod was a "great hunter" from the Bible. However he was quite evil, seeing as he founded a religion with himself as the god (A lot of false gods and most pagan holidays originated from him) and he married his own mother. He is best know as the guy who had the tower of Bable built.


The ship looks quite nice! 9/10

Very nice, it reminds me of a couple of older site files I have sitting around... I think one was called Voyager-A....


Ah, here we are:


USS Voyager-A, armada2.filefront.com/file/USS_VoyagerA;36771


Akira Refit, armada2.filefront.com/file/Akira_Refit;68252


And espcially the Starfinder Class, armada2.filefront.com/file/Starfinder_Class;68077



(Just flexing my archivist muscles there :D )

I think we can agree this is the best yet!

I agree with #1, it looks like the Guncutter class to me only more up-to-date.
#8 Pizza_the_Hutt 2009-03-03 12:26
Looks great. I designed a similar ship years ago, but never finished it. Mine had two additional deflector dishes.
#9 apoclaydon 2009-03-03 15:46
i agree shame about the poly count tho

Downloaded this ship onto to my Modded Dominion Ultimate A2 Modded game. Man this ship rocks. Everything from the Ship design to seeing the weapons blowing up the enemy.


This is a worthy ship to add into your game!!!
