Excaliber?

Okay, so I learned Battleship 5 tech but I still can't build Excaliber class ships...this keeps my naval expenses WAAAY too high!

Dave,

Have you ever played the OS/2 game? Not only was there an Excaliber, but there were maybe 3 to 4 times as many ships as there are right now in this version. And at least one ship, the battle cruiser, is from the old game. The art department has to render them new for this version, and from what Brad has been saying, they are working as fast and furious as they can. I also remember Alex saying something about needing more "pixie dust".

Hang in there.

Cheers,
Jack

OK, so it's unimplemented. That's no problem....they will get to it. I could maybe help in the art dept. since I do 3D stuff and could make a ship and render it with any desired materials to an icon. If I remember, the Excaliber had a sort of transparent look to it.

I do have the OS/2 version but I shut my last OS/2 system down in August of 2000.

You guys will be happy to know we just added the dreadnought today

It should be in your next build.

Hey dave, if you want to make a cool ship I would be more then happy to take a look at it.
