Atlantis B: Has Ancient drones, Puddle Jumpers, max. Shield and powerful engines. Replaces The Nisos

You know, there's a reason why most ships are viewed from the top down.

Having said that, I'm thinking Atlantis would be better viewed from the sides - with the control tower pointing in this direction: :arrow: due to the way FTL works.

This replaced the Federation A, right?

Also, the slight angle on the whole ship is fairly confusing... my only other qualm is the slightly jagged border on the ship itself. Definitely an interesting idea for a ship! :D

Awesome idea.
I think that the 3 circles (one to the left of drone control, another to the bottom right of the weapons room, and the third to the right of the cloak) are the drone ports.

Yes, quite true. Why it's on a completely random pier, I have no idea. :|

Thank You for noticing, I have fixed that now and I also changed the location of some doors.

yeah i agree i watched the episodes with the city in moment and combat and to say so.
the ship needs 3/4 attack drones mark I/II (the fighters of atlantis) and 4 humans (they had alot of crew) and 3/4 of the lasers and it needs shield piercing and it needs 4 shields and maxed engines and more hull (the ancients were building sturdy ships that had great engines and had excellent shields and devastating weapons, but they were to self confident and they had almost ran out of power(so give them 6 power bars maximum as a start) and they were masters of nanites (so give them medbots and they had strong medbays level 3 andgive them drone recovery arm (the ships flew back after the fights( and give them damaged stasis pod(they were able to set people in stasis in 10 000 years and have them age about 10 000 days) okay i think that is it.
sry for long post all i came up with now.

Triple post ftw!

On a more serious note...

They're called puddle jumpers. Atlantis has no lasers, they're drones. Atlantis does have superior shielding (I'd even go for Zoltan shields), but its structure is EXTREMELY fragile, so I'd be in favor of LESS hull, not MORE. Stasis pod is pointless, as you'll get a Crystal from it. How is a Crystal related to the Ancients?

Edit: Did somebody delete some of the clone posts he posted? They were there a moment ago! :shock:
