[C.Weapon Designs/Ideas] Rod's Heap of Weapon Designs

[AquaRegisteel]

I figured I would probably have missed the mark with creating the right attributes for the weapons Oh well, it is still very fun!

I think the militant class of weapons is pretty sweet. Hey, you could envision a mod with the Militant class weapons featuring on a whole new ship class too...unless that has been done.

I have thought of making ship designs for the Militia, but making completely new ships out of stock parts is something that personally I find very difficult. Perhaps what I could do is say the Militia... 'redeem' ships from all sides (Feds, Rebels, Race factions) since their own military power isn't very high. That way, I can simply take original models, give them the new repaint and add other smaller details which differentiates them from the original sprite.

Well, @AquaRegisteel wanted and I delivered, so....

they're rebel weapons so it would make sense that they're in a rebel warzone...right?riiight...???

Update 22/07/2017
Removed Radioactive Artillery due to it being flipped and unusable within FTL. I'm also not really proud of how it looks, I'll see if I remake it sometime later.

After an hour or two and 46 frames, with 2346 pixels of length.. (That's about 6/10 of a meter!) I present to you...

I think that looks great. The graffiti is a nice touch. What does the number - 303 - mean? Is this a type of insignia for the Militia, or ship name.

The number 303 is meant to signal the number of the spaceship. The Militia are limited in number and do not have very powerful ships (if they do, they're quite rare), so they put a number from 1 to as many as needed, similar to a serial number. Sadly, I can't randomize this number with each encounter in-game if the ship is to be used, so it'll always be the same number if you encounter the same type of ship.

I feel obliged to post a replay joking about the quest to find the lost Miltia ship, number 404.

"You enter the beacon where the 404th ship of the Militia was sending it's distress signal... but you find nothing."
