Subject: [FT] my take on the UNSC SDN-X
This is based off of looking at the miniature. This thing looks like
a US govt republican (IE, big contributions from all the military
manufactureres) committee designed it. There's more pork in this
thing than in the sausage the US collectively had for breakfast.
Anyway, there are two things I don't like, one is the weak hull,
however...
First, if you don't give it a weak hull it tops the scales at
351 without any armor. That would be OK EXCEPT this things feels
lighter than my FSE SDN.
Second, it is obviously a dispersed structure. Those big wings
are vulnerable points.
The other thing I didn't like is I couldn't fit fighter groups on
without pushing it over the edge. Anyway, here it is:
