The ship will be named after a mythical object of Nordic origin....
Nokia
jokes aside, looks interesting. A bit "vulgar" for known X3 usc design (many black, un-covered bits). I guess its the offspring of USC and ATF design mating. Definitely getting Maccana and Kyoto vibes as far as the shape of the sides of the hull are concerned, good job.

Re: X4: Cradle of Humanity *UPDATE* Fresh from the shipyard: unveiling a new battleship
Will we have more ship reveal?
From Terrans I think we have left with reveal of:
- Gunship (unless they are like Paranid/Split, who use Corvette instead of Gunship)
- Frigate
- Carrier
- Auxilary ship
...Yes I know there are also Couriers, Freighters and Miners, but these are not so interesting.
Also Terran bridge/cokpit would be nice to see too.

Isn't the ""Katana"" a gunship?

Gunships have typically more turrets than guns in X4.
The Katana 4 guns and 2 turrets match more a Corvette.

Right on commander !

Re: X4: Cradle of Humanity *UPDATE* Fresh from the shipyard: unveiling a new battleship
Is this official yet? I mean - the only screenshot revealed to the public doesn't show us the belly of the beast. (one could hide 2 turrets there )
If a Split Dragon can come with 6 guns & 2 turrets, sure a Terran Katana can come with 4 guns & 4 turrets ...
Let the Borons get the next corvette, that ship class is more suitable for the Hydra.

Re: X4: Cradle of Humanity *UPDATE* Fresh from the shipyard: unveiling a new battleship
Until you realize that this ship needs to be able to land on stations, so it can't have turrets on its belly.

That new ship looks insane. I shall make use of it for major DAKKA against my enemies.
She will be mine. Oh yes, she will be mine.

Re: X4: Cradle of Humanity *UPDATE* Fresh from the shipyard: unveiling a new battleship
I really hope this is not yet another restriction for ship designs. Their major job is fly around & look good, not sitting at a dock

I am confident that Terran ships will be well shielded, so for the balance sake they can not have as many guns than Split ships.
Right on commander !
Re: X4: Cradle of Humanity *UPDATE* Fresh from the shipyard: unveiling a new battleship
The words "Terran" and "balance" shouldn't be used in the same sentence. Does anyone really expect them to be balanced?
Re: X4: Cradle of Humanity *UPDATE* Fresh from the shipyard: unveiling a new battleship
X4 allows conquest, so balancing is very much necessary. It would be boring quickly to see one faction taking over everything.
Right on commander !
Re: X4: Cradle of Humanity *UPDATE* Fresh from the shipyard: unveiling a new battleship
Only if every faction behaved the same and went to constant warfare and conquest.
It also gets boring very quickly if every faction plays more or less the same.

Re: X4: Cradle of Humanity *UPDATE* Fresh from the shipyard: unveiling a new battleship
Why? if a ship costs more resources (and credits) it can be better imo. The I is a good example that you can implement OP ships in the game...
Re: X4: Cradle of Humanity *UPDATE* Fresh from the shipyard: unveiling a new battleship
The Xenons is a good example actually ; *every* game turns into a race to prevent them to destroy everything.
So no, it is not a good idea.
Cost is only a facor if the faction does not have more resources than the others.
Remember, NPC faction have (practically) infinite budget.

Re: X4: Cradle of Humanity *UPDATE* Fresh from the shipyard: unveiling a new battleship
The I is not obtainable by the player, or all Xenon ships for that matter. Huge difference. There was once a bug with which you could obtain a Xenon I ... the game went from "that is so cool" to boring in the very same second. The balancing of Xenons dictate the games difficulty for the player - should s/he chose to combat Xenons.
The latest ship screams "We need a cover on that thermal exhaust port", and I really hope this is how it turns out - some kind of exploitable weakness.
