Smoldering city is the husk of a destroyed capital ship.

I'm tempted to say it's a Xenon capital, considering I've not seen it around before and it looks spiky and has a few red LEDs on it - but it doesn't have the trademark Xenon asymmetry so I could be wrong.

Not enough red highlights in its frame for me to think its a Xenon, but am liking the design.

EDIT: Your comment about asymmetry is true though...

It appears to be a very similar design of ship used by the Reivers from the Gamescom demo, but it uses a different paint scheme.

I was thinking more the big destroyer in the foreground, with the fires from destroyed surface elements.

I think I've seen that ship before, though, looks piratey but I feel it doesn't have much reason to be here besides if it had been deployed from one of the capital ships.

You can see that ship in this video too:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Bb_jCP1 ... n1FVRsDYGw

It´s not a Xenon ship, and not a pirate ship.
Split, Iam not sure, but I would say no. It doesnt look like a split ship to me.



It might be a battle where Plutarch is fighting against the Albion.

I guess that its a frigate. I cant see any rocket launchers, and its a smaller capital ship, there is a lot of small frontal anti-fighter turrets. The ship also looks very nimble. It should be a frigate.

But Iam just guessing a little bit here!

I like the logo. Reminds me of Crimson Skies.

Out dated concept art I think.

In the official SotW it looked like there were at least 7 caps 3 of them destroyed.

Im almost positive the split and teladi are in the game. I thought i saw it in achievements but I cant see it there now. Im speculating the cool looking warship is split.

The trading and mining video showed off what looked very much like a female Split, and the exploration video had an extremely Teladi-looking creature in it with an extremely Teladi-sounding name.

I think at this point they've been implicitly confirmed.

I think so. I presume they don't want to give too much away about this sort of thing (anyone notice how we've actually seen an uncharacteristically small number of ships? I can't believe there are only two or three capital ship types in the game) so that we can explore and find them out for ourselves.

Just a re-hash of another vid/photo.

Although it is nice to see the station environment that attaches to the solar array.
There are 10 types of people in the world.

And those who don't.

The explosions on this screenshot really look bad, at least on this screenshot.
They look a bit to much in 2d like you used to see in old games, i hope that its just this screenshot and that they look better in the game.

The explosions look bad because there are no explosions.

There's lots of burning and smoking, but nothing is actually in the process of exploding in that screenshot.

I meant the smoke & fire and stuff. It looks amazing.
And I saw some explosions in videos too. Yep, its stunning.
