If you would Include a EA Hospital Ship in the MOD...

Which one would have the biggest chance?



"Intended to replace the converted liners used by the Earth Alliance since the Dilgar War, the Mercy class used the tried and true Omega class hull as its basis, removing all but the interceptor grid to comply with interstellar law on the arming of hospital ships. An enlarged spin section provides more room for patients and staff, while the large shuttle bay carries medevac shuttles. A zero-G burn ward is also included, and the medical equipment on board is the best the Earth Alliance has to offer. Some have expressed concern that the use of a destroyer hull might lead to accidental attacks, though the ship is clearly marked as a hospital ship and the advantages of using a proven hull design, and one that is much faster, and effective than any comperable civilian vessel, are seen as outweighing that possibility."



"A converted passenger liner, a cheap and effective hospital ship platform."

But think about a that kind of Omega. it would make everyone laugh themselves to death.

Of course, when the next version comes out, we can always make those ships with a bit of texture tweaking...

OK, so that everyone understands what I meant, they all look terrible, but the last one looks the least terrible.

well, if anyone cares about my opinion, the last one definitely fits better. After all, it is the b5 passenger liner design, just painted to look like a really tempting target

Space is dark!!
None would see the nice white paintings!
You have to lighten the hole ship. Most attacking alien pilots would not know, what the red cross is.

Yeah, they would say: "How nice of them to put a targeting cross on the ship."

lol Skuller!!! your'e quite right.

If there was a medical ship, it would probably look like a normal liner, or shuttle, and the mod team have those.

and the "dont shoot!" is pretty funny

Knowing Sheridan was aboard, any alien ships aould try to nuke him in self defence! Hell, Sheridan would do it to them given half a chance.
