Sorry for lack of Human upload as I promised, the new Naxx are going very quick. When I actually like the ships I'm making it goes much, much faster [:D] So, it will be a double update again, Human and Naxx, probably tomorrow [;)]

This is the longest ever without an update since I started the mod [X(]

Blame the latest Blood Bowl patch, which allows you to now, finally play multiplayer without cheaters every other match [:D]

A lovely ship set. I installed it yesterday and was a bit apprehensive about the human ships (I did enjoy the original cruiser), but after playing today I did completely enjoy them.

I found a ugnari refugee fleet, and the cruiser was so sweet it was almost sad to retire it for tech once I had a huge enough shipyard to create a decent replacement on my own.

Hey Bing!  Glad you enjoy.  The Humans were one of the first sets I made, before I really knew what I was doing [:D]  The next update, available sometime in next 24hrs includes a Naxxilian set but also a complete new replacement for the Humans (including much better spaceports).  So you will have the choice between two Human sets [8D]

Looking good, WoodMan. [8D]

You know something, it's amazing how much time I must have spent sorting out flashing light bugs. Imagine how much quicker it would be if the game were more strict with level of yellow pixels. I don't think everyone can fully imagine just how much time you and I have put into sorting these things out.

Understandable if you ask me. I've always been interested in Blood Bowl but never got into it. Too much other games to play already!

The new Naxx ships look excellent!
BTW. Suggestion for Shandars: If you've played Gratuituos space battle, you know the Tribe from it. Make Shandar somewhat similar with round shapes and color them orange/grey/white. That's how I've always pictured Shandar ships. Just a suggestion though, so no pressure.

I'm playing in the Forum Open League atm.&nbsp; Its my first multiplayer campaign, and my first time playing Undead too, 2-2-4 record atm [:D]&nbsp; Funny thing is my only two wins were both against top 10 ranked players, against the general rabble though I've been losing.&nbsp; Lost last night against Orcs after ending up in a very strong position at one point in the match, a bloody goblin throw right at the end got them a 2-1 win [:D]

Losing to a Goblin throw is infuriating! Esspecially when you 2 die block the goblin with wrestle the turn before and double skull....grumble...grumble....

Anyway, well if you are looking for probably the biggest and most established league check out Orca Cola, I'm an admin there and can make a reassuring grunt on your application, you only need to do 1 game a week! ;)
We must have something like 300 coaches right now.

Hey all!

Version 18 of the mod is now available for download on the first page. This version contains a new shipset for the Naxxilians and also a replacement shipset for the Humans. The old Diverse Worlds Human shipset has been moved into the Extra Content folder, you can find it there if you would rather use those instead. Please enjoy!

Preview: Left Human, Right Naxxilian

A go at Shandar, just playing around. A bit garish perhaps, but Orange and Silver was the popular choice in previous discussions in this thread [:D]

Edit: Replaced image with a better one, the silvery bits are now less Orange

Really nice work, WoodMan. [&o]

The Shandar ship looks spot on to me.
