My review:

This well mannered startrek-ish fleet has been around for quite a long time now.

Theres plenty of detail on the ships, for an SE4 fleet, but I think some of the ships are too similar. Overall its a bit dull, too much greyness. The carriers are too much like each other, and some of the spherical additions to the transports are a bit cheap.

The troop though, have to be my favourite part of the fleet, they just look so cool.

An averagely good fleet, but nothing that really stands out. Just neat well rounded production value.

Production Notes:

The Sovereign Nation of Pacea uses the Aquilae AI which was optimized
to play without starting tech, and to play with all the tech available from the start,
without use of medium or high bonus. The AI with high Research Skills and knowledge
in the Temporal Manipulations.

It was made using Moray 3.3, rendered using Povray.

Excellent shipset, except for the portrait. It was one wild ride until the portrait. Screwed the entire ride.

Awesome! The entire shipset looks like it flew out of the heavens to combat the evils of a deranged universe! I particularly enjoy the lateral ring at the rear of every ship that connects the nacelles! And from the looks of those fighters, not only would Roddenberry be proud, but whoever came up with the Cylons from the origional Battlestar Galactica, too! However, as Tzryylon 5 pointed out, the race picture could use some work. I had the same problem with another race at this site, too.

The Master's comment at the top could use some work. I think that the greyness is good: it suggests a massive amount of armor. It also adds an air of non-personality: These blokes mean buisness. The race portrait's a load of bull, makes the race look like some sort of saviours. All aside, excellent work.

I love this set, I have to disagree with the review at the top of the page. The designs look similar, sure, but you know what, they all look like they belong together in the same fleet and era. There is a great belnding of themes and ideas. I recognize the race portrait, but i think it's over exposed.

Well, I'm glad you people do like this fleet so much. I'm sure the author really appreciates your comments. It completely depends what you look for in a race. "These blokes mean business" - I see your point, armoured up and ready to do battle.

I love this shipset! Awesome! The race pic is easily enough replaced. Doesnt matter, the ships rock. I have sites where I can D/L a 3D alien that fits, replace the race image and use these great ships! wrg! Any chance of a neo standard?

Posted by: Brad C., 2006-03-21

Yes! Yes! Neo-standard all the way! Let's see some barges and resorce ships! Heck, throw in some starliners! Carry these "blokes" to the extreme!

No problem, Markavian.
