- Southern Airship News Gazette,
XX/XX/XX
yo, chiiposting.
I mean, it is a rat-custardly charming move(sarcasm sarcasm whoo-whoohoo) but in my rightful defense... nah those excuse can charmingly go away-
SOMEONE WAS INTERESTED IN MY OLD SERIES AND I WAS NOSTALGIC AND HAPPY THAT SOMEONE OTHER THAN ME LIKED IT YOU KNOW HOW MUCH THAT MADE MY DAY!??? I WAS SO GODDAMN NOSTALGIC SEEING ALL THOSE TARGET AIRSHIPS WITH THEIR OLD TECHS AND CONSYRUCTION FROM ME LIKE 3-4 YEARS PRIOR HOT FHSKSHEIHJ AAAAAAAAAA-
anyway, the person in question is @TheHaggisBasher and he do be making me nostalgically happy, man... I was really so happy y'know, even I know this series was nothing short of a little.. failure? well, flop might be a kinder word, but yeah.
so this is the 1st out of 16 target airships to come, so that's a plan.
speaking of which, I'll have to see if I wanna continue this project with new updates and such later, cause I'll have to say, I wanna drop in some truly.. worthy of my fixation hella dieselpunk(of the cleaner kind, but maybe I'll consider a grungy one later) airships.
man....
nostalgia kills.
speaking of which, got my hands on a more decent-er photo editing software, which oddly enough, was aimed at being glitchy, but I can make it unglitch and it resulted in some muuuuch better looking base compared to.. other choices(beside lightroom, of course)
oh, also, if I recall correctly, the name breakdown is... T4 being it's Rank of how I like it, III is a denotion of how high it can operate(III being at the top of the chart, with I being close to ground), B is for all-around armour, and Grand Explorer... well, let your imagination run wild!! it could be what it says.. or maybe it's what they call cruisers in this world.. maybe it's just a fancy name..? many options really ;3

@Monarchii
I mean, given its *YUGE* glass nose, exposed engines, and lack of traditional sensor masts it's rather clear the airframe is not designed to go toe-to-toe against enemy warships, with the glass nose seemingly designed to be a large panoramic window for either higher-class passengers or for geographers and cartographers to conduct aerial surveying and mapping. The lack of more windows (plus the Southern Airship News Gazette) do suggest the latter, though.
My verdict? The "Grand Explorers" are armed exploration/research ships with enough firepower to fend off potential attackers but not enough structural integrity to survive prolonged conflict. They're good at discovering new locations and plotting new skyroutes while fending off hostile wildlife and sometimes the odd pirate ship, but to send them into active conflict is plain old inadvisable.
FIRST1!1!1!
