I like that.

It's just a shame the shockwave weapon is near useless in A2 due to the lack of shielding on the Jach'eng and the fact that you can warp away from the shockwave before it hits.

hmm, well warp aint a problem in my mod, and you can always use it when some idiot builds a turret wall I guess. I have increased shielding on them.

The Phoenix is cloakable aswell.

never liked the ship design, but your work is great, as usual.
Though, if you want to, id suggest editing the bridge/front a bit, because it seems a bit flat to me.

Just last week, I lost the better part of a fleet when the wormhole they were just about to enter had a Jach'eng come out from the other side and detonate itself. I've also seen them used defensively against formations which were pressing an attack against the Klingon base, again with good results. They're hard to use effectively, to be sure, ESPECIALLY for the AI, but when they do work against you they're every bit as destructive as one would expect. Especially in ambushes. It's everything you'd want in a Klingon super weapon.

ive never had that happen in A2....never let them build em either usually i have a pretty good mixed fleet by then and go to work on the outlying bases etc. A1 on the other hand is a pain, they crank those ships out and send them along with battleships and cruisers towards my main base. on the destructiveness though i agree, usually cant rebuild that base after that. Simply have to move on to another. Falls behind and is a pain in the ..... you know lol

i think the the suicide ships should be the most decorated... i don't know about you but if you're blowing up your ship for the greater good of your people it should probably look a little more flashy than a mining freighter

Achilles, you might want to check with Atolm on his Klingon designs as I know he has quite a few of them. Thy used to be posted online but the link isn't working any longer. I know MAP made some of them so he might be a good POC as well.

To be honest, there is a valid point being made by this post I think.

I can't think of any examples, but for something that is going to make an impact, you really want to have it standing out, as if to shout out to the enemy "I'm coming, I'm scary, I'm gunna destroy you, and they're ain't shit you can do about it".

A nice start mind, don't get me wrong, just could do with some.. touching up maybe?

Hmmm, some klingon markings and elaorately placed text should do it some good. I agree.
