Vince T's X-Wing HQ Blog

Well, I've been teasing you long enough! This time I present you not one but FOUR OPTs at a time. OK, admittedly, they're rather similar, but it's the little differences that make life interesting, right? So... Two revisions and two new releases is what I have here. By now most people know the BRX-700 Combat Yacht and the notorious Barracuda. After those two were released I had decided pretty soon that they needed to be redone, needed a cockpit and more detail. So I started reworking them. In the process of reworking the ships - and in the course of several Battle Threads a new ship found my intenrest, the Black Scorpion. With some more head-twisting hours of conceptioning I finally had the perfect background. Like Vasudra and Otana in original XWA were the player's personal ships, the Black Scorpion is the property of official TBP player character Mryna Qhalic. To make things more interesting - and justify some rather exotic design ideas I whipped together the 'Sco...

This day will be long remembered! Well .. at least I hope ;) Finally, after months of waiting here's a new release for your Dhilani collection. Not only that, it is as well the last of the capital ships that needed to be completed. Only a handful other objects remain to be done to finish the modelling part for the Blue Phantom Project!. The Dhilani Leviathan is the pride and the heart of the Dhilani space armada. 5.7 kilometers in length it is supreme to any other vessel of its time.

Scratch one more Dhilani Cruiser!  The Dhilani Mammoth is now finished and available for download! This ship has been derived from teh Dhilani Warbird and acts as carrier and tactical communications platform for the Dhilani's dreadded fighter swarms. That's it for now. Go out there and have fun! ;)

Again?! No seriously, that was faster than I had expected - I had planned at least one or two months for this one! :o!!  The Dhilani Warbird is the primary killing machine within the Dhilani armada, a warship designed for a single purpose: destruction.  That's it for now. Go out there and have fun! ;)

Booya, there goes another! Finally, the first real Dhilani Capital ship, the mighty Trident , is completed and ready for download!  The Dhilani Trident acts as both troop carrier and battleship and is one of the most common ships encountered in Dhilani Invasion fleets. That's all this time, I think. Luckily the XWAU has some new stuff coming up soon. ;)

Another one of these things I had lying around almost-complete! The Commerce Guild Support Ship aka. Recusant-class Destroyer is the final Capship Relese for my upcoming ROTS - Battle over Coruscant-Shipset.  This model has been kindly donated by EvilelJedi from the Warlords Mod for Homeworld 2 and was converted to XWA by Berruga. I've made some minor tweaks and added a few textures.

It's taken a long time, I was hesitating, but since the project's reaching a stage where a completion is in sight, I think it's only just that I set up a forum all for it. Well, in fact it's not least Mateus Borges's credit, who went live with his ADP Forum just recently, that I finally decided to set one up , man I'm such a copyist :D! But after all, this might not be the worst idea, so I can put my thoughts and ideas down and receive feedback on them withouth having to update my site everytime or filling the XWAU Boards with tons of 'unrelated' stuff. So, without further ado... Welcome to the Blue Phantom Forum!   This will be the place for everything around my little XWA Project, its status, development and the things in life that do or do not matter. Of course, I won't abandon the XWAU and other boards. New releases and critical updates will be posted there like before. The new forum is just for the things going past normal mod announcements. So ...
