Alright, while finishing up on the new Victory Mk2 version, let's have a little quiz shall we - just for fun >D.
Below you'll find a picture.
Look at it very closely and then answer the following question:

Where is the stormtrooper?[/B} :D

Hmpf, I should've known the stormtrooper was too obvious - and distracting from the pic's main intention. :D
Alright then, congratulations, Ryan, for winning the quiz twice - here and over at the TBP forum.

it kinda looks like the second to last ship in the sneek peek picture you showed everybody. Though that looks slightly bigger. However the windows are simmilar style and the hull is simmilar color as well.

That doesnt look like a very safe place to park a fighter, all those big thruster banks. OSHA compliance? Lighting is already tied up in litigation...

Aw, c'mon, do you really think I'd teaser something and not release it, once it's done? I might be evil, but not cruel :D

Close, Wes - the second one ;)<P>It's not Dhilani in no way. Now let's have a closer look at it shall we?

CSX-600 was designed and constructed by ShiCon Dynamics during the high days of the United Planets. This radical design was ShiCons first step into capital ship design. Looking at it as a whole familiar design traits similar to ships like Shicon's BRX Yacht series are clearly visible.

For a corvette of 145 meters CSX-600 is fast, agile and to a high level customizable, similarily to the successful Combat Yachts of the BRX series.

While the CSX-600 was primarily designed as a fast ship for VIP passenger transport and luxury cruise lining, numerous derivatives for military purpose were created in cooperation with the UPMF and other groups. ;)
