Thought I would give back to the community with a cg image I created in my spare time. Hope you enjoy!

3000x1688 "Once more into the fray."

Ack, EVE needs more shiny explosions and better wrecks.
Also Autocannons need a more awesome animation and a more intimidating sound.

Like it a lot, although there really should be 500 hundred more ships all ganking the one rifter. Perhaps a titan or two in the background

Fun tastic

Small group combat, the way we want to play eve.

This post sums up why the 'best' work with DCM inc.

WARP DRIVE makes eve boring

really - add warping align time 300% on gun aggression and eve becomes great again

like it, but aint it "once more unto the breach" ?

TA on wis: "when we have a feature that is its own functional ecosystem of gameplay then hooks into the greater ecosystem of EVE as a whole, and it provides good replayability."

No, this is a completely different quote. Certainly the two seem very similiar, you'd have to take that up with Mr. Joe Carnahan.

Your speaking of a different poem I'm afraid. This is not that poem.

I would never blaspheme Gallente by doing such a thing! I made sure the thorax had heavy neutron blasters, and the rifter's all had 200mm autocannons. Here is a quick render I did of the two.

Thanks you everybody for the kind words. I went back and forth for awhile about adding the poem. I knew it would likely be confused some, with that quote from Shakespeare's Henry V. But chose to go with it regardless. It's actually a quote from the recently released movie: "The Grey" starring Liam Neeson. The movie is actually what gave me the idea to make the image, as I thought a 'pack' of rifters, compared nicely to the pack of wolves in the movie.

Surely a pack of Wolfs would have been more appropriate Blink

None the less, Awesome work.

Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

Sometimes when I post, I look at my sig and wish that I'd follow my own god damned advice.

Hm, okay. The HNBs appear to have AC muzzle flash and smoke clouds, though.
