  • Straighten horizontally, the middle part of the ship - In effect brining the front of the ship closer and a little further up.
  • Extend and slightly raise the rear engines.
  • Increase the width of the middle part of the ship, just before the wings/turrets, to make sure the ship still has some 'body'.



The end result should look something like this:

In comparison to the existing:

I apologies for the image/edit quality.

Why? imo the adjustments will make the ship more attractive thus, people will enjoy the game more.

I think the main criticism of the current design is the "snubbed nose" that makes the ship look sloppy/silly. (The area just before the wings in the middle of the ship(as the structure lowers down the front part).

Once upon a time the Golem had a Raven hull and it looked good. Then it transformed into a plataduck. The end.

Not a huge improvement - hard to say.

I liked the old Caracal and I like the new version, I honestly don't see the need to change it yet again.

New Caracal model looks fine. You're just nitpicking now.
