Trillizo-class Assault ShuttleShip Class: Shuttle Ship Role: Assault Shuttle Ship Length: 20 meters Agility (A): 2 Defensive (D): 4 Offensive (O): 4 Speed (S): 2 Special Gear: 2 (Passenger Space, Cargo Space) Description:The Trillizo-class Assault Shuttle came about as an evolution of the Lambda-class T-4a shuttle built for the Diarchy. The Trillizo-class maintains a similar profile to the Lambda, but features a trio of Turbolaser cannons attached to the three wing tips, a Rear-Mounted Dual Laser Turret and a pair of forward facing Dual Laser Cannons. Similar to the Lambda, it is capable of carrying 80 tons of cargo and in usual operation could deploy 25 soldiers.

To see such a shuttle that could surpass the proclaimed power of the Delta-class T-3c Shuttle pleases me. There couldnt be any other vessel that would suit the likes of Lucius and his ruthless nature.
That said, shouldn’t this be in the starfighter category or is the overall length from top to bottom long enough to be considered support class?

well... I had listed it as a shuttle, so when submitting it, right after the Cautelosa, brain just acted on autopilot... so when a DO has a moment, could they please move this to the heavy starfighter sub area...

My only question is if this is just Fractalsponge’s design of the canon Delta-class JV-7 Escort Shuttle. Seems he has it identified as such. If there is no issue with that render being able to become a custom shuttle, I have no qualms either. Just noticed it a d was curious.

I think it's a different enough look and length (when you look at the comparison shots with the Lambda, hinting that they're closer in length), that it should be ok as a custom shuttle.

Moved. I feel like it should be, at least a little, worse of a shuttle than the Lambda. The Mad stats work, but having it as good of a transport as the Lambda plus being an awesome fighter kinda feels odd to me. Just a thought.

I'm confused as to where there is mention of it being an awesome fighter. It's classified as Starfighter by size only. I doubt it's out playing starfighter roles, only having a solid armament to defend itself in nearly any situation.
And honestly, I would have upped the stats myself and considered it a smaller variant of the Delta I mentioned, which was better than the Lambda in almost every regard. I was going to say that perhaps this should be a 5 in offense with the trio of turbolasers, but considering it only has four regular laser cannons versus the Lambda's max often, I suppose the remaining six could equal out the replaced turbolasers.
In the end, I don't feel anything should be a little worse than the original canon ships that our custom models are based on. The MAD system works to ensure no one can just craft a super ship and it would make sense that anything created would be equal to or greater would be created in an attempt to improve on designs. If we were to follow the idea of lesser than the originals, then creating custom ships is pretty pointless.

I feel that if you are going to upgrade one area from an existing model, then it should come at a cost from other areas. Like I said I approve the MAD stats. I would suggest that it have a reduced capacity. " Like the Lambda, it is capable of carrying 80 tons of cargo and 25 soldiers." this portion I would edit to be slightly less.

The Lambda doesn’t actually have an upper limit specified in terms of troops it can carry. It just states 20+, which leads me to believe it is capable of carrying significantly more, which makes sense when you take into account the fact that you could place temporary seating in the additional cargo holds and the fact the troop area is fairly spacious.
Stat wise, it’s pretty much identical to the Lambda. I did consider a 5 Offense, but the sacrifice to defence or agility didn’t seem 100% worth it...

Edited the wording slightly in that section. Though I'm still not entirely sure where I've upgraded one area? The Lambda-class T-4a Shuttle has identical stats. The Trillizo-class isn't stronger or faster than the Lambda, it just has a different weapon loadout.

This one is fine. The Lambda now feel way over powered. Approved.
