Description




Quicker than a rocket and snappier than a Terran Hummingbird, the Tempest Class Interceptor is by far the most maneuverable craft produced by White Dwarf Manufacturing. With three large atmospheric thrusters for lift and three more for forwards acceleration, the Tempest Class has no match when it comes to speed. Such great acceleration and high-G maneuver capabilities meant that WDM had to develop a new flight suit to protect the pilots in late 2307 before the official release of the craft. Having been designed in conjunction with the new Enforcer Class, the Tempest Class follows the same design philosophy and features a different style of armament than that of first generation fighters. Instead of utilizing turrets, this new fighter is equipped with more fixed gatlings and a greater number of rocket launchers, bringing WDM more up to par with some other manufacturers out there such as ACI, and its relatively recent Helios Interceptor. Not only does the Tempest Class excel at taking on enemy fighters, the craft also excels at anything air-to-ground, as its flight characteristics make it perfect for strafing runs.

A great looking ship, small but with plenty if teeth and enough 'legs' to get out of trouble as quick as it gets into it. Nice work mate.

Oh I didn't actually make the section headers myself cause I'm not good at graphic design, but the kind person who did used Adobe Photoshop I believe.

Yoo this looks teriffic! I can't wait to check it out!

Can I just say I apreciate the effort you put into both your designs and descriptions. What exactly do you use to make the section headers?

This. Thing. IS. EPIC.

Yeah I was surprised myself.

well thats not bad then, for a compact build.
Rhea.licious  [author] 25 Aug, 2019 @ 12:29am 
Nah it works without overload, even with the lateral thrust going.
LogicNotFoundExE_404 24 Aug, 2019 @ 10:12pm 
dont have this game installed any more but it looks like it will overload and im not sure about the battery single + one large reactor combo but thrust to power ratio dosent look right unless im wrong.
