Greetings
I have been playing EVE for a while now and while trying different angles of the game I came across quite some interesting ship designs that look familiar from other places of SF. These are usually famous or some I would even call legendary designs the designers of EVE probably wanted to pay tribute to.
The ones I can remember right of the top of my head are:
Rifter: The Pod Racer Anakin Skywalker uses in Episode 1.
Phoenix: The Missile Cruiser of Homeworld.
Naglfar: The legendary Mothership of Homeworld I & II fame. The Info text seems even to hint that the Minmatar might have the HW story in their history.
I am sure there are others I am not remembering right now or I am not seeing because I lack the reference.
Anyone of you might to add to the list?
If there is a thread about this can anyone please share the link?
Thank you.

Edited by: stoicfaux on 05/09/2009 16:11:16 The Rifter actually reminds of some space ship decal stickers I had in the 70's.
Caracal looks like a Klingon D-18.
The Rokh looks a bit like the colonial marine ship, the Sulaco, from Aliens.
The Megathron kinda sorta has that Star Blazers wet-navy ship in space look.
Amarr shuttle looks like a Star Wars A-Wing.

The Vexor looks like a flying hair dryer. Seriously, what sci-fi show were they watching when they designed that? Maybe that one episode from Buck Rogers where the archeologist speculated that a hair dryer was a primitive laser gun?
The Vexor is a Horse's head. (Hint: Look at it sideways) However, on another note, I now have one of those annoying sigs. |
