Here are some pics of the Sleepers. I only saw three models, one for each ship size, that did not differ regardless of the name of the Sleeper. The cruiser model was a bit borked for me but here anyway for completeness.
While I was taking pics a Sleeper one-shotted me . I was in a CovOps and so much junk was around I was not cloaked so not exactly hard to do but was funny that I popped about the same moment I realized I was being shot.
Anyway...enjoy. (note you can click for bigger pic at the link)

It's a Dune quote.
If it is from homeworld i don't remember, but Dune was what i was quoting it from.
5 isk coming your way CCP Whisper
EDIT: Although it appears i may have butchered the quote and it is in fact "The sleeper has awakened!" but my bad grammar sense is tingling on that. |

Edited by: Imperator Jora''h on 10/02/2009 11:15:57 I like them...particularly the battleship. Only one that vaguely bugs me is the cruiser...too reminiscent of a Domi turd (turdlette since it is a cruiser?) for my tastes.  |

The guns on those BS looks like a source of significant "ouchie", but the tracking must be horrible.
Nice move CCP, making them black and nearly formless - reduces design time and can be argued to be a result of isolation in W-Space.

Edited by: Haldane IV on 10/02/2009 12:02:04 Anyone know whether Frank Herbert was referencing anything in particular?
I found an H G Wells story "When the Sleeper Awakes", and it sounds like something Biblical to me.
edit - Sheriff, was it fron a "Fast Show" sketch? |

It's from the "Gothic" computer game. The sleeper is an old demon which awakes during the first part of the triology. |

Sleepers are evil. Took a deadspace tanked nightmare to the planet 9 battle and got aggroed by 2 sleeper cruisers and 2 bs. zap zap half armor zap zap in a pod. I can only hope the ones that were spawned were the really really uber ones you meet deep in the w-space netork and not ones you get from empire or low sec.
