A fast attack fighter, based on Soren's awesome ship.

About this creation

Falkerepublik's newest fighter is actually an unarmed ship. The weapons are located on a detachable module that connects to the ventral side of the fighter.

Check out Soren's original Super Spartan here.

I rebuilt the cockpit from memory, then built the tail in pure Dan Sibley style. The result is this crazy mixed-up MOC.

There are no actual engines, just microscale castles mounted sideways.

This MOC makes me wonder: where the heck did I get all those blue square flags? I don't know.

This here is my first MOC with medium blue pieces. Yay x-pods!

This picture is pretty self-explanatory.

I tried to avoid my tendency to put little bits of lots of different colors on this one. It's only got blue, light grey, yellow, black, white, red, medium blue, trans-blue, trans-red, and trans-neon green, so I did pretty good.

Oh, I think it might have light bley as well, but you can't see that.

Here it is without the weapons module. Presumably it would be possible for there to be other available modules to go in its place.

I'm thinking extra large weapons module, a passenger module, a medevac module, the Just One Really Big Huge Bomb module, a castle module, a moonbase module, a Rainbow Warrior module... the list of ideas goes on and on. Maybe I'll actually build some of them.

I'll give you a building tip, now that your stepdaddy has left you: copying Soren is a surefire way to earn you praise and compliments from other builders. Just ask Mike Yoder.

And here's the inside. The top computer panel just barely misses the pilot's head. Falke pilots are always petitioning for larger cockpits.

Sometimes I wonder what those two joysticks do. How many joysticks do you need on one starfighter? Yet nearly every fighter I build has those two joysticks.

The pilot pic shows why the Exploriens-Falke alliance is so important: Exploriens torsos looks cooler with white arms, and Ice Planet torsos look cooler with dark grey arms. The main purpose of both factions' space navies is to protect the trade routes for these arms.
