Zhuikin -> Empire (the Evil Star Wars one) Shipset (5/16/2020 4:32:59 AM)

No space game is complete, until you roll over some xenos with a fleet of Star Destroyers.
Luckily, i happened to have a set of Imperial ships lying around. Rendered them a good while 3D Modeling for back for Space Empires 4.
I converted the set for my own use in DW-Universe and while not perfect, i was pleased enough and decided to share.
Unfortunately SE:4 was heavier on warships (there are a few spares even) and very on light civilians and bases, so i had to kinda kitbash stuff like mining ships and so on.
Also, the set was made around like 2010, so it's mostly original pictures stuff plus some comics extended universe, to fill in the ships not covered in the movies.
The ships are scaled sensibly against each other, but the set as a whole is slightly bigger, than standard DW ships (not crazily, maybe 20-30%). Star Destroyers are kinda big tho, so maybe it's OK. I use them as a extra set for my own empire only, so i scale in game as required anyway.
If used for AI you might want to adjust the scaling parameters in the design templates. Do not just resize the images tho, that might make the engine markers not work (depending on the algorithm used, scaling tends to blur/shift colors).
EDIT.: Now, that the awful forum engine finally allowed me to post pictures and links, its a good opportunity, to update the set with some tweaks i made while playing it. Mostly little stuff like engine glows and sizes.
But also changed around some of the civilian ships, to use more of the "Modular Cargo Barge" designs and included a few extra spares.
The updated file is in the second post.
