Poll and Preview: Next Rocket

[Krayzeenbk]

If you voted for other, please specify which. If anyone has any pics of great-looking sci-fi rockets or other weird ones that don't look generic, I'd give those the highest priority (fantasy rockets...heheheh). I saw some good rockets before, but cannot find them now, so I'm stuck with these and some others that look kinda generic, although I believe I could make them look unique enough.

Pics of the Minuteman III, Satan , and DF-5, in order:

This will be the preview thread for whichever rocket is chosen.

DF-5, just because China doesn't have many modern flavor units.

 

[MarineCorps]

The china one if only because we have the atlas for America and the R7 for Russia.

 

[Krayzeenbk]

It does say in parentheses....

EDIT: The second is from the former USSR - meaning Russia, in Civ and modern terms.

EDIT2: Wow that's some pretty fast editing skills

 

[MarineCorps]

Yeah I know. Just saw that. I can't read

 

[Straczynski]

I guess everyone here wants the DF5.

That's for sure... I counted about 5 or 6 edits in your first post, all before the edit timer ran out, and many while I was replying to your edits with some of my own

EDIT: For Wizard below: it's called "spam avoidance"

 

[MarineCorps]

5 or 6? Hmmm, lost count after 3.

 

[Ankka]

You guys really like editing your posts or what?

 

[MarineCorps]

nah I just was stupid and didn't read the poll. My post unedited read: "I will refrain from voting until I know what contries the last two are from". Then I saw that yoda had posted right before me so I edited to say this:"ok just the second one". then I saw the countries names in the poll so I changed it to this:"The middle one is my vote". then I relized I had the wrong one and edited it to what you see now. Hows that for memory?

 

[Krayzeenbk]

No, then you realized you had the wrong one, and you edited it to say "the china one". Then you added the rest of the sentence. How's that for memory

AHEM - SPAM SPAM SPAM

OK so sue me. Back on topic: Why not just do the China one first since Russia and america already have their own nukes thanks to you.

 

[Gogf]

I say do them all. What you do now... I'm not sure.

I'd agree on that one ... since there is already a SATAN default available I voted on China. Yet, the two previous ICBMs were of older make than the ones in question right now.

 

[Bluemofia]

i voted DF-5 because you already made a bunch of nukes for america and the soviet union.

 

[recon1591]

may i make a request plz.

before i went into the green berets i was part of a unit in germany that guarded Perishing 2 and 3 mid range missiles. they were the USA's worst mightmare for the USSR while they were deployed in germany before the INF treaty. Is there anyway u would concider doing 1 for me.

 

[aaglo]

How about this

 

[Boba Fett]

The LG-118A PEACEKEEPER

more info here It's supposed to be bigger but thats the only pic I could find.

 

[Krayzeenbk]

@recon1591: It's very likely that I will make a Pershing II soon

@aaglo: Can you provide some more screenshots? hehehe...

@Boba Fett: The Peacekeeper is a generation younger than the Satan, which I took for a reference point when deciding which American ICBM to pair with it (therefore the Minuteman III). If and when I do a Topol or such, I will do a Peacekeeper. But these missiles are ultra-genereic. While I could still write CCCP all over the Satan and pick an interesting color scheme for the Minuteman, it will all start getting very old by the time I get to the late 80s-90s missiles.

DF-5, Pershing II, and the almighty Planetbuster are looking like the next few rockets to work on, in that order...
