Also, if anyone has some idea about what the C layout might be like i'll gladly take them in consideration. I have the graphics and everything, i just don't really know what strategy the ship should have. I was thinking about a drone-based ship or something, but i couldn't create an offensive anti-drone drone..! : \
This was the ship recolour. It's just... that it's so bland, man! : \
If you're doing the drone thing, it probably needs drone recovery arm and defense scrambler(disables opposing defense drones). CE has a specialist decoy drone, not exactly sure what that does, but it could do something similar, talk to Sleeper Service.
I'd love to see a 2 weapon 4 drone ship.
If you want a unique artillery... I like the bio-beam idea, or something like hitting with 3 bombs with heavy system+crew damage(like 4 system, 60 to crew).
For a Type C layout, you should add a lot of AE features, like the vanilla Type C's, add Hacking or Mind Control (why not both?), and replace the Medbay with a Clonebay. Add a Lanius crew or two. Add a Chain Laser instead of a regular Burst Laser. Done.
Not a big fan of using drones though. I don't like how you can't aim them and there is basically no skill involved in using them. I'd just stick to AE stuff for the Type C.
"The ship of a former space clown turned space pirate, who is enacting his vengeance against a universe who laughed at him."
I'm thinking along the lines for of a 'forceful removal of enemy crew' kinda style for this ship.
One crew only (zoltan or human maybe)
Weapons:
Ion Blast
Fire Beam
Hull Laser
Anti Bio Beam
Weapon power: 3, can run ion blast and one other weapon.
After that I have no idea.
Also I got a problem with the fire starter ship. Whenever I try to select the ship in the hanger my game crashes, even when I'm not using any other mods or advanced edition.

What did you do exactly? I just tried installing the 3.0 version on a clean FTL that i just downloaded from steam, and it seemed to work fine! It's meant to be used with Slispstream Mod Manager. If you want i can write you a quick step by step guide. : )
Whoops. Dowloaded the 1.6 off the page, instead of the 3.0. Silly me.
Thanks
Oh, more more thing I noted with the firestarter is that with two weapon slots there is no autofire button. Even when I pressed 'v', the guns wouldn't fire automatically.
i want someone to make a ship that replaces the osprey (fed. cruiser type A) for a long time because i cant complete the game with it even on easy. i suck at this game. i just wanna be able to play some of the other mods here (i use AE) if you could make me one i shall be ever in your debt.
Wow, fantastic sprite art, I love the flame paint job on the Firestarter, though in theme very different from the FTL stuff, the approach is so fitting.
How did you do it pixel by pixel or did you have some image software trickery to make it quicker?
