Old Ships
Overview
This expansion pack adds 8 ships to the Universe,
the Bushmaster Miner (ArcElite)
Cat/Cougar (Elite2)
Chameleon (EliteA)
Ghavial (EliteA)
Iguana (EliteA)
Monitor (EliteA)
Ophidian (EliteA)
Salamander* (EliteA)
of these, only the Bushmaster is an NPC only, due to the Miner's Guild restrictions preventing 'just anybody' from flying it
- Salamander is, from what I've been able to find, a 'myth-name'.
the models are either taken by eye-measurement via the great collection of ships by John Mackay at http://mackayj.doosh.net/, or in the case of the EliteA ships, true to the original given coordinates.
the original designs are, from what I can tell, by Warren Burch & Clive Gingras for the Bushmaster, by Ian Bell for the Cat/Cougar, and the rest by Angus Duggan,

Difficulty Rating
"Medium" This OXP adds 8 new ships, most the ships added are within the power-range of the Classic Elite Ships with most profound exception the Iguana. The Iguana carries a twin laser and it extremely dangerous as a pirate.This OXP simply adds more variety to the ships you will encounter in the space lanes and find for sale in Shipyards. This OXP is a SHIPS OXP. Install it and everyone can fly these ships, the Player and NPCs alike.
