Armada 2 classical screenshot and our remake in Defence Line. What do you think? Have a look:

Looks very nice, I can't wait to try out the game.
Allow me some constructive criticism though: Your models look fantastic but there should be either deeper shadows or the surfaces should have more reflection because currently they look slightly plastic.

This screen is just a stylization in Armada 2 style. The real gameplay looks a bit different.

Ladies and Gentlemen! Today, I'd like to congratulate my brother Arsen Bagdasarov (u.s.s.sovereign) with his birthday. He's 25 years old now. He has done so much for the project. The Defence Line would look completely different without his work. He is a texture artist in our team, however, he has created tech trees for game factions, ships abilities (they're still to be scripted) and more. Happy Birthday, Arsen Bagdasarov (u.s.s.sovereign)!
This video took three days to be completed.
Used models:
U.S.S.SOVEREIGN - Ed Giddings (ship name and registry are redone by me).
U.S.S.CONSTITUTION - Gene Kim-Eng (ship name and registry are redone by me).
U.S.S.DEFIANT - Jonas Ljungberg.
U.S.S.AMBASSADOR - Kenny_Z (ship name and registry are redone by me).
U.S.S.AKIRA - Ian Bremner.
U.S.S.INCURSION - Star Trek Armada 2.

Exactly! The strongest buildable Federation vessel.

Ladies and gentlemen! Today we celebrate the "two-year-and-two-days" birthday of our project! Yes, I am two days late. However, we did a lot of work since the last year.

Here is the list of our achievements:

1) We created the new interface system (all the controls are now located on the MSD panel);
2) The UI moved to the other interface system. More complicated though has more functions;
3) In-game physics was changed;
4) The Ai is now recovered and upgraded (as it died our while I was working on physics);
5) A huge amount of starships and stations are added to our armada. Thanks to all the modellers who created a great stuff. A special thanks to TUB_Husker, who made a marvellous work for our project.

This video is made by me. You will see something (or someone) you to meet in the complete game. In addition, you'll see Klingon and Romulan starships: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aipaL_kTP8c
