I finally finished off the anarchistic battleship I've had sitting around for a few months now!  The carrier will be up soon as a flag ship for the Italian fixed wing fleet.  The battleship  (fast battleship to be more precise) is a flat grey with a large python logo starboard side and and an asian style dragon port side.  the design is based on a Albatros flown on the eastern front by Bohme/Lademacher of Kasta 10 during the Summer of 1916. You can find more in the aircraft at the following link: http://www.wwi-models.org/Images/Pearson/art/index.html

My back story for this ships is that it is an advanced airship that was built and maintained by a band of rouge scientists and is one of the most advanced ships in skies, crewed by rouge soldiers with the intent of halting piracy and imperial abuse of colonial states,very Nemo inspired if you hadn't guessed.  Despite it's dirigible look it in fact a well armored aeronef with a large bow ram, lots of guns, and speed and agility like on other ship of it's class.  It also has the ability to carry 2 fighter flights on board.  The ship will usually be fielded alone with only fighters for support and possibly the two large sea planes from older posts.
