Description:
Today we got a very unique ship (it is so at least for Armada 2 players) from Adam_Atlantian.
This is a much improved version of the Pangalactic Federation Battleship included in the 'Star Ocean: Till the End of Time' mod for Armada 1. Ye, maybe it's just me but i must say that this blue baby just looks damn cool  and it will definitely catch your eye on the battlefield.
It does a nice job in skirmish and seems well balanced for its high costs and build time. Armed with some strong dual pulse weapons & torpedos at the front it can take out most stock ships in a few seconds. Additionally it got some kind of 'uber phaser', the Creation Canon which does a lot of damage to a single ship or station; the ships itself can take a whole bunch of it  .
New weapon textures, wireframe and build button are included and be sure to check the readme for some interesting background information.
Worth downloading!

---Pangalactic Federation Battleship---
The Backbone of the Pangalacitc Federation. There were thousands of them distributed around the Galaxy before the Executioner onslaught. Now only a few remain. The most notable of which is the Aquaelie. The ship is powerful, but even the mighty fall. It can release powerful vollies of pulse fire and dual torpedoes. Its mostnotable wepon is of course the Creation Cannon. It fires a high yield beam of Creation energy which can nearly rip the shields of a cruiser to shreds.
Note: This ship is for Armada 2 only.

A very nice ship I like it.
No excuse not to use that sig now Adam.  
The ship looks great, especially the textures on the engines.
PS: The glow on the mining station in one of the pics looks really cool.
Love the weapons... nice ship.. great work
Not overly impressed by the torpedoes (makes me think of flowers) but other than that: wowzers man. From the back it looks totally God damn frikkin' awesome. From the rest, it just looks regular plain ol' frikkin' awesome. 10!
I really love the way this ship looks, but it also reminds me of the Disney's classic(and STILL FANTASTIC) computer animation movie ahead of its' time: TRON! Heck, if I can find that DVD, I'm gonna watch it again and be 'in total bliss' - GREAT JOB though!
I think this just might be my first quality submission without any problems. I wanted to ask a few questions though, 1.) Does the creation cannons animation work?(are the specks moving, I have the demo and it didn't seem to be working right.) 2.) Is the lightmap showing up correctly? (Again, the Demo is so heavily lighted you cant really tell if a ship is lightmaped or not.)
You can just PM me the answer if you like. Glad you all like it and make sure and keep a hold of those weapon textures *wink wink*
Hello:
This ship looks awesome!, I specially like how those details glow, the impulse engines and windows are great!, I wish I can do ships (specially the textures) like those.
20/10 
adam, it was a very good decision to go away from that greyish textures. much more ocean now. a true beauty.
Adam! Dear lord man I am impressed. Good job man, ship looks awesome!
Hi, I am having a bit of an issue with the PanGalactic Fed ship on the Armada 2 game. It seems to have a white blob in its center. I was wondering if you know why that might be ? Also I was wondering if you had any other ships besides the Vendeeni and the Pan Galactic Federations ship and any stations for Armada 2. I am playing Star Ocean Till the End of Time for the first time on PS2 great game. I have been into the Armada 2 mods for awhile longer so I was excited to see that there were Star Ocean creations for it. I tried sending you an e-mail but your address came up invalid. Just thought you should know.
Thanks, Xander.
