Ok i understand your point on the classification Rev, i thank you for it and yeah most of the ships i do for the BSG universe aren't the most agile ships ever made :P but with the frameworks inside you should be able to make it move around with ease

I gotta say this ship is amazingly detailed, probably the best battlestar looking ship on here thus far. I'm bad at ship making in this though and I scaled it up to 155% and upgraded to ogonite/avorion-- and now I can't make it turn worth a damn lol

There isn't really a need to worry about classification too much, "battlestar" is just a catchall term for a battleship/carrier hybrid. Presumably the colonial navy didn't consist solely of battlestars, but we never got to see much other than Pegasus and Galactica, with a little glimpse of the Valkyrie.

Firestars and Gunstars are basically railgun/point defense system focused battlestars, they're smaller in size due to not needing to have flight tubes interspersed through the ship. Check out the "Janus" or "Minotaur" gunships (I'd call 'em gunstars) from Battlestar: Deadlock for a good example of that design.

Ok, it makes sense, i see the picture. i'll change some classification on my ships :P Thanks for that

Nothing canon, the terms Gunstar and Firestar are fan created names. Generally speaking a Gunstar is similar to a Battlestar just without flight pods. And thanks man, i appreciate that.

Btw, i really like your creations WHS_Hitman, they are really nice

lol nice question, in fact i just created concept i received from a friend and i just copy paste the name and classification of the ship. Does the BSG Universe have specific rules for the classification of their ships ? If yes, can you send me a link for that or just explain how it works ?

Curious, Why call it a Gunstar if it has the flight pods like a Battlestar?
