Any idea what kind of Warship was in the trailer?

Might have been a monsoon?

There is a Congress just behind the Monsoon here.

At a guess it is a Congress. The Texas design doesn't quite fit and the Sovetskii Soyuz doesn't either.

Given the drive arrangement, that looks like an Avatar class to me.

Got this from Sarna :


More details on the SLS Nebraska can be found here - it was a Texas Class ship.

That would kinda fit the video...

In my head cannon it made sense

And here is @HBS_Kiva (then HBS_thratchen) with the definitive HBS response, "...also just because i want to put it to bed: the thing being destroyed in the trailer is a jumpship. but we're trying to build a unified visual style for ships in our game, one that feels compatible with the visual style of PGI's super-cool 'mech models, so a lot of the design elements were re-used. the argo was not blown apart, it definitely didn't enter the gravity well of a 1G earth-like planet (you'd never be able to get it out again!), and it was not important enough to feature in anybody's cinematic retelling of the amaris civil war or the succession wars.

it's just a nearly textbook example of a white elephant. and it's my baby. "

Thanks Prussian Havoc. I have to admit though, that is one beefy jumpship. The thrusters in particular look insanely large given their utility. Overall I do like the unified art direction they are taking. It certainly looks better to me than a lot of the updated art in the 3057 manual.

Thank you my good man!

If I recall correctly, the second Argo class dropship was dismantled after the start of the Armais coup. Could that be a custom warship built using the parts?

Not according to Kiva (as quoted in Prussian's post)
