Goa'uld Needle Threader Goa'uld Needle Threader

Greathor, 2006-09-20

Finally! Now you can have fighter vs. fighter action with the Tau'ri fighters and this, the Goa'uld Needle Threader fighter. Whilst bigger than the standard fighter, this one is easier to target but naturally, packs that bit more of a punch. Whilst not seen too often in SG-1, these were dis-continued old fighters that were about a century old and coming to the end of their use for the Goa'uld. Of course, don't expect to take on any capital ships with this...as you'll most likely die. Instead, take a swarm of these and flood the enemy defences with them while the larger and more powerful Ha'tak's can take down the target.

In terms of the mod itself, it's up to usual Greathor and co. standard. Comes with very nice admirals pic, build button and wireframe along with one set of textures (which I must say, do look a little 'washy' on the close ups) and a very-close-to-canon mesh, this will be ideal for anyone wishing to expand their Goa'uld side, albeit on the more miniature side of things. Stargate fans, this would be a fun download for you. Non-Stargate fans...want a good looking fighter?

"these were most likely designed as a counter to the Tau'ri's new fighter line"


this isnt true, the one seen in stargate was over 100 years old and the model had been discontinued


^_^

This ship was ment to be able to fly through the Stargate/chappa'i long, long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away.

hince the puddle jumper :P Pretty sure this ship was based off of that, but since i only saw it in one episode I'm not sure.

Could be the Goa'uld made this ship in honor of the puddle jumper, but, we saw the puddle jumper afdter seeing this ship in SG-1.

This was never designed in honor of the puddle jumper, because the Goa'uld as a whole didnt even know about the ancients. It was designed by aphopis as far as i know for an advantage over other system lords. :D
