Elite Nostalgia

[Francois]

I've never played the original Elite.....

but these ship cards here of Elite (1984) are so nice !

Judging by the colors, I'd say those are Elite Plus models.

aw ok

Original Elite (1984) doesn't have a few of the models IIRC... eg Caiman. And if you removed the colours, imagine them with just lines, no textures... that's 1984 Elite.

For example, your avatar is the 1984 Cobra MK 3.

It's a nice chart at any rate, especially without the Amiga addition, the Wolf MK II. That one stood out a bit, in the repertoire. Very imaginative use of colors too. Not so bleak and modern somehow.

I believe that they are from Archimedes Elite

first time I've ever read the text about the moray starboat. I really hope FD introduce it with those capabilities so that when they add planetary landing we can take it under water

Those of ED will be more pleasant

They are.

It always feels like those are the "right" colours for the ships to me.

Me too. I've always wanted to be able to do this.
