It's more of a psychological tool, I think. If you have a handful of battle cruisers and a few enemy BCs warp in you'll think "Oh, it's a fair fight."

But if a huge Assault Ship warps in instead any human controlled ships would immediately veer off. Why? Because the thing is freaking huge. No one in the right mind would engage it unless they had experience. Sadly, I believe when Futurecraft takes on that will not be the case with most of our ship commanders.
That's basically it. The ship would look awesome, at least compared to my other ships. Plus it would have hundreds of MACs.

Just //copy and //paste

I've never used //stack lol
I use copy/paste too, but t//stack would let me build the entire superstructure with 3-4 commands. It doesn't work vertically-diagonally, though, so that part would be copy/paste. I would use t/bind so I just hit keys in order over and over.

The 420-block long version of the ship may still get built. It has the same proportions, but fits in a vanilla world.

It's 60 blocks tall, so it would fit in a normal world, too.
The next size is 600 blocks tall. That would fit using some of the other world-height-changing mods.
Unfortunately, only CC increases world height enough to accommodate the full ship.

I have a 120-block frigate-thingie that's mostly done. It's probably actually a diplomatic ship, as it hasn't got any weapons. The interior isn't complete yet, though.

Noted. I'll see what I can do with that.

Any idea what I should do with these pods?

You could make room for some escape pods.

We have space suits and hangar bays, surely no more needs to be said? I appreciate your help Glad0s but I need something else.

I was considering making them pre-fab bases, but that wouldn't make much sense considering this is a space superiority vessel;

Imagine your ship torn in half, your out of reach of the fighters. A space suit isn't going to survive reentry.

So that will take 2 or 3 pods up. I still need to do something with the other 2.

I know, but they're designed to occupy planets as well. The Crusader is designed to zip around and hurt the enemy where it counts, not babysit ground troops.

You could fill the pods with chaff to launch behind you and mess up sensors.

That only works with guided things: We use lasers. Unless the said foe is still early to space. Then they might use early game weapons.

If the chaff was reflective, it could bounce a laser all over the place.

But that could go good or bad. On one hand, the laser hits the enemy. On the other, it bounces right back to you.

The Strigiforme Industries has developed a stealth lander that is designed to look like a 3 story iron house. The ship has laser defense turrets, disguised a missile launcher and a fighter launcher, and can be operated by one person. It costs about 20,000 K'lii
