Starmade (Since i dont think we have a thread on this forum)

Anyways; here is my latest ship; its pretty ugly, but is a complete tank. Getting the resources for this was not fun :/

I have yet to build a ship larger than a fighter.
..also I should maybe start playing Starmade again, it's been a while.

I play quite a lot on this server, if anyone wants to come on

I was working on an assault cruiser recently, the UTC Deimos class. I designed it to go toe to toe with bigger enemy ships and space stations. As all of my assault configurations all of the ship's firepower is frontal, with the exception of the turrets that can rotate around but those were mainly designed to keep small annoying foes out of my face and still are capable of shooting forward.

The ship is armed with a heavy forward cannon (linked 750 blocks together) and some good shielding to survive incoming fire. In addition the ship carries four Ignis Mk.1 turrets on the sides to destroy smaller ships that the main cannon cannot track together with the 2 heavier Ignis Mk.2 cannons that can also engage small capital ships (Each cannon is 120 cannon blocks linked together, average capital ship weaponry ! The Ignis Mk.1 turrets carry 56)

The ship also mounts a small hangar bay for shuttles and transports that can be used to board enemy ships (in theory, practically all you can do is fill them with explosives right now).

Spoiler:

My main problem right now is powering that beast without ruining the interior looks, so far it seems almost impossible to me and I will probably dedicate parts of the ship to just to be filled with cells (should probably give me x5 more power than I get from my pretty generators). Thankfully so far I probably completed less than 50% of the interiors so there is what left to fill.

Stats for the ship I showed:
(120 blocks long; 100 blocks wide and 20 blocks tall) It has 2000 missile blocks arranged into many missiles. 2000 Antimatter cannon blocks; again arranged into many cannons. It has a shield rating of about 170,000 and has more than enough power to run engines and weapons at the same time. It also has 5 turrets; 4 smaller ones and a big one. It took out an fairly heavily shielded cruiser (80 blocks long) in around 10-15 seconds.It also has an AI unit; since I am too lazy to fly it in combat most of the time.

A Starmade thread, eh? I guess I'll post whatever Starmade stuff is on my imgur.


OSV - My First Capital

Spoiler:

My Fleet As of The Tenth of July

Spoiler:

I have other ships, one had gone undocumented and was later cannibalized to build a new capital ship.
On my singleplayer game I was working on a space station that is built onto a shop, it was going well until I bumped it with a ship that was to be sacrificed for the build. I was also working on a space station that would serve as a sort of deathstar (mobile space station with a big gun).

I noticed that building the small turrets is quite pointless as they get destroyed by incoming fire, kinda annoying they have separate shields, my turrets are like 1/3 cannon 2/3 shields.

BTW targ how did you fit so many cannons, energy and shields onto that hull ? It is not that bigger than mine (mine might be thin at the front but it is slightly longer and the back part is just giant and prob makes the ship twice as big), did you pretty much fill the whole interior and turned it solid ? And also what's your regen rate ? THat is the stat that matters on shields.

For my interior I have a bridge; that's it :DMy ship is basically solid cannons in honeycomb alternating with missiles. I never have, and never will like building ship interiors (With the exeption of your map, that was fun, though I wasn't very good at it)In starmade I think interiors take up too much room even if they do make ships much more immersive. And the regen rate for the shields is 6469/s btw

What texture pack are you using?

Those ships look great guys! They actually fly too?

@Laser, provided you have sufficient energy and engine power, yes.

Horiz-Class Picket Frigate (WIP)

Spoiler:

EDIT: For the time being, all my projects are on hold as my space station is currently under pirate control. When I decide I want to try to deal with them, I will return to the nearest shop, purchase one of my combat ships and proceed to (attempt) to remove the threat. Upon success I will be repairing the Horiz-Class and any other damaged equipment then continue building them. NOTE: This edit is temporary and will be removed when it no longer applies.

Hey I'm going to join that server targareyan and if you help me with the founds I have a very interesting ship design in mind (and as it's multiplayer it is going to be a solid block ), In theory I will just need a shop fully stocked with all sorts of blocks which is generally hard to come by in MP ...

I am on at the mo

Progress on my lagtstic fiend of death:


I swear if I ever ram anyone in this we are all screwed..

Well it all went well till the server horribly crashed O.o, Must say though success ! It is possible to have interior and a functional ship.

Now all that is left for me is to decide what crap am I going to waste the rest of the space on ... Spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaace !

 Surprisingly I don't think it was me that crashed it  I also have quite a lot of space to fill though whether I can be bothered to do interior idk  Hmm..Should I or should I not?

Well were screwed, my has glitched somewhere and hit something; and now the server is burning

Yea I noticed, now go there and delete that damn thing, I thought it is gonna end up this way ...

I cant delete it; I have no idea where it is and cant see it

How ? You were supposed to be in it ...

I was; but I was moving; and when you log back in you get out and the ship keeps moving

Well god help us -.- .

Perhaps we should find another server to destroy

Behold my fuckbrained glorious ship!

I don't think I'm trying hard enough...
