| This ship is for directing a fleet and commanding them around, not a front line war vessel. It will specialize in shields and speed instead of weapons. It has a mission control room, an engineering bay, a greenroom, cockpit, 2 crew bedrooms, and a storage room. It has no visible engines, so post a bunch of hate comments if you like, but the way it played out I could not see a way to incorporate them without changing my hull, so right now it can fly with magic. Pictures: outside views: - Spoiler:
inside views: - Spoiler:
All the doors on the ship were piston doors so it feels more futuristic. This ship is on the server so if you want to actually walk through it its right next to that big ship with redlining in the desert as you can see. Alot of people helped me with the ship, with the exterior kennysmith, coalminingalchemist with the greenroom, blockman helped with parts, Talon made the engineering bay, and I filled in for the rest. Thank you for your help. | |

| This is like one of my Sköll class command ships. They are mildly stealthed, and can be easily fitted and refitted to and from space stations. They are also highly classified. | |

| I like it a lot! Very unique design that draws the eye. One thing I'd suggest, though, is to make it bigger to suit the role of commanding more. Then again, I suppose the size you have is a compromise between presenting a small target and mounting enough weaponry to fend itself off, eh? | |

| Thank you It will have a small turret when it is actually used in the finished mod, so a single fighter can't harass me, also the control room is a bit small, but that is true it is a small ship, it could bee expanded but I kept it spread out for lack of ideas of what to furnish it with, I made it like NASA's mission control room with the two big tvs represented as pictures in the ship. This ship will split the role of commanding the fleet, there will be ground bases also to help command other ships. It was made small on purpose, in the military today they have aircraft with roles like this, they take a vary big plane, put a big radar on top and they use that to command ground forces. It also has a small crammed control room, same idea as this ship. - Spoiler:

| I know what you mean, populating a huge ship is a pain in the arse. By ground bases to you mean this ship launches them itself on to asteroids, or are these created beforehand? I can see the former happening with a system like the Pods on Halo's Spirit of Fire...not sure if that's entirely feasible though | |

| Populating ships has been taken care of because the team plans to add npcs that will walk around ships to make them not seem like such a ghost town, This ship would be built in a shipyard on a planet then launched to command some other ships, probably no bigger than a dreadnought. Also this ship is meant to be escorted, though in multiplayer that would not always be possible, so that is why my ship needs a small turret. | |

| Populating meaning making rooms and such, sorry if I wasn't clear Is the ship carried with the dreadnaught? I can see it being latched on and then launched to the fringes of the battlefield to do what it does best when the need arises. | |

| Oh I see what you mean now, I did not really understand your other post, it could be launched by a dreadnought but it would probably be launched from the ground then stay constantly commanding, it would be independent, and fly for very long times without having to land or restock anywhere, though other smaller ships would resupply it while flying, that would be the only maintenance you would have to do with it. It is minecraft. | |

| UPDATE!!!
On the server, the command ship has been refitted with brand new armament. It is now a ship that is fit to go to battle. The front has a missile tube and bomb bays, very similar layout to that on mackeroth's cruiser. On top of the ship there are now 3 2 barrel artillery guns, that may or may not look cool, it makes the ship less sleek but, depending on what you like, may make it look cooler, and adds more firepower. I know that the guns may not be exactly as they are made by users in the finished mod, but still they look better than place holder. I am too lazy to add pictures on here, go view it on the server!!! | |
