Battleships Forever

AI on AI the Odin did kill the Oppenheimer, though. Once it got close, the arm beamers reached behind the neck and severed it pretty fast. Against both of them, naturally the arms exploded fast to those modified shock beamers.

Mooncleaver beaten, with the ship that is so 1337 that it beats anything and with the uber ship.

Am I the only one who makes modest ships -_-


My ships may look powerful, but often suffer from poor turret coverage and, most of all, excruciating maneuverability. So with good micro, smaller ships can defeat them quite easily. And if the maneuverability is actually somewhat good, like the Schwalbe, the ship is a fighter and hence has very poor armour protection.

NOTE: All direct support ships, like their WWII counterparts, have only forward-facing weapons (with the exception of the occasional flak turret in the lighter variants), so attacking from the sides or rear is imperative to bring these monsters down.


Yeah. but even if they have no weapons from the behind, their forward weapons will rape most ship before they can flank them :P


Oh, don't be so sure, Mr. President..... *ahem* The maneuverability is so atrocious that a pair of Hestias can pretty much pwn the crap out of most of these things. The guns fire, one of 'em is damaged/destroyed, the other ducks to the flank/rear and has plenty of time to pour fire into the exposed, weaponless sections while the Panzer is straining to turn and get the Hestia in its sights again.

Plus, I only use stock weaponry. No modifications.

Nidmeister, if you want me to challenge your uber-ship so badly, why don't you upload it?The Edward Teller will just beat it any ways.

I'm guessing the surprise on your ubership, Dr strangelove, is modified shock beamers, to make huge lasers, as I demostrated earlier in this thread?
let's see how it fares against my J890 :nod:

Ok, in the test run of your ship, against something small... HOLD YOUR HORSES there buddy...
Those lasers are WAYYY to powerful to be anything legal even in custom ships, in relaistic effect that should destroy half of your ship too, and with 3 of them, the firing rate is too much, not even kenny went that far with his SHEL lasers...
I doubt anybody would take that on and call it a fair fight :wahhhhhaa:

Apart from maybe lizzie, she's insane, yet brilliant enough to create something to absorb the shock of that thing... tenfold...

Edit;
In review of the stats of those lasers, damage of 50 is the highest you should really go, before it laggs the crap out of people's computers. 100 is just insane... but with that kind of damage pumping out of them I'd say your ship is the most uber I've come across yet.

I'll upload a video of your ship eating through my Mauler when I pit them against each other...

Who said I had to play fair?

BTW:upload that uber ship of your, I want to fight it.

EDIT: Have you seen the HMS Edward Teller, at 10,000 damage, it wipes away everything on the map!

"Who said I had to fight fair?" Dunno, but atleast try to make something less retarded than a fighter-speed "battleship" with a map wiping shock beamer.

I won't back off from a challenge, though. This is the lamest ship ever and it beat both of your überships at the same time in an AI fight. Enjoy.

Isn't it obvious that the map wiping superbeam was a joke???I didn't intend it for serious competition.

I see people are beating the Odin with (presumably) railgun spam or fully aegised ships. How about I add two more arms to it when Shipmaker 3.0 is out? :P

Your ship beats my fully aegised one on a frontal assault, but if I manage to direct my first shot properly, your Odin goes down. Because of my ships low health, I don't exactly know what the effect is, but when all your beamers concentrate on it, it rapidly depletes and explodes from the centre.

Aegis deflectors can be overwhelmed by very high damage if the section HP is low, because all shieldlike modules work by rapidly replenishing HP.

I think we should have competitions based on 5 Classes: Fighter, Patrol Craft, BattleShip, Destroyer and Flagship.

Rules: Each ship must be within certain boundaries. A few ground rules:
Weapons must have very few, if any mods.

Rules for fighter:
Max 200 Health
Fast, around 3-5 speed.
Very Few weapons/segments. Like 4 Max Segments, and max 2 weapons per sgegment.

I'll make more later. IMO, a good exapmle of a modest Flagship:
