There are point charts on the official forums to design balanced ships around.


A selection of the ships I've made up until now. Most have names taken from norse mythology.

Feel free to pit your best ship against my Odin...

My First Ship:

The Hammerhead:



Meant for uber-ship killing, heavily protected front, very manuverable and fast.Even has some weaponry to defend the back and sides.Flanker.

[Mathias]

Mmmh, looks like it could kill a stock battleship, but a stray bullet from an übership would total it. You should to fix your module parenting so that the "arms" holding the "hammerhead" aren't attached to the core.

Edit: Uh, silly third page not being the one I skip too. Sorry about this.

I was going to ask what a point is worth, but never mind.

Edit 2: Continue minding: What is a point worth, and how many points are we allowed to play with per ship?

And I'll probably get another edit in a few minutes when I fight the Odin.

And edit 3: Stupid Odin... you made it so the driver did 150 damage and had 100 clip size? And you gave your ship the damn warp jump thingy? Just as I get behind it, BOOM, it's infront of me again...

Don't make me send Ragnarok after you.

Zomg Star Destroyer!



Ha the ultimite space ship!

It's been improved since then. Also take into account it's my second model and was made during a polisci lecture.

-edit- Also it's to scale and it has over 120 assembled "peices" to make it that awesome not counting weapons.

The point being that you use a squad of five and come up from the rear.It is weird that they appear attached to the core, I could have sworn they were attached to the "wings".

ZOMG!!!Grand Moff Kirkov!


BTW:I'll upload the hammerhead soon, for those of you who may be interested.

No, THIS is a Star Destroyer.



Made by Novercalis of Wyrdysm fourms.

He has way too much time on his hands.

1: Because Star Destroyers are done to death and no offense, but yours looks more like a triangle of death.
2: Not sure, was going to ask him myself.
3: Nah keep trying, trust me, you get better the more you play with it. My first Dreadnought was glitchy to all heck.

WAAAAAAY to much HP buddy. Remove the weapons though and it could be a nice target practice target because of all that health.

Recap of the Odin epic

Shields don't protect against railguns.

So, I gave my ship about 50 railguns w/360 radius + bonus range/clip, pumped it full of aegises and invuln generators, and then took out three Odins.

Next up, making a balanced ship that can take down Odin. Or a fleet.

Edit: Quick note...

Took two-three sceptres distracting the Odin, and 4 Paladins and 4 Albions (Faster, semi-balanced, front-aegised ships) to take it out. About 15 minutes getting the side cannons down with the fleet, then the rest letting the Odin focus on the heavily shielded sceptres, and the Paladins and Albions focus on flanking it, and destroying the jump generator. Once that was done, moved into clearing out the back end, and then using the patented "Paladin mega cannon" on the cores. Note that those are just regular cannons, just so many it does a ton of damage

So, the Odin was a pain because everything was uber. And it had a lot of redundant sections w/Aegis.

Maybe he uses I/K and Shift+I/K to skew the shapes.

Once I've completed next week's exams, I'm so gonna waste my time editing some more ships.

One thing isn't clear to me though. How you choose what colour your ships will be?

[Waris]

Right click at the core.

Second Ship:

In a tribute to Grand Moff Kirkov's star destroyer, I have made a Death Star for Him:

Nice.

*waits for Lizzie to post a FUCKING Death Star from Wyrdysm forum *

[Dr. Strangelove]

Did you notice the opening in the back and how it only has 1 HP, but a ton of Aegises?

I can't get it to work though, some error that I have no ideer how to solve.

[Waris]

Why the reaction?

[Dr. Strangelove]

THat's the Exhaust port from the movie, it is practically invunerable every but there.As soon as you can get one shot down there, now matter how weak, it will go BOOM!

Your in luck. There is none.

[Dr. Strangelove]

No wonder why, mine doesn't work.

[Waris]

IIRC the ship's HP determines the core's HP. In this case you got it right. However, you can also set a custom HP for ship's sections. Just right click on a section and choose Set Custom HP or something like that.
