I might download it and make some TA inspired ships.

My Third Ship:

This has not been playtested yet!

The Avenger:



Named after the famed US WWII torpedo bomber, these are good for manuevering around and attacking battleships at their weak points:

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.

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.

There's no way it couldn't work, assuming you do the right thing:

1. Place weapons
2. Right click, then select Set HP, Clip Size etc. (This has to be done manually to each weapons on the ship)
3. Save and upload in sandbox
4. ????

[Dr. Strangelove]

I do that but it just doesn't work.eg. I start a game with the new ship with customized weapons and they don't fire.

My flagship. It can beat Mathias' Odin in 1v1 with correct micro. If you want to challenge it, hit me up on MSN.

[Waris]

Of course, nothing would be able to beat that. Even my ship a few pages back is at least 'beatable'. There's simply zero weak point o that ship.

[Alias]

Without micro Mathias' ship kicks the shit out of it. Shields can only stop so much.

[Strategia]

Panzer IV - Light cruiser. Adaptable hull design to allow for variants. (Panzer IV chassis was the most widely-used German AFV chassis in WWII, that's why.)



Panther - Heavy cruiser.



Tiger - Battlecruiser.



Konigstiger - Heavy battlecruiser.



Maus - Dreadnought.

My current Flagship. It's pretty good.

[General Kirkov]

Is there a way to make the sand box map bigger? so I can have a fleet engagement without seing the other fleet at the edge of my formation?
-edit- are there custom weapons/turrets available for dl. Also how do I make a carrier ship work? You know with drones and stuff.

Right-click on the Sandbox button.

That was quick thanks!

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.



Hummel - Long range fire-support. Based off of the Wespe hull.



Grille - Light fire-support. Based off of the Panzer I hull.



StuG III - Direct support, anti-capital. Based off of the Panzer III hull.



StuG IV - Heavy direct support, anti-capital. Based off of the Panzer IV hull.



Brummbär - Heavy direct support, anti-capital. Based off of the StuG IV/Panzer IV hull.



Sturmtiger- Very heavy direct support, anti-capital. Based off of the Tiger hull.

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.

Does anybody know why this might be happening!?

[General Kirkov]

How do I make carrier ships work? How do I add the launchers what are they called and yes I'm a total newb but my next master piece kicks total arse. Really it does look sweet.

AFAIK, the Demeter is the one you want. It launches those little round drones that zip about enemy ships.

Personally, I don't think this game looks to good

[Waris]

Either that, or the Demeter Pod Launcher module, or both. The difference between them is that the Pod Launcher launches six extended-life Demeter drones, unlike 3 standard Demeter drone for the smaller launcher. However the Pod Launcher is a module rather than weapon emplacement, so you have to fire them manually and it takes longer to recharge.

This page is all you need for infos on modules and weapons.

Looks aren't everything. It may not have state-of-the-art OMGWTFBBQ 3D graphics or 28000000000 poly models, but it's got it where it counts.
