This sounds....unrealistic lol

lol

im going to try and see if i cant reduce part count and then run a battle

[Dimas152]

so i made a coastal landing destroyer with nearly 120+ parts
even though it made only with stock and BDAc parts it can sink a LBP destroyer with 2 AMRAAM and a single stingray
kinda OP tho

[Piatzin]

Ooooooooooh I just had an idea...

We could make amphibious assault ships, load them up with trucks, and stage attacks on the KSC. (D-day style)

Made a new ship, ended up exactly as I wanted it, twice the Castellum is every respect.

The MHC-11 Arx. Twice the cost of Castellum, twice the size, well over twice the firepower (and a choppa), and unfortunately for @Earthlinger twice the parts, at 605.

Lol that's fine

[Piatzin]

So, er, the Renegade-class corvettes move amazingly fast once they've spent their fuel (90m/s), but they're also unstable. Pitching up will cause the entire ship to literally lift off, and turning hard will flip them. It's fine as long as you don't touch the S/W keys and turn carefully whilst tapping Q/E, but the sheer speed is not as reassuring as it should be

On a side note, I've decided to allow Tweakscale - but only for aircraft carriers and amphibious assault ships. Mainly because the battles here center around either 1V1's, where ships can be big, and fleet battles, where smaller part counts are favored. A fully stock carrier might look great, but it's really not as useful in the battles when it's going to take up most, if not all, of the part budget.

To build a carrier large enough to support a meaningful amount of planes and ground assault vehicles, you would need to make it very big. The MK3 cargo bays aren't sufficient to fit large rovers, and bays made from structural plates consume too many parts.

So I think we should allow Tweakscale for battles involving carriers. Structural plates can be enlarged to make the decks, and the cargo bays can be similarly bloated to support tanks. If, however, anyone has any complaints regarding this change, or wants to point something out, then I'm more than willing to listen

Nice! duel my titan

I was intending to have a 2 battlecrusier 1 axon missile thing vs the Titan but considering the 250 round tank factor of the titan i thought that would have been unfair....

@MiffedStarfish your ship looks like a much better match

gimme specs like gun count

something like 3 abrams, a lot of hydras and cruise missiles, some lasers and the choppa? (cant forget the choppa)

how many engines?

tho i actually have not seen it yet, im doing this on a regulated comp

Just want some tests run

@MiffedStarfish what computer do you have and what can it run?

How is that ugly lol

My computer could probably run about 1500 parts, Arx is 600. It’s got 3 Goliath engines,about 460km of range not accounting for lighter fuel loads at the end, 44 missiles, 3 LASORZ, 2 millenniums, 3 abrams, a goalkeeper, a load of hydra turrets, some 30mm chain guns, and of course the choppa.

The mentions are fine.

The AXON drone ships can be the appetizers

You have the same style of ship building as me lol Low part count and no armor

idk what will happen if i push it beyond the limit

Computer goes kaboom, possibly

[Sidestrafe2462]

for me i can go past 1500 parts loaded with freezing every time something blows up

[MiffedStarfish]

@Sidestrafe2462 can I get the download for the Titan please?
