Looks like you took some inspiration from Salvation MkII for the back side

It was really just cramping around the engines, to save armor and cover them XD

UPDATE: Added RCS and took of a bunch of struts, she's a little heavier, but only 581 parts.

I'm seeing an increase in part counts across the board here. Zekes' dreks in the upper 500s, Scriptkitt3h's 810 part battleship, and a new battleship I'm working on has 600 parts and isn't even armed... Makes me wonder what effect lag has on missile effectiveness. Is it a defensive or offensive benefit?

Scoot over Spartwo, You've got company

... by the way, you wouldn't happen to have any fuel, would you? Even with two 20-Ton drop tanks I'm on fumes... BUT I MADE IT!

For the first time my ships are NOT way bigger and more complex than everyone else's... I must be doing something right!

Victory's in the lower 400s, with her armament. I'm going to try to add better armour and better weapons soon though.

EDIT: I'll add some drop tanks onto Victory's larger docking ports later and see if I can get to laythe, I mean, how hard can it be?

My warship is 381 parts yet is a similar size to the dreks, if not larger. I just don't get how you guys end up with such high part counts. :/

Lots of weapons. Lots and lots of glorious weapons...

Also, the SX-10's my only 810 part ship so far, and most of my older (and still 100% functional) designs are a bit easier on the RAM. :P

I'm on my Laptop at school right now, so imgur is blocked :P But I shot two missiles into a Victory-Class... The first missile took out some armor in the center and threw the capsule into space (so the crew isn't dead, thankfully)... the second shot took out half her engines, and she's out of electricity, so she's dead. I'd have stolen her weapons but her docking ports are shielded and the weapons aren't reloadable... shame :P but you're down a ship.

I would fight you! If we can raise max range to 3 km ( i REALLY don't want to be in load range of those ships; it would be much less laggy)

Sure, lemme set up a persist.

Also, I did test out the Drek (an older 0.25 variant, but still an 0.25 one) VS. my SX-10.

(I sadly forgot to take an aftermath pic, but the SX-10 survived, minus the upper bridge area, and with some of the cannon's hull plating screwed up. However, all fuel and other weapons were A-OK.)

All in all, the Drek line is still tough-as nails, but they're not invuln (nor any any ships, for that matter).

The SX-10 is a tough son-of-a-gun, and the line should prove to be quite useful.

Remember kids, this is why you NEVER spam spacebar when using a KSP warship. :P

DL link plz,

I think i can crack it.

BTW, pic of wreekedge

I know, the XXV has a big flaw, and that is the wing plating on top of the armor is thicker than the armor so the armor ends up getting clipped inside of it, which makes it much less stable. The XIV-V and XXVII are both wingless, so they are much less likely to crack (XIV-V is about 10% chance and XXVII is 5%, at least as far as my testing goes)

This will be an impressive slugging match XD

Seeing all these other ships that can survive multiple SRBs to the hull make me feel so inadequate.

Yeah, i was gonna say you have a problem with main armament on your Battleships, only two SRBs and about a dozen I-beams aren't gonna cut it for a 200 tonne ship, not to mention they're not reloadable...

How do you place the wings above the armour? When you place them they always clip with the armour.

the old wings used to not clip, i don't think... anyway clipping on armor is bad in general XD
