Shadow Lane

I shot it once, it fell apart, I went to the space center, I cycled through the probe and ship cores, and they were inoperable, why is this so hard for you to believe? I shot it and it died.

I switched to it afterwards, it was inoperable.

I didn't know it's weak spot, I just hit it and it broke.

Well, we'll see in the upcoming battle, won't we?

The missile didn't even use a quarter of it's fuel.

I took down one of those ships in a single shot from 200M.

Take, for example, the splitty-thingy that I designed, now, I know that none of you have seen it, but the principle was to make the armor out of smart missiles so that even if the ship went down, it would be like breaking a bee hive open, sure, you've killed the ship, but now you're being chased by at least 48 missiles.

It doesn't... Work, that way, look, you'll see what I did in the coming battle, but I need to finish up my fleet first.

By the way, I don't think that we should allow smart missiles, they make ships far too hard to kill.

What are you talking about? I obliterated that ship with a single shot and rendered it completely inoperable with a missile the size of a Poodle.

Mother of God! I decided to do a weapons test on the Unrelenting Warrior, it's in pieces! There's debris everywhere. So much for plating.

Just to make this clear, I have no expectations to win or even survive this battle, I simply want to test design principles and ships.

Alright, rule four pretty much destroyed my entire "Invincible-missile-splitty-shippy-thingy" since the entire thing is technically a smart missile with smart missiles on the smart missile and then more smart missiles on the smart missiles on the smart missile. I'm trying to design a fleet for this battle. To avoid confusion, I figure we should just have a free for all, and if two of us decide to stop shooting each other temporarily, so be it.

Rules of engagement?

The entire ship is a missile. It's a missile with missiles on the missile!

I tried to film a weapons demonstration. Out of more than sixteen shots, I missed on every single one, I am the worst pilot ever.

A little over 509 Tons. This ship is a prototype, and is messily constructed, if the system proves it's worth, I'll produce a second, properly constructed, version. EDIT: Please realize that the ship is designed to split apart upon engagement, and that the plating is little more than a warhead.

How do I measure the weight? Is there a plugin for this, or do I just have to add it up?

Speaking of which, perhaps we should host fights based on tonnage, making lighter ships like fighters more prolific than dreadnoughts.

What class? Honestly, I don't know what class to put a ship of this particular... Style, into.

I may only have one ship, but that one ship is an unholy and nearly invincible death machine with 52 missiles. The fleet should be done by the end of today. EDIT: Actually, that one ship is essentially a bunch of guns stuck together with some armor plating, and a lot of smaller guns on the armor plating.

Have at thee!

Can I throw my fleet into this?

He also invented the term "Shrike Class" to the best of my knowledge.

Dear Recreational Spacecraft Incorporated, we have similar interests, I propose that we associate ourselves with each other, pray tell, have you a Skype address?
