@daemon, You want to finish our old land battle?

So, I've been busy experimenting today with.... (insert drum roll here)..... "Armored" EVA/EXO-suit type craft. Mark 1 Prototype: These aren't useful outside of low-grav and hard vacuum, but I like the concept. So, once I've got up my next battle post (I'm job hunting currently), I'm going to make even better EXOs. (Before ya'll ask, the disk-rockets are for weak/ground targets, and the i-beams take the place of small autocannons if such a thing was developed.)

Agreed. Except with more mechs, and dakka.

UPDATE: I'm currently working on a new "fighter"... more of an orbital exo-suit... and I'm also going to have my next battle post for BrightBritches up tomorrow. My net's acting up a tad bit, plus my last exams are this week. Wish me luck!

I would definitely have started making a series already, if it weren't for the fact that my current graphics unit is in NO WAY capable of running KSP (or most games, for that matter) whilst recording video. I might be upgrading my GPU soon, though. That or I'll use a capture card. I have the VFX software to compile.... so otherwise it isn't too hard.

Yup, and my move'll be up ASAP. (Exams suck.)

It's ok, I got preoccupied this weekend, so I'll move tonight. Also, your ships took two shredder missiles in testing.... and no damage. :/ Nice job!

Damn. Ya beat me to the punch man! Time to finish my Insight-class... Also, hail hydra.

Hey BrightBritches, I now know what happened to the A.D.A.! Your shot somehow missed one side of the hull, then de-phased into reality (hmm....) on the other side. Thanks to my dual-layer armor, though, it did effectively NO DAMAGE. On another note, you now have shot a Kerbpaint paint job off of a ship. Nice aim man.

Oh, I'm sorry I wasn't clear in stating the tonnage rules. if you want to re-move you can. By the way, I'm now quite pleased with my hybrid-reactive armor plating design. Also, your ships look quite good, and have a very sci-fi feel to 'em... Nice work!

Here's the MU ODP-1 Thor, a "rods from god"-type orbital weapons platform! Gallery: Download: http://www./view/8f494ek533b5jff/MU_ODP-1__Thor_.craft (WARNING: Part count is HIGH. Proceed with caution. Also, it is the responsibility of the user to make a launcher for this station. I'm very lazy. )

I like to go overkill. Also, I use junior docking ports as my rod-mounts.

//!INCOMING CONTACTS!// Mechani Union vs. BrightBritches /Location: Laythe /Rules: Standard, plus: 1. K-Drive allowed (only for ships, no K-drive based weapons ) 2. Max weight is 110 tons, to help ya out. 3. Max parts is roughly 850-700, it depends on the ship/craft. 4. You may only field 4 craft. 5. You must put a station OR a base in an orbit of 100km or less (or landed) on the planet. This will be your "prize". 6. All combatant ships must STAY OUT from any orbits 115 km or lower. Whoever wins gets to obliterate and/or "take over" their opponent's "prize". The "prize" station/base is exempt for the part count rule, but try to stay under 1k if at all possible. MU "prize" is: /x1 ODP-1 Thor station, codenamed Paladin./ (Also, winner may bombard the planet into dust if they wish to do so. ) MU Expeditionary Force "Frisky Dingo": Persist: http://www./download/po9xnh83oct5tmf/persistent(8).sfs

Ok, time to break out the Size 3 turbo-torps and the K-Drives! It's Kraken-hunting time, ya'll!

Nice orbital weapon, though I would add that I try to stay all-stock, and that I've actually built guided rods and ODP resupply modules. I'm just too lazy to mess with guidance, and too worried my PC will die a horrific, Hell-Kraken based death if I added probe cores to all the rods, since ODP-1 Thor (the big one controlling Sif) is around 800 parts. (Thor originally had more rods and extras, but topped 1K parts by then, and was a tad bit too heavy. )

Alright, cool. I'll make sure to have some fair rules.

Ok, cool. You want to set up, or shall I?

So, I've finished the MU's newest frigate/patrol craft, the SX-4 Dominator. It sports 4 small ammo mounts (used for i-beams in pic), and has room for 2-4 1.25 meter rounds in the "cannon". *Amount of 1.25 meter ammo it can carry varies by ammo length.* The Dominator line also has both LV-Ns and Ion Engines, enabling long-range flight without needing large amounts of fuel. Anyhow, I'm still waiting for daemon's next move in my ongoing (for quite a bit now) surface battle, so I'm going to ask: Anyone up for a little skirmish? Nothing big, just a smaller, 3-4 ship battle to pass the time. (I also want to test the line-of-sight firing capability of the SX-4, and the firepower of my Ingressors )

While it's technically more of a satellite, it's size and purpose make it a station in my book. Meet my ODP-2 Sif.

Due to the high part count and somewhat large size of my ODP-1 Thor, I've made a mini-sat version that can be deployed en masse, controlled by a starship, ground station, or an ODP-1's crew. Meet the ODP-2 Sif.

Ok, thanks. I'll see what... upgrades... will work with it.

The trick is making sure the rods won't delete at 2.5 km if you're shooting at the surface, and just remember: IRL, a rod hitting even NEAR a target would be devastating.

Orbital Defense Platform "Thor": Carries 64 "rods from god"-esque kinetic impactors, and has strong orbital adjustment rockets. Fires 8 rods at once:

Looks good, I wish my boat-building attempts would go that well...

Now let's sit back and let the rods fly!
