Shadow Lane Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Wow, this ship can take a beating.... What range are you all shooting from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zekes Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 so is it good, Mr Tegu? for a frontline Battlecruiser? I don't know anything about tonnages above 120, and it only has 4 main missiles. But what do ya think? And keep in mind the new XVIIF has about 2K D/V and is 160 tons... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Lane Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 (edited) Fail, I've been firing my shots at point blank range, I'll fix this tomorrow. x4.017! Edited December 5, 2013 by Shadow Lane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartwo Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 Yeah... I just triple armored everything but the barrel I'll post the persist here, I want you guys to try to kill it.Here it is,https://www./?rns4vl2tch92q9w124 tons, 680 parts. Just by adding extra armor. It is now the most complex rock in the world.EDIT Oh god... I just added fuel to it. It now has more D/V than an XIV. But it has one problem...It's 666 parts.Seems easy enough:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astecarmyman Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 I am here, astecarryman wanna have a battle??Im still trying to build a capable craft that doesn't simply kill my computer D: (I dunno how to install hyperedit?)I do have some pretty high-tech VTOLS if thats what you want! (One of which is an extensively re-engineered and upgraded Nesferatu MkV)Go check out my channel ksp maniac to see two of my VTOLS. (The videos are shown with bad gameplay to fool enemies of the capabilities hehe)The re-engineered Nesferatu is still being worked upon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Lane Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I finally destroyed it. After all of these firings, I've learned something. It's not how powerful the missile is that matters, what matters is the distance you fire it from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Lane Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I tried a ram, but the speed of impact caused it to vaporize the body of the vessel and send the engines spinning off randomly, so I blunted it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And keep in mind the new XVIIF has about 2K D/V and is 160 tons...Yeah, it's definitely tougher than a standard drek. The only problem is kerbal's ****ty collision mechanics, the triple layer either works brilliantly or not at all, depends on the delta time frame.

Spartwo Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 Turns out the wilhelm is too powerful.I have to throttle to 1/3 to stop things phasing through,still enough to render a Drek useless in 5 hits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tegu Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 o.0 really, 4 pocket missiles is more than enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Tegu Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I usually hit em with a volley of 4, vapourises them every time (assuming no phasing glitches). It is possible to do it with a single missile to the seed part (halfway between the command pod and engines), this will snap it in half and then its just a case of disabling any secondary weapons still attached to the seed part if need be. I prefer the volley method cause its the most reliable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, this last one is easy to accomplish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Tegu Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 sometimes it would destroy all the innards, most of the time it did nothing. I can't figure out why, if i could figure out how to make it consistent.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
