So.. what does Gen 1-3 armor look like?

So.. what does Gen 1-3 armor look like?

I think of it as

gen-1:Splatterings of plates here and there.

gen-2:Strips of armor branching from one point(EG:Vanguard)

gen-3:Armor branching from a low impact spine running along the ship.(EG:Bayonet)

gen-4:Armor shell branching from a high impact spine(EG:Drek mk14)

That's pretty much it Though 4th also isolates the fuel tanks from the spine to improve shock absorption. I technically class the Drek MK14 as 3rd gen armour but its got so much of it that its way more effective than the Gn-22

My armor goes:

gen-1: Armor on fuel tank

gen-2: armor on fuel tank, double connectors

gen-3: armor on center truss.

My lotus class cruiser would def be gen 4. with a double layer of armor in some parts.

Shall we see if it can overcome the might of a Chimera-class carrier?

[PIRATEONTHERUN]

Might I ask why so magnificent a craft carries such a light armament? I want another ship with a MAC cannon!

[Comrade Jenkens]

Minerman: The chimera is huge! it would crush this thing which is only 300 parts fully armed. The chimera is ~700

Pirateofhterun: I'm working on a larger ship whith a railgun.

I've almost finished a version with a small MAC! The subassembly feature is a godsend for this!
