Spartwo Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) You made your dry dock a carrier, didn't youI already did that,It was disappointing.No I built something with a hanger three times the volume.1000 ton carrying capacity(and an extra 1000 for utilities).Room for 2 Cambuks,6 Mjolnirs,A pandora class carrier(maybe 2),100 Broadswords,or to put it better Every Spiritwolf Ship Ever Produced.And that's just in the main hanger,there are two SOK sized side bays which are to house the utilities such as.Retrieval craft.Work bots.Return vehicles.And a variety of MMUs.The ship also contains crew areas with enough room to house the crew of any ships on board.And all for a reasonable>upside down ?< part count,estimated to be around 3k.It weighs over 4 thousand tons empty.The only thing stopping me from making it bigger was the SPH's height,any wider would have been disproportionate.To put it best.http://i.imgur.com/aaRv5Ff.jpgEDIT:Sorry Zekes I got distracted.Finding that Mechjeb unit is going to be like finding a needle in a farm.

zekes Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 It's fine.... but i just cant see the point of that carrier. It's just a big wing in space. wouldn't it be more practical to have a fleet that flew with refueling and repair ships around them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a big wing in space. wouldn't it be more practical to have a fleet that flew with refueling and repair ships around them?.....Who said anything about practicality?EDIT:Coming from someone who turned a fighter into a cruiser by accident.EDITEDIT:Actually It might be,as ships go up in mass less is dedicated to not blowing up.If you compare a Cambuk to a Mjolnir,Cambuks only weigh 50 tons more but are able to carry 3 times as much due to a lesser amount of mass being needed to turn,sustain power,or even stay in one piece.This effect should be exponential.25% Carrying capacity compared to the 15% of a Mjolnir means it may actually be more practical(and insanely cool),not factoring in that all those refueling ships require their own escorts,their own engines,control,sas,power.This results ,most likely,in a fleet weighing more than a supercarrier carrying the ships.Also keep in mind that the fleet won't arrive at the same place,they'll be kilometers apart from one another(as shown by follower mod) Edited April 16, 2014 by Spartwo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew123 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) I feel glad I own a gtx 760. Not the rather unusual fx 6300 in my current mobo... weaker than my previous laptop i7.Should I go for 4k... I have the opportunity to get this for 700 dollars exact... with the 8-10 percent california tax added on top of that. http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-28-Inch-Definition-Monitor-U28D590D/dp/B00IEZGWI2Another project is the exterminatus cannon I am trying to improve on board a classified vessel of mine, which may be very useful for precision planetary assaults while I am improving my destroyer...Slight kraken power.

War Eagle 1 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Y'all are luck. I have a ton of papers to do and finals are in a little over two weeks. If I do play it is only enough time to fly around in an Aquila VTOL for fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartwo Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 I used a carrier once,they're very powerful when on the offence.* Carriers can not have their own offense weapons (fighter are the weapons DUH)I will take this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

War Eagle 1 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) Im also thinking about adding an ability to steal a fighter if its manned but I ll have to really think about that oneEdit: on second though, I can't really think of how to do that in a fair way so no stealing craft Edited April 16, 2014 by War Eagle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zekes Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Well, this one will be close, but I used my last shredder missile on Diaspora... but i still have the HV missiles on both ships. Unfortunately those are able to cripple but not kill, however part of that crippling includes making the SRBs fall off, which means I can then use it to finish the last shop off....PERSIST https://www./?p23my1t62y30tn8<starburst> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always a draw This battle taught me my missiles are UBER awesome, and I no longer must fear the bayonet as much as before. but that Javelin- thingy was scary effective, you obliterated my first ship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
