andrew123 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 I stopped doing that when it was locked. Also, You all should feel jelly. Look what i have. And it's in one of my ships.http://cdn.makeagif.com/media/7-12-2014/2LWSiH.gifTop speed: 13.2 m/s (in this ship)http://i.imgur.com/APJt0KM.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/Q2lzwGZ.jpgLooks like a naval reincarnation of our kraken drives. I also found out why my ship was marginally slower: too much extra liquid fuel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zekes Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Looks like a naval reincarnation of our kraken drives. I also found out why my ship was marginally slower: too much extra liquid fuel.It wasn't marginally slower, it was a whole 10% slower. and mine can carry four missiles, and it actually looks like a destroyer.

Do you want to see how many missiles I can cram on that flight deck?! (Plus, the speed was measured with two cruise missiles on my ship. Your ship already fired off its missiles in the images.)Plus, actual max speed is over 50 m/s. The flight deck could fit at least 8 1.5 m missiles on top of the current complement of two cruise missiles.Do you even know what LCS stands for?

So worth it. and love the ship daemon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonCaptrix Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 A someone who spent 2 months this spring building a 1 meter model of the Yamato, I must say that I love daemon's replica.That's pretty huge for a real life model.

Megalodon 720 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 How on earth do you guys get your guns to turn?! My guns won't reattach to the ship's hull and eventually fall off and can't get back up onto the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon 720 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) That's pretty huge for a real life model. Are there pics?No webcam here, The ship still needs another coat of paint on the Superstructure and deck.Not only that but it's in a shed where I keep most of my models and very little light gets in there other than the light from the little lamp I have. It's a lovely little place and very quiet and peaceful. Edited July 12, 2014 by Megalodon 720 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonCaptrix Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) BATTLE UPDATEWhat is this unarmoured crap?Aha! A real opponent!Things are about to heat up!Not much damage from the first shot, so take two more... at the same time!Kerbal drivers must be used to this by now. Explosions? Meh.Persistent Edited July 12, 2014 by daemonCaptrix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew123 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) Do you have any specific suggestions? Daemon already said it looked realistic (And she liked it), and making the angled surfaces for the front prow could kill the ship's combat effectiveness.The US Air Force is proud to present the ultimate deterrent force in the solar system: The ODIN.This deployed edition of the ODIN is a complete rebuild of the prototype, taking the lessons learned in the old edition to create one of the ultimate strike weapons on the planet. Each 8-ton impactor travels to the surface in less than 2 minutes, impacting at supersonic speeds with terminal guidance for pinpoint accuracy. The ODIN carries six kinetic impactors, and the station pulls double duty as my main space station.The station itself is meant to be used in conjunction with three telemetry satellites, which will be unveiled separately. All missiles and resources are reload able, with the station itself possessing four engines for orbital maneuvering and rcs for precision target acquisition.The SLV.Firing at an insurgent position.Impact vehicle hurtles towards the surface at a near linear trajectory at hypersonic velocities. The projectile still has plenty of maneuvering fuel.The station on standby duty.Javascript is disabled.

Otherwize, it's real hard to hurt those Ducks. But yea, the little tanks, I should have thought about a bit better. I might make a flamethrower, they seem to be effective bang for their weight's buck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your top armor is so thick i cant get through it with the smaller missiles on my light tanks, and by the time i get to the good weapons, you'll have killed all the ducks :/EDIT: HEY FLEET remember these colors?

I guess I sacrificed some performance for some longer range.Also, the ODIN is about to be tested against a naval combatant. The cruise missile is also being tested against your E class.

daemonCaptrix Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Oh wow... even metal plates don't survive ocean speeds in excess of around 110 m/s. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon 720 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Use wings on ocean vessels for speed, I think that's why the Poseidon didn't have any problems at 156m/s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonCaptrix Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Use wings on ocean vessels for speed, I think that's why the Poseidon didn't have any problems at 156m/s.Wings have only a fraction of the durability of metal plates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon 720 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) I still don't know exactly why my ekranoplan can reach those speeds without incident.Here's a picture of my gun, I can detach it fine an turn it properly but no matter what I do I can't get it to reattach. I'm going to build the HMS Belfast without turning guns instead.Do you guys think this is ok? Edited July 13, 2014 by sal_vager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zekes Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) Well, it's not getting any more part or thrust efficient, but it is more reliable. The turbine Mk III is 141 parts and acheives 4.4 m/s when powering an E-Class. But it is 90% reliable, stable, and doesn't create huge wads of torque, unlike the Mk I and II.I think by adding more wings, I can make it go faster. Or by having more SAS; that thing turns very slowly. Anyone know how to increase the thrust? Edited July 13, 2014 by zekes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
