Yes, sadly upon closer inspection of Pherb, all the fuel and engines had been torn out, leaving a smashed hull. But the missiles were intact.

However, Phineas took revenge for the loss of her sister ship; the Crakensbane was knocked out, leaving her a wreck. Her armor is breached, main weaponry gone, fuel tanks gone, and crew flung out into the darkness of space. Their lives were spared, you can send a rescue ship after the battle to pick them up, if their life support holds out long enough...

EDIT I am confused though, looking at your photos of the battle, Pherb doesn't look that bad, but when i got it, it was totally wrecked... huh. :P

Lining up for a shot:

Main fuel tanks are completely gone; one more shot would have torn the ship in twain down the center.

Phineas used all her main SRBs, she had to return to Pherb to pick up her weaponry.

Successful re-arming. Pherb is in the distance; sisters to the end.

OK what range do you fire I-Beams so that they don't phase through armor

haha, excellent question. No idea, i fire most of the time 100-400m, that seems to work well with the new missiles i have.

cool, what tonnage and max ships do you want to have? And I'll let you place and choose location first if I can go first.

Gemme 2 of your ships in the 20-40 ton range.

My ship is orbiting mun if you got my persist i uploaded.

The reason ships look fine at the end of one person's turn but then they're exploded in a million pieces when the next person opens the save is due to physics not being present during the time you're loading up the ship to inspect it. This allows detached parts that were stuck inside the ship to clip through and float freely into space.

Trident attacks Katana

Katana left Nautilus dead in the water, so her sister ship shot back.

Now witness the power of this fully armed and operational battle cruiser!

Lead strikes steel as a single volley from Trident's main gun shatters the glass cannon, Katana.

Critical hit! (code for lucky shot :P)

Trident withdrew to the relative safety of low Duna orbit.

Alright, time to take one of my Recon Corvettes out for a spin... ;P Also, I've noticed that timewarp and physics have stuff break down in slo-mo occasionally. Plus, there's always that one rogue I-beam that punctures the armor...

Dont y'all hate it when a great idea gets in your head but you can't do a thing about it until much later the next day.

Last night I though of a new weapon system that can reck just about any opponent. Darn shame I have to wait till after class today to build and test it

Oh and you can thank Scpitkitt3h for giving me this idea for the new devastating system that I like to call "Firefall"

War eagle, exactly the same, testing out my new anti armor and ship missile.

Tbh, not only that but a whole fleet! I dont have a single functional ship yet!

Check out my first post on page one. I have a few ships for donation and you can choose one

My turn...

In revenge for the crippling attack on the Krakensbane, Recon Corvette Beta Lead attacks USSZS Phineas.

(This last shot bounced off, doing a little impact damage, but not as much overall compared to the first 3.)

Seeing the Phineas is partially disabled, Beta Leader proceeds to join Beta 3 on the surface and wait for a plan to reload their launch tubes... (aka scavenging wrecked ships if there's time...)

I'm guessing it involves lots and lots of projectiles being spammed? :D

Nothing to do with that,some ships become 'locked' in place.Not moving physically but the velocity meter showing up the correct speed.Time warping gets the ship moving....without the locked part,Shearing it apart.

...the best lightest i've got is a 54 ton.

What about those frigates you threw together?

"Firefall"

This makes me assume it's burning through the hull with sepratrons.

Nah, i plan to basically reinvent the wheel, so no copying :)

Last time someone said that they never showed(or did)anything.*Cough*Shadow Lane*cough*

aah, those monstrosities. Powered by Ions and being way over complex (360 parts for only 10 tons)...

but i am gonna make a simpler one soon. all in good time, it takes a while to rebuild a navy.

BATTLE UPDATE

USSZS Thresher went for another Battleship.

aBeCstG.jpg

First hit on StrangeKerb knocked off some of the forward armor panes.

rccIw2A.jpg

Second hit knocked out power to the upper lights, but otherwize did little.

HIl6DMc.jpg

Third round caused an explosion in Thresher, destroying itself. Like I said, still working out the bugs.

5D2TdGy.png

However, the fourth and fifth missiles caused substantial damage, including destroying the main core of the ship (which means that it is dead by game rules)

Proof there is no main part left:

QsoP7pm.png

Thresher went up to an ultra high orbit, as she was low on weaponry.

p4yK4Lj.png

Shattered hulk of StrangeKerb. RIP to the three crew in the cockpit, but it appears the rest of the crew is still alive, and will need rescue at the end of the battle.

Nice shot there... time for some ammo scav'ing. Also, I did put probe cores in my Corvettes, to act as emergency backup AI in case of... pilot incapacitation.
