Cylon Basestar Mk1

Description
Cylon Basestar 1/7 scale

The Basestar, or Baseship is the primary capital ship of the Cylons within the re-imagining of the science fiction mini-series and television series Battlestar Galactica (2004–2009).

Basestars physically resemble two Y-shaped sections joined at an axis and pointing in opposite directions. The Y-shaped sections are externally virtually identical and some of the functions that they house are redundant of each other. Each Y-shaped section contains a hangar deck at its center, accessible. Unlike a battlestar, a basestar's hangar is closed with a hatch when not in use. All decks are connected by the Core, which allows access to any deck via stairs. The Control Center or bridge is at the bottom of the core; the Control Center suite also includes the ship's sensor control computers.

The role and performance of the basestars indicate that they are not nearly as well armored or armed as battlestars. Although they possess formidable missile-based offensive weaponry, their defensive capabilities appear limited entirely to their Raiders. Basestars appear to have no kinetic-energy weapons equivalent to those found on Colonial warships.

I guess the launcher effect is ok. Just beaten 3 of these with my galactica. :)

I tried making this a playable ship hence the 1/7 scale. You just can't get enough thrust without modded thrusters if it was all heavy armor so I went with shields to compensate the HP difference. This also only uses the plasma turrets which have a similar effect as missile launchers and are much more low profile to maintain the overall shape properly.

Shields and energy weapons are u serious? Basestar should have only missile launchers and raiders and its armor was quite heavy.

Trying to make it heavy armor would just cause it to barely move but feel free to sub and try replacing the armor yourself and see how it works out.
