Description
InfernoGuard proudly presents the Mermaid Escort Frigate, a support vessel that boasts large capacities for storage, front-line assembly, and jump distance. The Mermaid Escort Frigate was designed for the back lines as a armed cargo vessel, allowing goods and supplies to push through contested, percarious, or otherwise non-traditional space lanes. The Mermaid is more than capable of defending itself with its full armor sleeve and multiple arrays of gatling and missile turrets, as well as additional point defense lines. The Mermaid includes both a flight bridge perched at the top of the vessel and a combat bridge tucked away in the inner-most core of the ship, both of which are oxygen friendly. The Mermaid is also designed with easy maintenance in mind, as every component of the ship is reachable through the access of the ships accessways and main two corridors. The Mermaid weighs in at almost 6,125,000 Kilograms and is capable of storing up to (math required) in its cargo containers, but the vessel is also capable of manufacturing items because of the many assemblers onboard. The connectors along the main body of the vessel are also color coordinated and named appropriately as to make docking and undocking easier. The Mermaid Escort Frigate includes...

: WARNING :
It is not advised that you should attempt to drive the Mermaid Escort Frigate into a celestial body's gravity well just because it has 4 large hydrogen thrusters facing downward, nor should you throw it against a sizable enemy base and expect it to win because it is big and has guns, as I have had similar complaints in the past.

It's so the oxygen produced from the gas generators don't go to waste when making hydrogen. Unfortunately it's not as simple as that mechanically as the generators will run until ALL tanks are full so waste will be inevitable. Either way, bonus oxygen storage increases travel endurance with the generators off, yada yada yada, it's also how the ship is designed.

I can deal with the lose of a port. It is unimportant in a fight. It can be fixed up later. I put it in the front so I can avoid the problem of having to fit it into the sides where it normally is.

Good looking ship, but why would you put the entry point in the front of the ship where it is most likely the first point of contact.

Lol, I definitely thought sword when the other thought occurred as well.

It makes me feel better to compare the shape to more that of a sword or a hammer than that of a phallic object. The balls are far too up the shaft.

Nothing more intimidating than when the shadow of a flying phallus falls across your base :p I like the design in all honesty, but I had to reference the shape for posterity :)

Looks great man, really like your idea of how you used double corner lights to blend the end of the corridor sections!
