Description
The Capn's back!
=============
Apologies to all my subscribers & followers for the deletion of my entire SE workshop a while ago.
You'll be glad to know I'm back in the saddle though, with a whole heap of quality new content for you.
I hope you enjoy it - and please be patient while I get it all published, as it's likely going to take a while.

Welcome to EMGC
===============
EMGC is the Enthusiastic Malleable Goods Condominium, a newly formed subsidiary of SAVTec Industries.
Named in honour of a certain Earth-based Software House, EMGC has but a single goal; to rebuild, rebalance & improve upon the ships of the KSH fleet, making them more practical, useful and fun in-game, while still retaining the original KSH style.

EMGC will eventually comprise 3 ranges of ships; the Respawn & Cargo ships, the Easy Start ships and the Campaign ships.

EMGC / SAVTec Build Mantra
=======================
100% vanilla
Survival, Exploration, Projector and 1st person friendly
Thruster Damage safe
No Scripts, Pistons or Rotors unless otherwise stated
Total ship-wide conveyor integration - always!

Where possible, all EMGC & SAVTec ships feature...
-Standardised air-tight docking rings with cargo transfer
-Pre-configured Button Panels & command station / cockpit hotbars
-Clean control panel with all items named, grouped & hidden where appropriate.
-All control panel items prefixed with the name of the ship for easy identification.
-Cameras forward & aft, docking cameras port & starboard, additional cameras as required.

The K-10 Advanced Military Transporter
==============================
The 10th in my EMGC Cargo Ships series and the largest of the fleet, the K-10 has proven by far the most difficult to redesign.

I've been through about 6 itterations of this ship to arrive at what you see here, hence it's taken me a while to get it on the workshop.

The original Military Transporter, while a formidable ship to fight, suffered from what I consider a severe lack of weaponry for a ship its size. The hangar bay couldn't be pressurised and the interior was a veritable maze of identical-looking corridors that a)took up far more room than they needed to, b)were unnecessarily difficult to look at / navigate and c)just didn't make much sense.
The ship also had some pretty glaring holes in its defences that were practically an open invite to wayward engineers with grinders!

I've rectified all these problems and more, while both doubling the overall armour thickness and giving the ship a more streamlined & mean look.

Oh, and yes, it has windows now too. Not such a good thing in a warship you may think but they're pretty inconspicuous & well protected - and everyone likes a nice view after all!

The K-10 has far too many features to list them all in this description, so I'll post them on the discussions pages instead.

Megazoid & Gigazoid power!!
=======================
Combine all 3 EMGC Military ships - the K-8, K-9 and K-10 to form the K-M Megazoid! 4 ships in one!
Dock 2 K-M Megazoids together using the large stern docking rings and you've got yourself a K-G Gigazoid! That's 8 large ships - 24 Missile Turrets, 50 Gattling Turrets and 88 Interior Turrets for point defence!
Or just use it on its own... or use it to tow the K-7 Advanced Mining Hauler - the two ships use the same large docking rings!
For more info see the Features List on the discussion pages.

Next in the EMGC Cargo Ship Series
============================
With all 9 Cargo Ships now done, it's time to move on to the Respawn Ships.
Next on the list (though actually published before the K-10) is...
The KR-L Advanced Atmospheric Lander

A huge thankyou to the mod's creator, Glenn G! Please show him your appreciation with a rate & favourite!

Feedback
========
Comments / questions / suggestions / constructive criticism all very welcome.
I've even been known to do the odd request-build from time to time, so if you have an idea, drop me a line. If I like it I may build it.

Ok

@CharlieDingus...
I haven't done any gravity testing with this ship at all.
It *might* be possible to land it on a moon but it wasn't exactly designed with that in mind... the thrusters may not be powerful enough to slow the ship down in time.
I'll do some tests.
In the meantime you could just try it & see. Use a Creative world so you can paste the ship back in if it crashes.
Let me know your findings if you try it.

Can this land on vanilla moons?
cptsavarus  [author] 17 Feb, 2018 @ 4:31am 
Well you could easily swap out the merge blocks for armour if you wanted... or do you mean as in blend all 4 ships together & make them look like they were designed as one ship?
alos 16 Feb, 2018 @ 3:59pm 
Instead of three detachable ships, I'm thinking of a military dreadnought that has the three permantly attached with armor blocks.
cptsavarus  [author] 16 Feb, 2018 @ 2:59pm 
More permanently merged?
I'm not sure I follow your meaning there.

Sounds like you're talking about a whole new ship with a detachable module - like a mothership & drop-ship kind of arrangement. (?)

Please, explain your idea in detail. The better you describe it the easier it'll be for me to picture it in my head.

I know its outside simply improving kswh builds, i was hoping you could add one that is "more permanently" merged
alos 16 Feb, 2018 @ 2:46pm 
Yea ik

@Alos... you can create them easily yourself using the ships in my workshop. The idea is that all my EMGC ships can be merged together in various ways to form all kinds of strange new mega-ships. There are quite literally thousands of possible combinations you can make with these ships - The screenshots are just one simple example to show how the concept works.

For your reference though, the 3 ships in screenshot 8 are...
-This one (the K-10)
-The K-8 Advanced Military Escort (the smaller one on the front)
-The K-9 Advanced Military Minelayer (The two larger ships on the sides)

Screenshot 9 is exactly the same 3 ships - just there are twice as many of them in the combo. 2 K-10's docked stern-to-stern, each with a K-8 docked to its bow and 2 K-9's docked to its sides. The only difference is that the 4 K-9's are docked the opposite way around

Simples!

Can you upload the merged versions from pics 8 and 9?
