Battleship Cronus (CV)

Description
My second attempt at a big CV. This is an attempt to recreate one of my ships from Avorion using Empyrion's blocks and builder tools.

The top of the ship is a separate detacheable SV that you can access from the bridge. The hanger has room for four pack-mules so you can easily transport loads of cargo around, with corresponding escape corridors so you don't get ejected into space when you're done parking the mules. Armor is pretty thick, 3-4 blocks of combat steel over the majority of the ship. Lots of interior lights and turrets to keep you safe from space pirates, all zoned with motion detectors to keep power usage minimized. Two main switches on the bridge control exterior turrets and thrusters so the ship doesn't burn through as much fuel when idling.

Has a large engine room in the rear, large hanger in the middle with a crew lounging area above to provide some nice views without compromising the hull with armored glass. In the front are hydroponics, sickbay, mess hall, crew and captains quarters, bridge, and ammo and cargo storage. In the very front of the ship is the ships core, in a specially secured and reinforced compartment.

Indeed, but you have much more fine control of blocks in Avorion than Empyrion. Great job though :)

Thanks! =) I didn't quite capture the aesthetics I wanted.. These are screenshots of the hull design in Avorion:

I didn't have the same options for slopes to create the same pleasing overall silhouette; but being able to run around and build out the interior of the ship has me very, very addicted to this game right now.. :steamhappy:

You have some amazing ship designs yourself! I especially like many of your SV designs, fantastic job.
