Battlestar Galactica Raptor with Warp

Description
New version out for Empyrion Alpha 10! Check it out here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1806714153

This is a multi-purpose small vessel (SV) with a design inspired by the Raptor from the reimagined Battlestar Galactica series. The Raptor is surprisingly manueverable for its size, and has the following features:

-SV warp drive (15 LY jump range)
-Size Class 1 [0.78]
-Pressurized passenger compartment with 2x passenger seats
-8x weapon hardpoints (4 tightly grouped below the cockpit, with another 4 pylons on the stub wings)
-10x double-size cargo boxes
-2x fridges
-1x SV constructor
-Armor locker
-POI detector
-All frame elements are hardened steel
-Spotlights, running lights, and landing lights controlled with signals
-Motion-activated doors and interior lights

The blueprint unlocks at level 12, and does NOT come with weapons by default (that way you can choose what weapons you want!)

Please rate and comment on this design. I'd love to hear your feedback!

I created a new version for Alpha 10. The link is in the description above!

Thanks @Lord Maximus! I haven't played Empyrion for a while and I think I need to update this ship design. Do you have any suggestions that should be implemented?

Ok Force; You built one hell of a ship. I have had mine for a week already and have downed 43 drones and 7 troop ships and assaulted a ton of poi's. But what nice is the damage this thing can take. The worst has been, lost the main engines and the top of the crew compartment and the team still made it home from the moon, granted they had to wear their helmets the whole trip.

This is a great ship, its fast and handles great. I have mine configured with 4 nose Gats and 1 under each wing along with rockets.

Thanks for a great ship.

Glad you are enjoying it @Adalerk ... there are way more storage boxes that you can access from the ship menu. 10x double storage boxes!

Great work indeed!! It has the outstanding design, utility, and immersion! :steamhappy:


- The "running lights" system is awesome! Those blue lights blinking every 3 seconds really add immersion.
- The room has whatever you might need in SP. It provides easy access to all the storage boxes and cockpit too! On top of that, you can use it to mine deposits with your drone on harsh planets.

@Fish the 4 indents right below the cockpit are for weapon mounts. There are 4 more under the pylons on the wings. You can refer to the screenshots for placement. I find missiles are good in the under-cockpit mount points, due to low dispersion.

Looks like a great BP. Thank you.

Any need to remove blocks for weapons, or just flush mount to the surface?

True she is Eunique not gonna argue with that but would be a really big class size of ship to make if the game will allow it and peoples rigs can handle it

I've seen two Galactica designs so far, and both were fun to fly and use, but Pegasus has the unique 8-engine setup in the back. It would be perfect for the XL-sized engines.
