Description : My naming convention has 8 slot ships as a Battlecruiser. Stats are using 100% crew so not overboosted. Ship is meant to be a mid-late game design that offers speed, cargo, and utility(lots of framework space) for cracking stations, trading without getting too expensive to operate It hovers around the area of needing a general or not depending on what the framework is turned into. Built using titanium as it's easy to acquire and easy to upgrade to Trinium/Xaniom as needed. Can even work within the core if your weapons are good enough.

Lore: Having come off with the cost and shortfalls of speed and manouverability of the battleships of the Imperium, the WFL came up with a cheaper and faster alternative while offering a lot of the utility and firepower of a battleship. The Preeminence was designed with more sophisticated technology making it more expensive to build putting it in line with cheaper Battleships. The trade off for a cheaper running cost and higher utility made it the first true Capital Ship of the WFL.

Hey Blackhorse_Six, I flight, and use, and fight in all of these ships. They're ships I used in single player first before cleaning up a little for the workshop.

I try not to put too many small pieces that blow off on them ect. So there's testing and a bit of forethought in their design to be actually useable.

This ship took me to the center of the galaxy after converting it to Xaniom, and using some good railguns. Had to make a new ship to beat the Xsotan Guardian though.

I subscribed to this one with an eye towards some co-op play. Currently flying a 4/5 slot destroyer I picked-up last year ... My only question to ANYONE who designs a ship like this is "Can it Fight and can it Survive? ... Has this design been tested "in Combat" ?

It becomes an issue wrestling with maneuverability as you get ships larger. It's made of Titanium so Modify Ship > Trinium or Xaniom or even Avorion will make it a lot lighter. Flys more like a battleship if you convert it to Ogonite.

looks very cool ! but flys like a big BIG rock....

Thanks Slick Rick. I actually have really wanted to make a heavy cruiser to fill that gap. It's been a design floating in my head I mean to add at some point.

In the early-mid game right now, I have been using your designs religiously, and I think a kind of 'heavy cruiser' mid-way between this and your WFL Light Cruisers would be simply superb. Just a suggestion, thanks for the awesome designs. You have my endless gratitude, incompetent builder that I am.

Appreciate it Thraun. Got some new line of ships in works plus 2 last ships in this line eventually to knock out.

nice job, really like the fleet you have made so far, cant wait to see what else your gonna do.

Yeah Kriegsschmied. It's the smaller ships in the fleet. You can see them in my workshop they're uploaded as well.

Straight design, love it :]
Are the other ships in the comparison picture from you too?
