HMLS Dauntless

Here's the first post of the third round of Avem Empire airships! I'll be doubling my fleet size, so make sure to check out all the other designs.

The newly renamed Dauntless is an airship built in a bit of an older style. She uses a hexagonal main gun layout which was only seen in a couple early dreadnoughts historically, and a lot of the rest of the armament is in the form of casemates with limited fields of fire. Dauntless is the definition of gun spam, though. Her main guns are 10rpm 300mm, and she's got a total of 32x 225mm broadside guns, half on each side and half firing at 15rpm and half firing at 30rpm. She also has a pair of 60mm "Silent Guardian" CIWS on each side. There are also some simple AA guns topside.

She uses breadboard AI for attitude control and roll-to-target, as well as multiple mainframes for separate target prioritization. Like every other airship in the fleet, she can go more than 50m/s and has a cruise speed set at 40m/s. She's got a few repair bots and repair tentacles and material storage to go with it. She uses fuel engines for power.

I have to give credit to 𝕰 𝖝 𝖎 𝖘 𝖙 𝖊 𝖓 𝖈 𝖊 for taking these screenshots for me. He did a phenomenal job with it. Also keep in mind that the colors and reflections and overall appearance of my airships will vary significantly based on your graphics settings, so feel free to mess with your settings and the paint colors until you get them to look how you like.

Also, feel free to join the United Builders Discord! We'll sometimes have weekly FtD events (adventure, campaign, or designer) and the community is great. It's also where I share a lot of my WIP pictures, so if you want to see more of my work you can find it there. Here's the invite: https://discord.gg/NdBpnFM8vF Just read the rules and send a message in #foyer and we'll let you into the rest of the server.

Make sure to check out some of my other designs, too!
