Avem Empire Starter Base

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

No faction would be complete without a base for resource gathering and shipbuilding, and that's exactly what this is! This base is meant to eventually replace the starting fortress (once enough materials have been gathered to afford it) and be used periodically around the map whenever a larger base is needed. This floating fortress features two tiers of docks and room enough for a couple small fleets to dock and repair. It has resource gathererers and a million resource storage, plus repair tetacles. The base features four CRAMs and four APS mounted in the corners, plus some simple AA guns and a single Skyfighter biplane for defense. I don't recommend taking it into combat, though.

Let me know if you've got any suggestions for another base or for how to make this one better. I still need to make a proper HQ and I expect it to be several times the size of this thing.

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!
