Assault Carrier MSI Hraesvalgr

DESCRIPTION
The Hraesvalgr is a paramilitary assault carrier built by the Mining Security and Insurance Company. Piracy, and by extension insurance and security companies, were booming together with the space mining industry. Mining companies made regular payments to large pirate factions to ensure safe passage. The Mining Security and Insurance Company was formed by the combined efforts and later the amalgamation of several mining, security, and insurance mega corporations. It boasted a paramilitary force rivalling some of the most powerful armadas. The flagship of this force was the MSI Hraesvalgr, which took 4 years to construct at the Poanage Arsenal. A fast moving fortress with tremendous firepower, the Hraesvalgr was capable of annihilating pirate fleets and bases single-handedly.

AUTHORS NOTES
The ship was inspired by Halo’s scorpion tank for the overall shape. Using four “thruster packs”, the ship can get lots of clearance for both forward and backward thrusters. We started building as soon as we left earth with our first ship, the Prometheus PEV. It was installed with nanobot build and repair for this project. We found a pure ice asteroid and used that as a base for refining and construction. The entire build took roughly 600 hours, with the aim of pushing the limits of size without compromising functionality and performance.
- If you intend to use this ship for actual PvP you may need to rig the insides with a lot of interior turrets.
- To help with performance I’ve minimised the usage of lighting. Go ham on lighting if your PC is a beast.
- While using SEtoolbox, accidentally deleted the welding platform in the hangar and never bothered to rebuild it.
- There was originally a homing missile system behind the missile covers at the front but the merge blocks were too laggy so it was removed. I recommend adding a weaponcore missile system there instead.
