Rotating Continuous Fire Rail Ship (Snowflake)

Description
A rotating ship design that fires rails continuously as it turns.


This ship requires Direct Control to function as intended in combat. Each side should be assigned a weapon group and fired when it faces the enemy. I recommend max rotation speed to spread damage over the entire hull and each shield.

The newest design requires 540 crew and can defeat multiple 17s. It has 2 added railguns as well as more PD and disruptors.

The strategy is to pull them in with tractor beams while rotating, which may require taking out some of their engines first. Once the enemy is close enough, the corners of the ship will flip the enemy around and expose their weak spots.

I'll be further optimising the design in the near future.
