Description
An original this time!

Decked out with guns. 4 size 2 harpoints, 6 size 1 hardpoints, 16 size 0,5 offensive harpoints and 8 size 0,5 PDC mounts. The size 0,5 mounts can be removed fairly easily if you wish for less guns.

Also note, that turret designs on the size 2 mounts needs to be placed in the turret builder to become sise 2. Just selecting them and applying a design makes it a size 1.5 design.


Features:
- Integrity field generators
- Flight recorder
- Small magenta framework block for easy conversion into transporter block
- Internal Smart Hull for easy customization
- 3 Docks
- 8 Torpedo Launchers

For full Stats and Costs, refer to the 5th image.

!Note!
This ship consists of mostly Iron. Convert to titanium and you get a much more maneuverable ship! You can even convert titanium hull into titanium armor and still have better handling than the base iron loadout!

Thank you! I will try to figure out how to do that! :steamhappy:

Hello

I'll admit I'm not sure how well this ship holds up when scaled up. But if you convert the smart hull, the two small cargo blocks and the frontmost crew quarter block I think it might have a decent amount of shield for its design.

If you want an even stronger ship, I can recommend converting the hull into armor. Though this is slightly more complicated. Simply put, make sure you have no colour selected in the colour menu, then individually select each hull block type and press select all, then select the corresponding armor block (ie blank hull -> armor, blank edge -> armor edge, etc) one block type at a time and press replace all. Ship will be less nimble, but much tougher when shields fail.

Hello there! I have a question about this ship. I'm finding it difficult to keep this ship on par with my other ships from your catalog. I've increased it's size (which seemed to work for all my other ships) but for some reason the shield and a few other things just aren't keeping up. I'm in Trinium, btw. Is there a way for me to get this ship to be viable mid game? Do I need to break it down and remake it or will I have to leave the design behind? Which makes me really sad, since you don't have a lot more of this kind of aesthetic other than a very select few of your other ships. (Which I am also using, since they are gorgeous.)

Yeah. I'm afraid I can't do anything about that, sorry. Still don't know what is causing that. I know you can get most ships showing if you repeatedly open the workshop template folder, ship folder and turret folder. Other than that, you'll need to find the design in the steam workshop folder in the steamlibrary and manually copy it into your avorion ship folder.

Hmm... I'm having those issues with newer ships too. Dunno what's causing it. I know it can still be found directly in the workshop folder in the steamlibrary, but that is an annoying workaround.

I don't think it's something I can do anything about tho, sorry.

Your ship is not loading in the ship build menu for me
