LIM Carthage | Escort Frigate | Survival Ready

The Carthage from Lagrange Interplanetary Motorworks is geared towards being an entry-level starship for smaller factions or a flagship for large militias, and being officially used in militaries around Human space as a patrol frigate for areas of high traffic with being able to field a multitude of shuttles and fighters from its hangar and fend off any threats from non-dedicated warships without the need for backup.

In doing this it has multiple bathrooms, 6 crew beds and 1 captain's quarters, a large shuttle bay capable of holding 2 Avidans or an array of space and atmospheric fighters - though only one Avidan can be linked to the cargo grid at one time. This vessel also includes a dedicated medical bay, a server room, and a battle bridge located in the ventilation shafts underneath the habitation modules!


I made this ship out of longing for the RSI Galaxy in Star Citizen, using my love for that ship as inspiration to get back into ship building in Space Engineers. The rear-entranced hangar has been sitting in my design world for almost a year and I finally decided to spruce it up with new blocks and turn it into a fully-fledged ship!

There are buttons all around the place under panels to turn off lights, turn off vents, or manually fire the railguns! There are also 2 primary-deck emergency escape tubes that double as atmospheric entry points when landed, and a top deck emergency escape that goes out either side of the ship, which is easily accessible from the habitation modules and anywhere in the front of the ship.

A big caveat to this ship is that - due to its size - I chose not to include side or dorsal connectors/docking rings, as they hindered the aesthetics and functionality too heavily. I did include one outward connector underneath the ship just to be able to access the grid between ships and stations so you aren't forced to manually lug around cargo.
