Description
No mods. Survival Capable (pre-filled turrets, no conveyors)

Big thanks to captainfructose and Dswank for the videos!



******LEVELING TRICK******
If you guys want an easy way to make any building level, try this.

1) Paste an armor block halfway into the ground (it should be level with gravity automatically)
2) Make a tower about 7-8 blocks high
3) Grab your blueprint, hit control V, but do not click to paste yet
4) Push the blueprint into the armor block tower and manipulate it until it is aligned the same way, then you can put it in the ground perfectly upright (you may want to press B to make manipulation easier)

Hope that helps

Description:

Here is a large citadel for use on earth-like planets. I've included comparison shots with the Castellum Stronghold Base and Military Fort for size reference.

Features:
- Blast door reinforced walls
- Full interior with stairs that connect from top to bottom.
- Three levels of outer terraces which can be accessed from inside.
- 4 gatling, 4 missile, and 3 interior turrets. (Not conveyored but pre-filled with ammo)
- 1 large sensor activated vehicle gate and 6 personnel entrances on the first floor.


NOTICE:
I have extended the foundation of the outside walls FURTHER THAN NECESSARY (picture 31) so that this citadel can be pasted on moderately uneven ground and still be flush with the surface without any gaps. I designed it to be pasted into the ground as shown in the first pictures with the front gate just above the ground surface.




Comments are welcomed, enjoy!

Hi BlackArmor,

I realized that my request may have been unclear before, so I wanted to circle back to clarify that our intention is to make a few changes to the grid in order to fit with our mod pack, such as adding a beacon or changing the power/weapons loadout, which will require a reupload. We've provided a link to your mod along with your name and full credit for the design on the page: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2439923690 .

I apologize if my original request was unclear; please let us know if you'd like us to stop using it.

Yeah go ahead

This is absolutely amazing!

I am a server admin and would love to include this (likely with some modifications for our server) as a new challenge for players to attack. Would you be fine with us adding it to players can do battle with it?

I didn't want to see the pipes :)

that is not a complaint, I am just curious.. I did modify it and added conveyors to all the guns but somehow lost that and the rest of the BP's I made. :steamsad:

@BlackArmor I like the fortress but why didn't you connect the turrets to a conveyor system so they would load automatically. As it is, I have to fly over and fill all manually or swap out that conveyor with a cargo container and put ammo in there..
