Thanatos Mk I (CV) RVS 12

We at RasterOps Ventures would like to thank itdocman Engineering for their magnificent Xiphos design. Please visit their mod page to see, "Rate" and download the original design, if only in Creative mode to compare our two designs.

This design has been updated and is available as the Thanatos Mk II. A top layer of armor was added on the Mk II. This reduces or eliminates splash damage that would otherwise reach the interior of the ship. We highly recommend building the Mk II.

RasterOps Ventures first foray into capital ship design is a significantly remodeled Xiphos, the RVS 12 Thanatos Mk I. The biggest problem we faced was designing within the constraints of the existing hull. (Our engineers wanted more space.) This meant removing a few walls, utilizing some hidden space and removing some O2 and Fuel tanks. Despite a slight increase in size and weight, the Thanatos Mk I remains as agile as the Xiphos.

Our primary goals were to increase the size of the hangers, add a second constructor, add a proper galley, increase the number of planters and add living quarters. The hangers are now large enough to accommodate our RVS 04 Hazzard Mk III, if only just. There are now two main decks and the bridge. The lower deck provides access to the ground entrance, the constructors, a small medical bay and the warp drive. The upper deck includes the Galley, Agronomics and access to the two forward decks, which include the living quarters. The Galley now includes tables with a spectacular view of the warp drive. There are now two complete plant sections for a total of 18 planters.

Finally, the core was moved forward. This means that should it be destroyed, hopefully the rest of the ship and all that valuable loot will not be lost.

The blueprint may be yours for a mere 1799 credits. ;)
