I've changed this ship just a little bit to the new version with CPU, More containers and Shield

I built one of these, put in some T4 CPUs and a Shield Generator (suspended from the ceiling in the back of the hanger bay, it actually looks rather nice like part of the machinery) and it does pretty well against POIs still. Has some trouble with shielded ones because it lacks planet surface firepower but persistance pays. It's also a really good mobile base for the clearing out of structures afterwards.
A bonus is it's hanger has more than enough room to pack a couple of Ballistas for dealing with some of those tougher shielded targets.

i ended up doing a rehab on this ship a very extensive one at that (full interior strip major exterior rehab ) i plan on releasing it when 12 hits with your blessing only battle tested and very updated i must say i impressed myself or send you the file to look at
BatteryAcids 21 May, 2020 @ 10:12am 
I'd love to see what creation you'd pump out on that front. :)

Thank you Nixx, paradine, and BatteryAcids! I really do want to update this ship at some time. I just have a big back log of other projects at the time. I am wanting to get a lot of creations updated if possible, but at this time I am waiting for A12 to go live (non-experimental). This ship has the issue of coming out before shields existed in the game and is very tight on space which could make it challenging. lol. I am sure there is a way with some modding. Thanks again all!

Hope to see PSV/SAV/POI based CV sometime soon again! <3
paradine 7 May, 2020 @ 6:31am 
Nice design may I use it and major mod it for the workshop for 12 ?
Nixx 11 Mar, 2020 @ 2:15pm 
Hello. Good work!
But... Can you upgrade it? There is CPU issue and no place for shield...
jrandall  [author] 30 Jan, 2020 @ 6:53am 
Thank you The Haney!

Fantastic design and exactly what I'm looking for to engage POI's in a potentially hot PvP area. Ditto on the shield gen replacing a farm plot, and I had to mcgyver in the appropriate CPU upgrades (tried to make it T3 but it really needs to be T4 to keep it properly badass).
jrandall  [author] 18 Oct, 2019 @ 2:58pm 
Thank you Trym and charlie.razor! @Trym, sorry on the delayed response. I must have missed it. And thank you! @charlie.razor, It was a fun design, but actually the 3rd attempt I made at a POI type ship. lol. I didn't put to much time in the others thou. Thanks again!

Jrandall, just wanted you to know that this CV fit the bill perfectly of what I needed. I had to however remove one of the 3by3 plots of farms to drop a field generator, and dress up the area with some piping to make it legit. However it fits XCaliber's Ka-Bar Heavy Assault, and a modified TeeWRX-82 M-153C Tyche Industries SV (I had to cut the length down and remove a bunch of frill to get the scale down to levels accepted for Multiplayer modes), It's very difficult to find a CV big enough to fit monster HVs that are made for solo, but are ALSO solo play designed, and I feel the Sphinx really hits the mark. Just big enough to be roomy, and let me do what I need to do, but not so huge I feel lonely. Thanks!
Trym 25 Sep, 2019 @ 3:10pm 
I tested it on a couple of POIs and it just wrecked them :) Thank you. good ship, again.
jrandall  [author] 25 Sep, 2019 @ 8:22am 
Thank you Trym! Unfortunately this ship was built before shields were added to the game so I don't have a stock location to add one. So, I think I would look to replacing some farm plots with a shield and maybe make some mods so it can fit right. Also, it may or may not need another generator because of the shield. I am not sure on that one. As in weapons and turrets shooting POI's the only ones that work on planets are the 6 Cannon, 6 Minigun, and 8 sentry guns, all automatic. The other weapons will not fire on planets, only in space. I hope that helps. Thanks again!
Trym 25 Sep, 2019 @ 4:05am 
I removed 9 plant plots, Sorted. Have other ships we plant vegetables.
Trym 25 Sep, 2019 @ 3:21am 
Hi, just made this :) have you made a reserved place tor a shield as usual? Want to place one.
And is it possible to target things with the guns? or all on auto?
lazersgm 11 Jul, 2019 @ 4:24pm 
great ship to just drop in front of a poi even on hard. i put a T2 shield in it and nothing stops it.
xxxVaderxxx 18 Jun, 2019 @ 3:17pm 
Awesome ship
:steamhappy:

So, I have been using this for awhile now in my SP Survival game. While I have the Carapace as well, I find the Sphinx to be all around more useful and functional. I have made a few mods to accommodate my style and ease of ingress/egress, nothing that disrupts the look/feel/use. This is the rightful progression from Spanj's Short-Hauler 2 (SH-02). Excellent CV and battle tested!
jrandall  [author] 28 Apr, 2019 @ 1:51pm 
Thanks Raptor! lol. Yeah, kinda small :) I love the idea of yours :) Thanks again!
Arkixul 28 Apr, 2019 @ 1:17pm 
jrandall i think this is a bit small to handle a POI i mean if my CV(Crusader) is too small then this has to be too small. LOL. you got clone chambers right? I still like this ship. I wonder if it would fit in my CV especially since XCaliber said we could have the rest of the challenge in my CV
jrandall  [author] 23 Apr, 2019 @ 5:13am 
Thank you Wh1t3_Gh0$t and VRMan3D :)
VRMan3D 22 Apr, 2019 @ 8:16pm 
I really love this one. Well done. It kind of completely changed the game for me haha. I used to fly wide of enemy POIs with the occasional big planned attack. Now I just pull up, blast the gennys and take everything lol.
Very functional layout. The only real change I made was to make the elevator lead all the way straight down with a door to the ground for quick operations.
Wh1t3_Gh0st 20 Apr, 2019 @ 12:46pm 
(Tongue Click) Nice. :cozypoechris:
jrandall  [author] 20 Apr, 2019 @ 5:27am 
Thank you very much Badomen555 and Jeffman12 :)
Jeffman12 20 Apr, 2019 @ 12:34am 
Damn, dude. You keep releasing some of the best ships on steam.
Badomen555 19 Apr, 2019 @ 7:08pm 
Sleek design inside and out. Nice work.
jrandall  [author] 19 Apr, 2019 @ 6:22am 
Thank you Blacklight, Grandpa's Gaming, morbius22003, and Las! This was a fun one to build (and honestly the 3rd attempt) at coming up with a design for Xcalibers Challenge. Thank you all again!
Las 19 Apr, 2019 @ 4:26am 
Awesome! Bravo!
morbius22003 19 Apr, 2019 @ 12:22am 
Wow!! This looks awesome!!! Will give a run!
[SPH]Grandpa's Gaming [USA] 18 Apr, 2019 @ 6:58pm 
looking forward to this! Thanks for all your great builds!
Blacklight 18 Apr, 2019 @ 6:49pm 
Dude , amazing work as always! I love the ones created around filling specific roles and needs like this one. For POI assaults this design is fantastic and impressive looking!
jrandall  [author] 18 Apr, 2019 @ 7:29am 
Thank you very much Hagar du Nord :)
Hagar du Nord 18 Apr, 2019 @ 6:28am 
Travail de professionnel ,comme d'habitude,Félicitations!!
jrandall  [author] 17 Apr, 2019 @ 6:29pm 
Thank you Toei Rei and Quickdraw6! @Toei Rei, I was just curious on what you changed? Thanks again!
Quickdraw6 17 Apr, 2019 @ 5:06pm 
This is a fortress with engines strapped to it. I love it.
Toei Rei 17 Apr, 2019 @ 12:52pm 
Nice design, but I had to rewire the switches to the switchboard to make it useful in singleplayer for faster switching. Great design but nothing I'd take out to take out a POI with.
jrandall  [author] 17 Apr, 2019 @ 5:32am 
Thank you so much Rizzo and Aristacah :)
Aristacah 16 Apr, 2019 @ 9:42pm 
I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this beautiful creation. Gorgeous, clean lines, well made and put together....and then I spawned it in game. JR, you've outdone yourself, yet again. ♥
Rizzo 16 Apr, 2019 @ 6:06pm 
"What ships should we spawn?"
"Dunno.... what has JRandall built lately??"
"Nuff said!"
jrandall  [author] 16 Apr, 2019 @ 2:35pm 
Haha! Thank you very much Fractalite!
Fractalite 16 Apr, 2019 @ 12:15pm 
Your output and ability are stupifying. You are going to test my ability to come up with new ways of praising you. :steamhappy:
jrandall  [author] 16 Apr, 2019 @ 6:17am 
Thank you very much n2q0, Ryuukon, and Red Baron :)
Red Baron 16 Apr, 2019 @ 2:51am 
If POI's were Ribeye Steak......This is the knife to cut it and eat it with. Nom Nom Nom! Outstanding work as always Sir. Style, Function, and attention to detail. Liked and Fav'd
Kitsurei 15 Apr, 2019 @ 9:45pm 
I think this just became my all time favorite CV. AMAZING work!
n2q0 15 Apr, 2019 @ 4:06pm 
Welp, getting this one too. Just finished spawning the Waypoint Hanger and a couple Waypoint Vaults for my Farpoint Station. Transit-CH3 is working out nicely also....Glad you aren't charging for these, Jrandall. :)
jrandall  [author] 15 Apr, 2019 @ 3:39pm 
Thank you cormacc2002 :)
cormacc2002 15 Apr, 2019 @ 2:50pm 
I will check this one out keep the candy going he he great job.:steamhappy:
jrandall  [author] 15 Apr, 2019 @ 9:39am 
Thank you Bisch, Cinerite, and Muttley! This one was fun to build and something different to do based on Xcalibers challenge specs. Thanks again all!
