Any orbital drop shock pods?

This looks nice, but its a shame that other people have stolen your work

Sadly doesn't load anymore. One of my favorites in the day.

I like it's design, very nice. Now, only if I had this game, then I'd subscribe to it, big time!

Yeah I would much rather see an updated version with no mods vs with mods... any ship release in 2017 would be far better than a 2014 ship... no offense I get it... people get busy and unmotivated... still would make my day to see a updated one :)

@Big-Red I completely understand and that was a while back and I realized just how good of a ship it was since then mods or no mods :)

@Thu'umel Corvo I've thought of doing that if I get back into Space Engineers. Haven't had the time ever since I started my career IRL, though. :(

In my opinion (So you don't have to) an updated vanilla would be better than mods just so you don't have to make sure you have the mods activated every time you wanna use this ship

Someone built a Strident-Class Heavy Frigate Already.

This is #7 when you search UNSC and select all time raitings... why isn't this being updated?

Dex, i was talking about myself, when i said "halo fanboy" i meant that I was, trust me if i didnt like halo i wouldn't have clicked on this workshop item.

i have done some upgrades to the draken my self and was wondering if u would care to see them?

mods are fine in my opinion but just keep it from getting like one of those ships with 50+ mods

Though, in retrospect, Steam does show you what mods you need when you suscribe to a blueprint...

Perhaps I'll just stick with the planned modded version, but only go lightly on modded blocks where it'll make a true positive difference.

Let me know what you guys think! Would anyone here be opposed to me not including an updated vanilla version of the Draken?

Hey @[VTL]xFreelancer117 !

I have been planning on updating this 'ol girl up to current standards, so keep an eye out for a new version soon! The Draken was originally put out before mods were even a thing for Space Engineers, so I'm also planning on having two versions: a vanilla and mod-inclusive version.

To everyone else:

Can we keep it civil in here? I know we all love Halo, so there's no point in whipping our dicks out to see who loves it more or is a "true fan"

will it be updated with the games features? I have used this ship for months and watching it slowly get out dated :(

what did you say about "Halo Fanboy" is that it all you can say is that no o that looks cool goog job but no you have to make a insolt good fucking job kid grow up and grow some balls and btw this ship will look good nect to my UNSC orbital Station :) keep up the good work

UNSC FTW.... halo fanboy XDDD

also the Iroquoiss used that tactic long before the battle of Reach. During the battle of Reach Keyes was in command of the UNSC Pillar of Autumn which had just been diverted from it high risk mission to capture a prophet from behind enemy lines. (also when looking from facts on all stuff Halo use the halopedia it is all canon)

yes the Iroquoiss was a Destroyer which has a little more than 2 times the MAC firepower a charon class could support meaning a charon class, like the one here http://www.halopedia.org/Charon-class_light_frigate on the halopedia, would have 1x MAC so it would have room to forfill its role as a support vessel.

Hey have you ever seen the UNSC Iroquoiss from Halo the Battle of Reach, it's the ship used by Keyes to perform the Keyes manuever where he eliminates 2 frigates and a Destroyer. It boasts 2 MACs, 26 Archer missle pods, 3 shiva armed nukes, and 8 point defense. http://media.moddb.com/images/members/1/552/551636/unsciroquois.jpg is a picture of it and here is lore on the ship class itself http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/UNSC_destroyer

Just wanted to say that in the discription you said the the UNSC Foward on to Dawn WAS a charon class frigate; a charon class was a support frigate that carried x1 MAC, 50 Archer Misslie pods, 3 Hyperion Nuke silos, and and decent amount of anti-misslie point defence turrets. Also the ship in the screen shots is Strident class vessel which still would ony carry 1 MAC, not 3, and the only ships that would carry 3 MACs would be Capital Ships and the UNSC Infinity which carries 4 MACs. If you want to make a lesser know class than i suggest the UNSC Vindication light battleship which you can find on the halopedia. I wish no harm in saying this, but as you may tell I can't stand for misinformation on my favorite sc-fi series

@pizzajedi Will do! Currently working on an agile, heavily-armored, heavily-armed capital ship with slip-space capability just like the Draken. It's going to be more combat-focused than exploration, though.

MAKE MORE!!!!

I think I will use this as my exploration ship. It's well armed, has descent armor, and a jump drive (halo e.g. slip space drive).

Oooooooh, so THAT'S the proper name of this ship class! Thanks @evaneezerdee! All the images I found and used as refs for it were titled "Charon", so I assumed it was one of those.

This is a Strident Class, the newest frigate model in UNSC service, one of the first human ships aside from Infinity to have energy shielding. For some reason 343 made the Dawn's wreckage somehow change from Charon class to Strident class (while being left alone in space for four years). I don't like the Strident that much, the new human ships look featureless and bland, but you did some good work on this.

It won't load the mods or the ship... When Choose to copy and load from the workshop menu it just instantly loads four asteriods and nothing else... could someone halp meh plz. I really want to see this ship...

Because that's not a blueprint, but a world.

I really like the halo collection(I have all of them) and when i saw this i was very excited, but for some reason when i subscribe nad load up the game, it doesnt show up in the blueprints. I have subscribed to other stuff and they work but this one doesnt show up. Help?

dude this is awsome can you make the savannah next

I like this workshop item. Being a fan of halo it suprises me how much you can do in this game. good job creater! Keep up the good work!!

Archer Rockets or Havoc warheads?

Are you sure its not one of 343's new strident class frigates? Because it looks nothing like a charon class to me.

favorite player ship so far :D

this doesnt look like a Charon-Class Frigate, the Forward unto Dawn was a Charon-Class, (at least om pretty darn sure) and this doesnt look like it, still, good job!

hey so the front of the ship will randomly blow up in mid flight. i was in a pvp match and in the middle of flight the enitre front end just detonated. all that i could do was ram the ship into the enemy station. not sure what happend but plz fix it i love using this ship. :)

Hey, how do you chang your background in space, like your over Earth in your pictures.

This is really well built, looks fantastic and works really well. Good size too, not too massive.

@[Gent]xXOPTICSXx Not at all. My laptop, an ASUS G75V, can handle it just fine. :U

I love the ship you`ve built, i am also a true fan of the halo series. this ship is grand

Gravity Guns (or gravy guns for those who keep up with Schlock Mercenary) are like the drive, minus the artificial mass and add a connector. Adding stablizers (gravity gens that are finetuned to point into the center of the barrel) to the guns help when you are maneuvering

you place a bunch of artificial masses and gravity gens. Make sure the gen's "up" is in the direction you want the ship to go. turn them off (especially the artificial masses before you start adding any gravity), and link them all together as a hotgroup, then turn on/off as desired.

HEy red how did you do the slip space drive. i want to add it to my ship but i cant figure it out

I decided to drive into the blue ship with the slip space drive and something went wrong even by shutting down the control group and turning of the power my ship kept propelling forward

1 question Do You need the worlds BEST computer to run this map with a playable Framerate by computer im mean lik GTX titans or 780 ti's?

how did you get the backround to have that color?

It's not a Charon-class anymore, just for your information, it's a Strident-class heavy frigate.

This ship is awesome great work! I am very impressed! i would love to see you build the pillar of autumn or a heavier ship! The hyper drive is super cool btw!

I am a massive Halo fan. And you sir. You just created one of the most awesome things ever. It looks amazing! You should create more Halo ships. Maybe try making the Covenant Corvette that you board in Reach?
