The steamer began to move slowly away but on the landward horizon appeared the silhouette of a fighting machine
Another came, and another, striding over hills and plunging far out to sea and blocking the exit of the steamer
Between them lay the silent, grey Ironclad Thunder Child
Slowly it moved towards shore
Then, with a deafening roar and whoosh of spray,
It swung about and drove at full speed towards the waiting Martians.

in the morse code room

i waited and no explosion i typed in 1893

doesnt explode
for me)

please convert this to a passenger ship :praying:

HOW long does it takes till the explosion

i cant sink the ship

Control it from the turret

how to shoot with main gun?

Thunder

Cmon Thumderchild!

how long does it take to sink?

Also this is pretty good for a Thunderchild

Martians gangsta till HMS Thunderchild pulls up

i cant find the torpedos

we boutta kill some martians with this one

this ships gun in the bow is kinda over powered last time i used it

do you need weapons pack for this cuz there aint no explosion

How to sink: On the port gun battery if you open the lower door, To the left of the captain's room is the Spotting/Wireless room, On the upper keypad type 1893.

how to start up: open both boiler doors
wait until pressure says 20
then go to the wheelhouse and then set telegraph to whatever you want!

yeah i suffer the same thing (dev plis fix!!!!!)

I would just like to say, I use this boat the most, but two problems I have ran into is that there isn't enough pressure to move the boat anymore. But also, every time I spawn it, a block falls out the bottom and it starts sinking. Please may you fix this, as I use this boat for everything.

I cant figure out how to make the ship move i wait for the pressure to rise but when i rise the throttle up the engines are still too slow to move the ship T_T

it's thunder child which is the part of Jeff Wayne's musical version of "War of the Worlds" which derives the situation of the song from H.G Wells' book of the same name. The Thunder Child also features in C.A Cooper's book "last days of thunder child"

@Bat_eastw00d What song is that?

There were ships of shapes and sizes
Scattered out along the bay
And I thought I heard her calling
As the steamer pulled away
The invaders must have seen them
As across the coast they filed
Standing firm between them
There lay Thunder Child
Moving swiftly through the waters
Cannons blazing as she came
Brought a mighty metal warlord
Crashing down in sheets of flame
Sensing victory was nearing
Thinking fortune must have smiled
People started cheering
"Come on, Thunder Child!"
"Come on, Thunder Child!"
Lashing ropes and smashing timbers
Flashing heat rays pierced the deck
Dashing hopes for our deliverance
As we watched the sinking wreck
With the smoke of battle clearing
Over graves in waves defiled
Slowly disappearing
Farewell, Thunder Child!
Slowly disappearing
Farewell, Thunder Child!
Farewell, Thunder Child!
Farewell, Thunder Child

converted this into passenger ship since cool ship

so fun

what are the other ships in Screenshot number 1

Moving swiftly through the waters,
Cannons blazing as she came.
Brought a mighty metal warlord
Crashing down in sheets of flame.
Sensing victory was nearing,
Thinking fortune must have smiled,
People started cheering;

"Come on Thunder Child!"
"Come on Thunder Child!"

"Brought A Mighty Metal Warlord, Crashing Down In Sheets Of Flame!"

Such a strange but unique design

Thanks for bringing up the thunderchild from war of the worlds when I saw this I was like WAR OF THE WORLDS!?!?!

Absolutely love the look of her and especially the engine room pistons. I'm curious about how its actually powered though? I couldn't find any turbines or generators and it seems the boiler steam outlet is connected to nothing?
