@Tenryuu
Yes someone brought it to my attention that I didn't like the old tail ;)

@HUE
Haha I am pleased that this post is bringing out the IG fans.

"-There are also no downwards thrusters. Just press C and gravity will take care of you :)"

Nah son, the Emperor will take care of me.
The Emperor protects!

P.S. As soon as planets came out, I figured someone was going to make a valkyrie/vulture gunship :D

In order to be in the VTOL class, you simply need the ability to take off and land verticly. Using rotating thrusters is more efficient and widely used for real world applications, so I see the misunderstanding.

Here is the wiki page for this aircraft which clearly states VTOL in the first sentence.

This is not a VTOL because it doesnt have any rotating thrusters.

Glad people still know alot about Warhammer 40k.

Get the Ultimate Apocalypse mod for Dawn of War: Soulstorm w/ the New Factions version. You won't regret it.

Meh, good point, maybe make the Mk. II a transport version instead of a gunship? :D

It would be simple to make it a little longer if it bugs you. Just turn on symmetry, cut it at the skinny part and let the back half fall off, add a few more blocks to lengthen it, then copy paste the back half back on.

As of right now its got 1,127 subscribers which is way more than I thought I'd have after 4 days. It would be kinda mean to delete this and have it disappear for all of them just to do a simple fix like that.

:balloon: Did I hear somebody say Mk. II time? :balloon:

I agree Tenryuu the tail is my least favorite thing about this build. Now looking at it I think it should be about 2-3 blocks longer to look more like the model I used to build it. Oh well, too late now :)

I love the curved wing look with it but the tail for something like this is meh in my opinion.

@Rhedd
Yep all vanilla, thanks

@leo312
If you look just below your comment you'll see why I didn't build it for survival. If you really want one then just use this as a base and build it how you like. Also I didn't put side thrusters on because they aren't needed in atmosphere.
Rhedd 21 Nov, 2015 @ 4:08pm 
Really nice job. Looks great. I don't see any mods, so extra points for being able to make it look like anything!
leo312 21 Nov, 2015 @ 3:06pm 
Can't you make a vanilla version with functional relodabl weapons and conveyor system plus thrusters in all directions? That would be absolutely awesome.

@Sgt.Dreadnoughts
It's kind of a form vs function thing. I really only play in creative mode so the things I make are meant for such. It's just easier to make nicer looking vehicles when you don't need to have conveyors, connectors ect. So I wouldn't recommend you use this ship in survival unless you were to modify it.

@NordicBeast
Thanks man! I love that IG stuff
Temporaryalien 20 Nov, 2015 @ 4:11pm 
Are you going to make it survival ready or is it alreadt ready for that?
NordicBeast 20 Nov, 2015 @ 12:34am 
Gorgious! I'm a big imperial guard player and used a few Valkyries in my army, well done good sir!
