That Battlezone was a damn fine game, a pity rebellion's reboot is dead

@Angry Capsicum From the Battlezone? That was a cool game. But I think I got the shape from Warhammer 40K Eldar hover tanks...

Reminds me of a certain soviet space tank

@drylokol, yes if you built it at level 20 when it became officially available. I thought it was cool looking enough to load it in creative and remove all the turrets, after doing that it made it possible to create it earlier (level 8) then add the gat turrets to it untill I got something better. But it being a level 20 HV I'd think it's be able to take a bit more of a pounding, it's fine against drones (unless its a missile drone) and it doesn't stand a chance against plasma drones. I'm not saying it's overall a bad HV really I'm not if I didn't like it I wouldn't have modded it I would have just built my own from scratch like I've been doing with SVs and Cap ships as well as bases.

@drylokol Thanks for your comment :)

@rainyday: I've learned a bit and really the only thing I've done is gone plasma on the side turrets and added lights. :-D Well done!

@Gretstar: The original design isn't a frontal assault vehicle. It's nimble and those cockpit holes are it's best attributes. Pretoection while harvesting/exploring rocks. For POI's, I leverage terrain and snipe. POI heavy weapons are SV targets prirmary targets.

This link leads to my version of this HV, it's not "Much" different overall, although I did remove the extra lights on the back and the flares as they tend to cause lag when you get to many lights on at the same time.

alright will do

@Greystar Great :) I agree that it's probably quite vulnerable by current standards. I will revisit combat style HV's at some point - even if this isn't quite that, more of a light scout with some long range sniping possibilities. Feel free to post your version as long as you credit the original. Interested to see what kind of changes you made :)

I liked this but found that since it uses alot of the "thin" variants of the blocks it doesn't hold up very well against turrets and not at all against the cap ship that likes to fly around on some planets. I tweaked it a bit and was considering posting my version of this and your SV version on the workshop but havent yet

@drylokol Great to hear :) This is one of the things I built when I was new to EGS too - but it's seen few updates since then.

Man, I'm new to EGS. Got a lucky start, so I've tried all kinds of ground vehicles for mining and POI assaults -- this is my go-to. Friggin genius placement of the round indents next to the cockpit. As a noob, these things have saved my bacon a bunch! Great performance, really easy to tweak and maintain. Awesome build!

OK now going to try to Make a (SV) now
rainyday  [author] 18 Mar, 2017 @ 12:17pm 
@Tom21 You might have a point, too bad its not that easy to change hv->sv...
Tom21 18 Mar, 2017 @ 7:50am 
The Stingray look's more like a SV Fighter then a HV, But doss look's Great!
