Such a beautiful ship, its really one of the most aesthetic ones ive ever seen. Wish you would come back and design more. AND it has intelligent defensive and offensive building, you know your stuff.

This is very good ship. I've been looking for a ship like this for a long time. In battle simply a "Pickaxe". :-) Thanks very much.

Looks awesome. Love the design. Sadly, not compatible with "unblocked thrusters" setting that the server I play one uses, but I'll hopefully find some time to change that.

It's also amazed at how some pvp players just don't understand that not everyone gives a toss about pvp. PvE for me, and this fulfils the function I'm looking for!

Rather instantly felt affection for this one. Singular in purpose but anything but devoid of style- this is likely my Destroyer of Choice henceforth. Thank you.

Maybe just read the description next time, and dont attack a PVE Vessel as a bad PVP vessel.
Anyway, im out of this nonsense discussion with you, have a nice day and enjoy life!

A Dreadnaught has more armor and guns than any PVP ship in Normal Empyrion. Pretty much any CV can beat a dreadnaught...

And as stated in the description, my goal was to solo a Dreadnought,.... nothing else^^

I dont build anything for PvP, to be honest... PvP and EGS are 2 things that doesnt fit in my opinion, it is a PVE Vessel, like all i build before and will be build in the future! If u want to change it to a PvP Vessel, feel free to... but i will never change any of my builds to support a feature that broken as hell in EGS. Or do you like that spiral-movement-metashit? xD I dont and will never support support that^^

Mate, I just checked this you have 2x T3 Fuel 1x block away from the outside a front wall, and the bait generators are only 1 block in too also very little anti lag armor. Warp is just 2 blocks away, I think i fyou made this slightly bigger then it would be better and used the minigun turrets as baits, this would be impressive, visually its brilliant, technically, from a pvp standpoint its easily wiped.

Thank you Kithid and Kamikaze Verso, much appreciated^^

And for the Fueltanks , have a look in creative at the internals,
u will notice the massive amount of armor containing lots of Xeno and Combat steel,
the layout is designed to draw any incoming fire from th front into its nosepart, the core and its extenders are located in the center in the very backside. even if the complete middlepart is destroyed and gone, the ships is fully maneuverable still at this point(but its exactly the moment where u should run^^)

Cool ship. What tool will you base your next ship on? ;)
IONSTORM 21 Jun, 2021 @ 7:46am 
Those fuel tanks will likely blow the core no?

I LOVE THIS SO HARD!!!!

maybe i will switch the cockpiseat with the teleporter,
so the player is way more safe down there..., it happened that a mislleaded rocket shot me out of it, even with several armorlayers above...
HeckenDiver  [author] 20 Jun, 2021 @ 3:30pm 
Ok, now that i have your attention, can we please sit back a moment and have a minute of silence...
Remembering all the other Pickaxes died in testfights or from explosions due to bad engineering while developing this build.

I would love to see more people doing builds for those of us that aren't RP. My toon doesn't sleep, he doesn't need quarters. Love how you built this bud, simple and to the point.
HeckenDiver  [author] 20 Jun, 2021 @ 6:58am 
thank you guys really appreciated!
Have fun with it while trying, or even dismantling that ship^^

I've been waiting to see this finished since you posted the wip. It may be the cv of my dreams, but as my dreams frequently change that's not saying as much as it should. The controlled firing arcs of the heavy weapons make me very happy, I've stopped using artillery because it just does too much aoe damage. I can't wait to get this into creative and totally ruin what you've done!
