Hey, this sounds like a lot of fun! I can upgrade the big ships if you guys are okay with my help.

xPLAYn Sure, you can have the big ships, my computer can't handle those monstrosities.

Here is an example of my work:

It's 18 ships and two escape pods in one self-contained, $17 million ship.

Inkless wow, that second one looks like a gaster blaster! except for the long fingers.

xPLAYn

On it. Sorry about the long wait.

xPLAYn

I'll have the blue ship finished by tomorrow.

albin_xl

Inkless

albin_xl I guess people just like to do this kind of stuff, i mean i am now running the 40k battle for somone else, help is AlWAYS good, especially if it doesn't matter

and I mean, you can always create remodeled versions in your eyes

Here is the improved version against your original:

And here is the improved ship:
image https://i.imgur.com/SDorJx8.png
Cost: $2,864,500
Crew: 326
Weight: 9831.0 Tonnes

IMPROVEMENTS:
-Compartmentalized most of the ship
-Added Point Defense
-Rearranged Shields
-Added more Shields
-Moved the Crew and Reactors to more convenient places
-removed all Reactor Storages
-Added some Super Armor
-Added more Thrusters (for reverse)
-removed some Ion Beams

Overall, this ship is now virtually indestructible towards your previous version. The shields recharge so fast that it can't even break it, and the ion beams never shut off (unless the enemy ship drifts out of range). The inclusion of a Super Armor skin makes it a much better ship, and the reverse thrusters improve maneuverability handsomely.

I hope this helps 🙂

xPLAYn I decided to modify your modified version, here is the result

(by the way I don't use mods, so this doesn't have any)

xPLAYn

Also, those pyramid pieces are OP. They make the chance of hitting your shields -let alone your ion beams- nigh impossible until all of them are removed.

Inkless

xPLAYn yeah, I forgot to add them

simon1954 Sure thing!

xPLAYn

Inkless Looks great!

I'm just glad I could help. I tried to maximize the design while changing the outside look as little as possible, so no worries! Happy designing!

-Added Shields

Inkless

xPLAYn I decided to test this ship and found 2 problems

the reactors caused a chain reaction that blew the whole ship apart
electro-bolts because they only work with cannons(not small lasers)

so I decided to make this
