This was my first railgun ship that I was still testing so it isn't finished yet.

Here's my Bowie tribute railgun "T" wall.

Nice ship, hard to beat even with equal designs in terms of cost. Did you built this from the scratch or modified a ship with Ion-Beam-emitters?

Also a great ship! Hard fighter! Its mainly a cannon-wall, but i think you kinda need to combine the Railguns with other Weapons to get something efficient..
Im still testing around with those Railguns. Cool weapons, but needs ammo, lot of crew, lot of power and they need to be very well protected (shielded). So there is really a bunch of things to do, even more than with the emitters, to get them in god use. And i tink you cant really let a ship run with only these weapons.

Here's the Railgun ship I made that I'm most happy about. It's 1.2M.

I built it from scratch since it is easier for me to do than to retrofit an older design. Unfortunately it still has a lot of flaws that I need to work out with the defenses and it's speed

With backup missile launchers, point defense and armor out the wazoo, and a whopping 1,010% damage boost, I humbly present the

BASTARD'S RAIL

So, I have finally finished my first railgun ship. There are no mods so it isn't the longest railgun but it is a pretty decent one. And since it was able to defeat my one ship that I had not been able to beat before by gutting the middle I named this the Ship Breaker. I still need to do a few tweaks to it to make it a little more sturdy but I am happy with it so far

ImNotLaffng So, I decided to test out your ship and there is a glaring flaw in your design. Your railguns are way too exposed. When I tested your ship against one I made that costs about the same the railguns were taken out almost immediately which lead to your ships destruction.

This was the ship I threw together.

So, I made one change to your ship and it was able to destroy mine.

That section of armor blocks in the middle made it much harder for the railguns to be taken out which let your ship do a lot more damage since it has two railguns while mine only had the one

culanns_hound Thanks for the redesign, I designed it with more stuff in the middle and in deleting it I didn't substitute it. I was also designing it before rail guns penetrated shields.

mystery_player you need to look up the definition of "overkill"

Lads and gents, I present to you, the ultimate glass cannon, completely vanilla and utterly useless...
