the_guy545 Flirting I'm just saying the ships are great and i don't see her here that much even though she could easily attract a lot of ship conesuers
Minion222 it's not the size that counts, it's how you use it π
... it turns out that the "Swords" are super hard to control - maneuvering constantly needs attention. But when you manage to command they reveal rewarding & unexpected qualities ...
SpaceCat an experience worth sharing. In fact I let others pilot my sword whenever I have company!
Fought the Longsword some yesterday, I think a driveby laser broadsider can be really good if it can circle cannon ships. Maybe the only thing better would be to only have lasers on one side and add thrust with all the extra cash. Hmm..
nop ofc you are aware that these are also "artships"...
... i have extracted ideas of this aesthetic concept already ...

Artships can inspire new competitive designs. A lot of my good ships were inspired by built-in "artships" which weren't implemented perfectly but could be used in interesting ways. I use Marauder knock-offs all the time, and got ideas from Twincruiser, Metalhopper, Avalanche, and some others.
I tried building a one-sided laser circler, but the thrust was all messed up, so it's gonna need more work.
