    Miner49er 2015-06-20

    Welcome to Blue Sun Occupational Division.

    Tire of the same old boxy mining ships you see in the Verse? Want some style while you eat asteroids? Annoyed with moving your targeting reticule to cover an entire asteroid? Are you ready for an excellent size to efficiency mining ship?

    We at BSOD have developed the ship just for you. We introduce Miner49er.

    What you see here is the initial configuration of the ship. You will note the relatively large rotating mining heads. Yes you saw that right, rotating mining heads. Just point this baby at a rock and sit back and relax while it does the work for you.



    Look down at the console and you will locate the BSOD patented control system for the mining heads. The first button activates the rotating mining heads as seen below.



    The second button rotates these mining heads inward 45 degs as to specifically target a single asteroids with double the power. Believe us when we say you will be coring asteroids in no time.



    The third and final button extends these mining heads out for those really big asteroids, the mother lode!



    Just in case this ship is outfitted with a high intensity salvage beam for those stubborn blocks. Also ore collection is made easy by a storage module placed just inside the door for the high intensity beam, and one on each side of the mining heads.

    With this base introductory model you will have the resources you need to make your next capital ship to take over the Verse. *Note* introductory model does not come with shields, overdrive or warp drive. But it has plenty of interior room for whatever upgrade you choose. Send payment for this ship in the form of likes or creative post ratings.

    Thank you for choosing BSOD for all your industrial needs.

    Taking miners to a whole new level, 5/5 would mine again.
    Pretty nice rework of my idea :) I like that you have it in a smaller version than I did. Also the extending arms are a nice touch.
    Great concept and very good cheap to build ship at under 1 mil

    should be called The rock eater LOL
    Now THIS is some innovative and effective salvager!
    And great design, too.
    Looks quite like the result of a Naboo Starfighter making love to a tunnel driller :D
