    Note: Had to host it externally because it's too awesome and won't upload normally.

    Well, here it is. Probably the best ship I've ever made, this menacing titan is loaded completely for war and genocide. It is easily capable of tearing planets or similarly sized ships to ribbons with it's fixed armaments, and it's turrets are extremely adept at keeping the flanks clear. Just take note that sustained turret fire at close range will drain the ship's power slowly, such is it's immense volume of fire.

    Main Weapons :
    1x Planet-cracker Beam Laser
    1x Rapid Fire Cannon Array
    1x Vertical Launch Capital Long Range Missile Battery

    Turrets :
    4x Dual Large Main Cannons
    10x Medium Short Range Dual Rapid Fire Beam Laser Cannons
    8x Medium Gatling Point Defense Laser Cannons
    8x Small Long Range Missile Batteries
    20x or so unused small docking points.

    Note: Sizes are relative, the main cannons are bigger than most ships and the medium turrets are nonetheless very large compared to most conventional turrets.

    It has Ion and Overdrive; the ion stats changed a bit after the ship was finished, and gives about a 30% boost, rather than the usual 50%. Overdrive Slowly drains power reserves, use sparingly. Shields sit at about 280'000'000 roughly, the ship is 700m long.

    I will refrain posting exact stats, given their habit of changing all the time. Numbers that were cited are current at the time of publishing.

    <3 Such a sleek, menacing, evil, just my style design :)
    amazing ship! when I loaded the ship in the old docking system causes most of the turrets to undock. with credit to the creator, I have replaced the old docking system with the new rails system.
    I really like the color scheme and the lighting on it looks awesome. Weapons and support systems could prob be updated. Great choice with the Nightcore'd Blind Guardian music at the end haha.

    It warms my black heart that people still look at these things after so long. Thankyou.
    Nice Hull? Yep. Good usage efficiency / block? Nope. May be old version filling? AI can't drive on this ship.

    Rather old, yes indeed. when it was built the inefficiency ddidint really make a difference at this level of mass
    This ship is awesome. I really like the design and aesthetics. The turret docking system seems a bit out of date and the grouped blocks of power generators is inefficient but this ship is so damn fantastic. I don't suppose you have a version that is just a hull?

    This ship is indeed an old one, long before the new rail system. The blocks of power generators are inefficient only to a point, once the connected arrays of power reach a certain generator capacity they cease to be any more efficient than big blocks, so I dont think having a bespoke array would really make a jot of difference (at least such was the case when it was built). I'm afraid I do not have a hull only version to play with, but I'm glad you like it despite it's age.
    did you use the sound track from Turok in that video???

    Orphaniel
    Yes. Yes I did, and I'd do it again :p
    Beautiful ship, however i am having this issue with it. When i get inside and try to drive it. I have to zoom out and fly in 3rd person. IN the video it looks lie you flew it in first. How did you go about this???

    Oh, you use camera blocks for that, there's a number of them on the ship, and you can switch views between them with the LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys. Happy to help!

    I apologise that it's not starmade-hosted. The site spat the dummy when I tried to upload it, so it's hosted on my drop-box, which seems to work fine for me.

    Let me know if you still have trouble, and let me know if you would like to change your review, because I'll need to delete this comment for you to do so.

    Ooh! It's been a while since anything I've made received a review ((It's been a while since I've made anything full-stop)); Thankyou!

    In any case, you are a braver man than I!
    dude it looks fucking majestic xD but i got one problem (because im new to the game) so how do i actually get inside?

    I am glad you like it, the entrance is at the back between the engines. It used to be a lot more obvious, but I armored it a little more because it represented a bit of a weak point. Once inside the core is in the large floating spheroid in the middle, with two doors on the lower half leading within.
