    OK... That is a lot of feedback *whistles* My piece of advice is to add lighting to that hole in the back. (maybe a green, or red or blu... well any color for that matter) but anyway that ship is just massive! My own spiderweb shell of a SDV-Class Heavy Corvette (Halo geek) is smaller than that monsterosity!

    Out of curiosity, what is the height and width of the ship? It's looking fantastic by the way :)

    If I remember correctly, the height including the turret is around 220m. As for the width, around 300-350m.

    Also, UPDATE 5 :D

    Your sniper turret is twice as large as my largest craft. You, sir, are akin to a god of war. Which may not be a good thing.

    Regardless, props.

    If I saw this ship flying anywhere close to me I'd probably wet my pants and run away. Can't wait to see it all finished up and detailed!
    if I saw this ship I will try and kill it but I most likely will die but it will be worth a shot :P.

    I think that you should put the medium turrets that are in the front in a superfire configuration to increase the amount of fire that can be used on target that is in front.

    Superfire
    Hmmm, good idea.

    I'll look into it :)

    Edit: Tried it, didn't look so good. It's not that bad though, I wouldn't be too concerned about the turrets if I was flying in front of the ship ;)

    Very... the quantities can not be measured by current instruments.

    (I intend on having it kill most ships in a single burst or very short time at the cost of extreme energy consumption)

    sounds like my capital's primary weapon lol. I recommend 180 groups of 800dmg AMC cannons with a 50 billion power reservoir ;).

    I have to recreate this thing 6 times... I wish there was a copy-paste tool cause this is going to be painful.

    Edit: took me 17 minutes to recreate one.... welp, 5 to go :p

    For those wondering, I'm currently making the visual parts of the super weapon (which is pretty much the entire front section of the ship). This is part of the guiding rails (the two massive front pieces of the ship):

    Wait, is your super-weapon going to be in the base of your tuning fork, shooting out between the two prongs?

    Anyway, great work on the ship so far.

    looking good so far and keep up the great work :D! O_O that detail works going to take ages to finish and I thought the detail work on my 200m ship was bad enough XD. I feel so bad for you :(. especially with all those slopes and angels...

    Yep, that's exactly what it's going to be :cool:. Most likely a giant laser of doom.

    I recommend to add a large precise rapid cannon array with the explosive weapon amplifier to give it some nice splash damage so it can deal overall more block and shield damage :). also this ship should definitely have a death star beam so it can destroy entire planets :D! and don't forget the lock on missiles so it can cause some extra catastrophic precise damage :).
