Hi! While war machines are fun (at least in fiction) i wanted to do something more civil (and less dark and grey) and now i can present you the new Eidolon Exploration Cruiser
I took some inspiration from the Thirdspace Alien Cruisers (Pic, Babylon 5) and apparently/probably the Mass Effect Relays (although i haven´t thought about them while building...)
Length: 500m (yes, it was my entry in pomosas contest even though i kind of tried to do a RP Ship with full interior which didn´t help with pure stats effectivity).
It is just over 2M blocks big, fills its 937M Power storage with 8M fixed and 4M modular recharge, 324k Thrust and 7.5M Shields.
As it was intended as a long range explorer (think of Enterprise) and not a Battleship it only has 12 Turrets (á 10k DPS) a 138k DPS Main AMC Array plus BB and Dumbfire Missiles. It also features a medium salvage array in the very front. (i use a 45/10/20/25 weapon setting: more DPS and less energy consumption at the cost of range)
Thrust and main cannon is power stable, so it is actually possible to use a OC Cloaker (for a few seconds) or a Radar Jammer as defense against Pirates (in Star Trek they always escape/win using some new trick ;-)
I also thought of an RP explanation for the big glowing ball in the middle^^ \"The whole ship construction works as a bussard collector (Star Trek Fans will know) that gathers interstellar hydrogen to use as fuel in the open singularity fusion core...\" and some more fancy technobabble :-D
