    That is just....GLORIUS! The scale,the detail,the beauty is just amazing!

    And with the damage it will be perfect for performing Extrminatus upon worlds that have fallen from The Emperors favour.

    And remember..

    I have begun work on a Lunar Class cruiser, roughly 1/10 scale thanks to seeing your work on a battle barge. She won\'t be perfectly to scale with every little detail, but i must once again thank you for the inspiration to build this 500 meter long beast.



    another note, anyone have pictures of a lunar class cruiser with a nova cannon instead of her bow torpedoes? i\'ve been looking and can\'t seem to find one. apologies if i\'m stupid.

    I found a picture of a Lunar-class model with the nova cannon on, it\'s the third from the left:

    So, how big will each fighter bay be? Because I\'ve been considering trying to throw together some Lightning and Thunderbolt fighters to go with this, and I\'d like to know if it\'s possible to do 1:1 scale (it should be, as they shouldn\'t require many docking enhancers).

    why not make it a 40K instead (and yes i know that decreases the power.)

    most of the time it just \"flips\" the planets crust inside out. this make it take anough 1,000,000,000 to make it not a lava covered ball.

    The Macros are all AM right now but I\'ve been debating converting them to missile as the projectile is a bit more authentic. I can tell you that each of the larger broadside cannons hold 20,000 of whatever weapon system is used so while I don\'t have a numeric value for you, you can rest assured they pack a punch.

    Each fighter bay is 18x12 right now, the ship is 1/10 scale as I didn\'t want to jump right in on a 10k ship (my laptop is thanking me for that decision), however they are stacked so a couple could easily be opened up to 18x24. The interior has extensive room for ships so as long as it can squeeze through 18x24 it will be fine. Additionally there will likely be additional docking at the stern with the cruiser dock.

    Hmm. See, after looking at the ship dimensions I had considered doing a Fury as it\'s bigger (thus allowing for more dakka), but the smallest pattern of Fury is 40m long and looks to have a wingspan of something like 24-32m, which would make it turn rather slowly in StarMade and thus be unsuitable for a Fighter/Interceptor, and would also probably just be a bit too big for the bays.

    The problem with Lightning and Thunderbolt fighters is both that they\'re atmospheric fighters and that they\'re smaller, which makes it difficult to make a decent lookalike without scaling up, which would almost certainly end up making them too big for the bays. Eh, whatever. I\'ll start prototyping a Thunderbolt and a Fury and see how they turn out first.

    UPDATE: Finished prototyping the Thunderbolt. Image: http://imageshack.us/a/img827/3844/bb4d.png

    So yeah, not too good on the outside and its weapons aren\'t very strong. I know the wings are off but seeing as how the thing was a failure in terms of combat capability at 1:1 scale it\'s not worth fixing. Gonna try the Fury next.

    Yeah, so I built the outer shell of the Fury\'s fuselage and put some power and thrusters in it and the thing turns way too slow. Gonna have to label this as a failure.

    How you done the macros? Are they AI controlled turrets? Or do you have to control them through the weapons computer?

    Its not ready just yet, I\'m working on the rear portion but I\'ve been busy with some web development for work so progress has been sluggish. Hopefully this next week will be a bit more calm and I can finish the ship.

    Thanks for the thunderbolt!

    Also, I don\'t know if you saw it, but I\'ve tried to replicate a Thunderhawk, here\'s the link :

    It\'s not perfect, I\'ll have to rework on it. And with the upcoming land vehicles ( eventually ) I\'ll have to work a docking module under him so he can transport rhinos or land raiders!

    anybody know how big a starhawk bomber is? i would like to build one or two (normal bomb or torpedoes) All i know is that they are huge compared to the fury which is usually about 70 meters long.
