More microspace (Assyrians updated)

Post by Bragallot » Wed Oct 26, 2011 10:44 am

Natalya's forum battle got me inspired, and it seemed only proper to return the gesture, so here goes:

Image

An Assyrian medical orbital outpost in remote space. Two light torpedo frigates are resting in the bays for repairs, while another group is returning from its patrol.

Image

My take on those cute little boats are armed with torpedoes and single turret guns, much the same as Natalya's.

Image

In charge of overseeing this space station is this Light Destroyer, my take on the Venus. Not quite how I wanted it to be but I didn't have all the specific parts. Even so the Sphynx looks sufficiently deadly.

Image

Armed with a super laser, three turrets and four torpedo launchers.

Image

Many such outposts have appeared in space since the start of the Immortal War, and it's necessary, because...

Image

... the Inquistadores haven't been sitting still either. This Leopard-class Dragonhead cruiser, called the Midnight is the first in a line of ships that was built in honour to the Immortal Advisor the Inquisitionary Monarchy was told to expect to aid their invasion of Prussian Space soon after the 'Mastercutor Disaster', which wasn't a decisive tactical defeat, but still allowed Duchess Angelica Del Montero, in charge of the invading 4th Legion, to be captured, which caused the invasion much delay.

Image

No money or effort has been spared in it's creation: the main guns and a part of the bridge are both gilded.

Image

With one double and two single Mk. 1 missile launchers, a heavy main laser, two automated laser batteries, two EMP anti-fighter turrets, three main turrets, increased armour and shields and Immortal crews to arrive the Leopard-class is the ultimate kind of Dragonhead and the Inquistadores' answer against the newly arisen Mastercutor-class cruisers of the Neo-Prussian Empire.

Image

Speaking of which, rumour has it the Prussians have struck foreign deals with the Avalonians and Akkadians to increase the potency of their navy while it recovers from its losses. Most of all the lighter ships had been found too ineffective and fragile, and are thus reportedly being upgraded with stronger and / or more weaponry in the remote corner of the Brikverse the Prussian navy has gone to for repairs... Shown are the Eagle Mk. 2 and the Dominator Mk. 3.

/ foreshadowing.

Awesome. I especially like the Leopard-class and the upgraded Prussian ships.

The promised Immortal Advisor is on his way to the Prussian sector to set things straight...

Image

Soon this ship, the Darkstar, will meet up with a host of Dragonheads sent to reinforce the 4th legion.

Image

I fear with this ship I might have built one that could possibly match the Mastercutor, which was able to emerge victorious even when left (almost) alone against two dragonheads and a brittanian gunboat.

Image

Armament:
1x main plasma cannon
1x wormhole projector*
2x double Mk. 1 missile launcher
2x main turrets
4x point defense
1x squad of (4) immortal fightercraft
1x squad of (4) immortal bombercraft

* it replaces the black hole projector, which I didn't like. On a succesful hit, it can move the intended target up to 4" from it's original point as the operator intends, whether they be enemies or allies. Seeing the importance of strategic maneuvering in microspace, this seemed like an interesting weapon and powerful and 'Immortal-ish' enough too, rather than an all-powerful weapon.

Image

The Prussians had better start preparing.

I love the design of this. I wonder what it would look like with SNOT. And NPU with the radio.

Nice! I like the wormhole idea, with a good commander that could be quite a weapon... :twisted:

Hey im not trying to suck here but if it isn't too much trouble can you get rid of the red? Assyrians don't use any red in their colour scheme, only dark red, white, black, clear, dark transparent blue, and greys are used by them.

I actually tried to make it almost all-white at first, eh eh (lacked parts). I didn't know there were so many alternatives, but there should be something I can do now that I do (I already got rid of some of the red since I took these pictures). I still had to dig through my bricks to finish a ship anyway. I'll be out tomorrow, will probably change it Wednesday. Who knows, with the added colours I might even manage to improve it.

Thanks. I am honoured that you made some of my stuff, Im just trying to make sure that when other people make my units the colours get unified.

It's no problem at all, actually it helped a lot in improving the design.

Image

More grey than you'd expect in an Assyrian vessel, but at least I got rid of the red. It's also closer to the original design now.

Image

I did make it slightly (like 1 stud) longer so I could keep the 4 torpedo launchers.

Image

The 4 torpedo launchers are still there, they're the round things now that are single missile launchers with other ships.

This is all very cool I really like that last shot with the missiles firing.
