Vol Superweapon

[Tuefish]

Introducing the "Golden Bough"
The first of it's kind! A minifig-scale Railgun Frigate!

After GRs of studying and building Railgun weapons and technology, the Vol have achieved a level of mastery well beyond any other faction in the known universe,
that masterpiece is now ready to see action on any and all Vol front-line skirmishes.





Her primary weapon is a Category 40 railgun, according to my custom railgun rule which I will post a little later.
Secondary armaments include category 4 railgun turrets, 10 Mk 4 Höd missiles and 10 Mk 3 Trident missiles.
Tertiary point-defenses (for killzone tactics) consist of 5 Point-range laser turret banks.

Edit: Railgun rules posted Here

that ship is incredibly sexy

[DavidP]

hurl a magnetic mine or two at it and problem solved.

I hope the separate crew and engine compartment can separate.
then you can do a star trek man over but instead of a warp core
you jettison the main gun.

looks good.

Actually, this is what I like to call a "Modular Frigate" meaning that the engines/cabin is the same as this one.

Whoa. That is one impressive railgun. I like the way you tried to show the exposed machinery, and the missiles hanging off the sides are pretty cool.

[Bragallot]

It's very well built. Looks extremely powerful on the offensive but also vulnerable. Well who cares more explosions

[Paco]

It's a giant gun with smaller guns on it! I love it.

[james+burgundy]

meh. I like the rail gun but it could use some work and the rest of the ship is just plan boring. Seems like everyones idea of a big ship frond here is to do a carbon copy of AF's ships. Make it long make it then and add a big gun.

Nice job Tue, I to have been experimenting rail weapon designs for the MAOX forces, and don't know if you are aware of it, but a super weapon is under construction, almost the size of this ship, in its final state, probably bigger! Here, take a look at this sneak peak (already in my artwork thread)...



Tremble puny empires, the hour of your doom is at hand!

[james+burgundy]

darn you now I have to keep up with the Johnsons and build my own super weapon.

[Cpl. Halan]

I kinda like it, the proportions look weird though, it's 80% railgun and 20% frigate

I read the title too fast and got:
Super Volkswagen

[Warhead]

Big Gun is BIG!

Thank fuck your own our side. Needs a sticker "POINT TOWARDS ENEMY"

[Atomsk]

Very nice, I like the concept of building a ship around a weapon, like the Ion Frigates in Homeworld. Now you just need a target big and slow enough to hit!

I think Strana's fleet fills that requirement.
