Atherta federation: Light Destroyer

Post by bann154 » Thu Jun 08, 2017 8:44 pm

Image
I decided that a giant ass robot would never really see much in the way of combat so i went back to ship building. I decided that this time i would take a page out of the old 40k handbook and build a heavily armored ship with some form of Gothic design. It currently sits at 28" long.

Image
The front was a little tricky i had to do some looking around to see what other people did to catch the shape of Imperial vessels.

Image
Rear is a little blade now that i think about it i should add some slopes to those exposed bricks. It mounts a double cannon for rear defense.

Image
On the top it mounts a double cannon a beam cannon/lance weapon (i want to to make some weapon stats that are based on drawing power from the creation to power the weapon rather than using the size of the weapon itself) furthermore each side mounts 6 cannons.

Image
For further firepower it mounts 4 size 4 missiles on each side to help against fighters and even other ships in a pinch.

Image
Here is the captains deck that really is just a higher up viewing platform for the captain. It has a ladder to the lower deck.

Image
Here you can see the AI cores that assist in combat as well as the shield generator. When i was making the second floor of the chapel i thought it would be a waste to have just an empty little box so i threw in some AI cores for fun. origanally i was thinking of placing missiles up here and having the roof slide off or hinge open. I may still do this if you guys think its a good idea and then i will simply move the AI cores to the empty section behind the engineering bay.

Image
This is the crew area there is a small table 4 beds a hatch to the lower command deck and a hatch out and the door to the chapel.

Image
The chapel itself is rather bare right now having only a few things im open to suggestions on how to fill it.

Image
Here is the bottom command deck its also really bare.

Image
The ship is powered by an OT core that is normally used in spaceships of a much larger class.

Image
You can open the hatch above the main housing to expose the OT core however i don't really know why you would ever want to...

Image
This panel is actually a hatch that leads from the crew area to the outside of the ship. It also has a force field door to prevent venting atmosphere if the ship needs exterior repairs.

Also i don't have a name yet i have been thinking one of the following or if you wish to suggest a name or say which one sounds best it would be much appreciated.
I was thinking:
Serpent Of Sin
Serpent Of Retribution
Dark Retribution
Armour Of Atherta
My Factions/My Battles/My Painting and Modelling Adventures

Names to consider:

- Wicked Serpent
- Downfall of Eve
- Eden Castaway
- Slithering Apostate

Anyway, this is awesome! Digging the Gothic vibes.

Another ship! This makes me so happy :<3:
Very 40k, instantly recognizable. Looking forward to see how you will stat that gun, drawing power from other systems etc. Great job.

You know, you could just go with the easy, edgy option and call the Light Destroyer Destroyer of Light.

EDIT: I googled for ship vs boat on google images and found this, I'm sure all the brikwarriors on here are aware of this stuff already but for a simpleton like me it was something interesting and new that I didn't know before.
