I already discovered that, but mkII will have a reloadable RCS tank in the cargo bay, as it takes so many thruster blocks to give something that size a decent handling under the speeds it can reach.

More Ships
EDIT: Added some stuff to descriptions.


Dracon-Class Cruiser
Spoiler:
The Dracon-Class is the one and only refinery ship currently in use by our Kerbin shipyards. It is unarmed.
Spoiler:
Image

Halifax-Class Dreadnought
Spoiler:
The Halifax-Class is currently the largest ship in the fleet and is arguably the best armed. Despite its size, the Halifax-Class is the fastest ship of its size range, rivaled only by the Dracon-Class, due to its four engines. The only LLL ship of this class currently is the LLSV - In Memory of Daynel, the Southern Empire has a Halifax-Class as well, however the name of their ship is unknown however it is known to be in Low Laythe Orbit. The LLSV - In Memory of Daynel was named in honor of Daynel Kerman who gave his life in the Battle of Laythe. Daynel Kerman was the captain of the LLSV - Vulture which was destroyed in the early stages of the conflict.
Armaments:
4x Devastator Railguns

Uhurah-Class Corvette
Spoiler:
The Uhurah-Class is a tanker and is able to carry more kethane than any other ship so far. It is unarmed.

Suestra-Type Mining Base
Spoiler:
The Suestra-Type is a kethane mining base and is the only craft employed by the LLL that is capable of mining kethane. It is unarmed.
Spoiler:

Archemides-Class Corvette
Spoiler:
The Archemides-Class is primarily a communications ship that relays commands throughout the fleet. It is secondarily an infiltration craft/listening post. It is unarmed.

EDIT: Moar

Usurper-Class Atmos/Space FIghter
Spoiler:
The Usurper-Class was LLL's first try at a fighter, and was to great success. Today, the Usurper is LLL's first choice for atmoshperic fighter craft, but for space superiority, the Daynel-Class Space Superiority Fighter is used. The Usurper-Class is widely used by the Southern Alliance, as the Daynel-Class is largely unavailable.
Armaments:
18x Sparrow Kinetic Missiles
2x Devastator Railguns
Spoiler:

Image

Daynel-Class Space Superiority Fighter
Spoiler:
The Daynel-Class is the LLL's most up-to-date strikecraft in our arsenal and is extensively used to guard potential targets that an escort cannot provide for. The fighter class was named in honor of Daynel Kerman who gave his life in the Battle of Laythe. Daynel Kerman was the captain of the LLSV - Vulture which was destroyed in the early stages of the conflict.
Armaments:
2x Devastator Railguns

So here's some screens of an unarmed Kerrigan-Class Crusier landing on Southern Alliance-controlled Laythe to plant a flag at the final crash site of the LLSV - Vulture and Daynel Kerman.

The Daynel-class fighter looks good, but can it burn marijuana plantages?

Also, what mods are you using to get those square parts?

So I have some new stuff.

BasTek Modular Bases are structures based off of early-Darthon emplaced buildings. Dropped from orbit and deployed by ground teams, the BasTek line comes in all sizes from 2x2m to 254x254m.

Perigrine-Class EAT/Vs

The Perigrin-Class ExoAtmospheric Troop/Vehicle Shuttle is a dropship shuttle capable of flight outside an atmosphere and can be thus deployed from orbit. A Perigrin-Class can safely carry up to 12 troops. Most variants are unarmed.

Nice, that troop transport looks kinda like a streamlined pelican.

That was sort of the idea :tongue:
But anyways, I've started work on another ship that'll probably be some sort of support carrier. It can currently hold 6 Perigrins, but is planned to hold 12 or 18.

Additional Progress. The gaps in the hull are to be filled in as well as the unconnected corridors.

Also, if anyone was wondering, the rough plan for the ship is right here.

I also have another ready when I finish this one.

You got it absolute-xactly.


Also, probably nothing new for a while until I finish my game of Endless Space. Already at turn 242. Guess that's what happens when you stay up until 2:30 the next day :tongue:
