*UPDATE* Thanks to @Trig for the world save file! Make sure to check it out! Might be a few missing but we'll get them added soon. *UPDATE* So I have decided that voting isn't going to happen for this build challenge. We might do this during later challenges. But we'll compile all the builds into a themed collection to feature everyones hard work! Thank you everyone! *UPDATE2* I have added the Challenge Collection! Be sure to hop over to it for ease of finding everyones creations! While the voting is going on for the First Challenge, I wanted to go ahead and put up the next challenge for you all! Also let me just take the time to thank each and everyone of you for participating in the first challenge! It was a massive success but only because this community has come together and made it that way. Listen, we all love playing Empyrion, but with so many other Space survival games out and looming we need to find ways to help us stand out! I believe its the communities that really launch a game into greatness. So I just wanted to extend my thanks and gratitude to everyone. Ok I'll be quiet now and bring on the Challenge! Please read the above and if any questions or clarity issues, I will do my best to quickly answer and address them. Thank you! *Also if you do not want to participate but want to be involved, I could always use some help in these following areas: -verifying that builds adhere to the ruleset above. -a world save with all the entries lined up, like from the first challenge.

Ohh man, this sounds like a fun one. I mean the first challenge was fun, but tank HV's are where its at, with two turn tables and a microphone! I might get started tonight. Love me some tank HV!!! Keep in mind all. Those are the MAX dimensions, you DO NOT have to build an HV that big. I know I am not. It just needs to fit in that space.
I've been waiting forever for this Challenge to start, then it turns out it started 6 hours ago!!? How in the Halibut did this happen... & why was there no Link to this Challenge in the SV Challenge Thread!!? *Scrams to begin Build*
Its because the mods have to "ok" threads in this area, probably because of bots and spammers. The thread has only been visible for a short time.
Still don't get it on that honestly when Jenn's an Established Member with over a hundred Post Count.
NNNNIIIIICEEEE!!! Loves me some HV sexiness! Yes! Who doesn't love a good HV? I mean really... I am all sorts of excited now. *peruses info* Wait a sec... only one entry per person...? Booooooo... Ah well. Probably for the best; I do like making HV's.
Meh, Quality over Quantity. Edit: Rule Question: Rules say at least 3 different types of Weapons... for this purpose do Gatling Guns & Minigun Turrets count as different Weapons even though they share an Ammo?
This should be interesting.... have started already... 1 fridge+1 armor+1cargo box per seat might be funny. Seating for 56+(2+2) anyone?
I must confess, this is calling for a bigger "tank" than anything I have built before. A mini-tank is much easier to do, but I am supposed to have armor station, storage, etc for the passengers? None of my little wonders have room for such extras, so I had to start on my biggest tank concept. Yes, I had one sketched but no blueprint. Now I am finding the flaws in the initial design. As I said, I think the mini-tanks are easier. Sure, I have only posted one on the workshop, but this will actually be my third in the game.
Just have to think on the epic scale... I am pretty sure the developers would have a cow if you loaded up the one I am working on with actual people. The game probably wouldn't handle it at this time.
Or a APC from Hell. For the Topic: Totally liking this Challenge more then the last one. My Build for this Challenge feels like it's going well thus far. If my Entry for this Contest goes well, I may well seriously consider thinking on a much bigger grander scale on my next Hover War Tank build.
Does it still count as 'Airtight' if there is no interior but no-one in the vehicle is exposed in-flight?
These are BIG TANKS you will get there I don't build this huge... normally, but as a contrast to your first challenge... well done new challenge! (There were really nice SV-Vessels in the first Challenge!) edit: Submission removed as per request
I ended up getting the details from the discord post and did some preliminary shaping design last night. I started with a cube outline to give me an idea of the size, then found the center of that and went from there. First time I've used the large hover pads ^^
