Not an entry (does not qualify/Dimensions) After looking over all the great entries I decided to take a different approach and see if I could do better, I failed... kinda. Ugly as it is I love what I came up with. the dimensions did not meet the challenge, but it only exists thanks to some ideas I got from this challenge and thread. Thanks for the idea to build from inside out. Welcome to check it out, feedback and criticism welcome there http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1325345872
Right, I'm going with the MT-866 for the challenge - http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1325469631
i busted the dimensions, too. Although its only 4 blocks, i see me unable to change her "that much". All other requirements are met. 2 cockpits 6 Passenger/Gunner 8 armourlocker, fridges, cargoboxes 4 Weapontyps in 9 turrets 6 ammoboxes 1 constructor 1 O2-Station Havn't found a good name jet: more pics: She will get a few finishings till tomorrow and will be uploaded then. edit: And yeah the design shifted a bit from my Rigger. But i see i as an evolution.
Currently working on my entry to the challenge: The hover is based on an concept inspired by the old middle age battle ships. The tank has two pilot seats (march and battle seat) and 4 gunner seats. There is the maximum number of weapons installed ... all aiming to one direction. Just do a drive by ...
Oh wow, thanks. Sadly i have to few time for that. But i can promise to continue to build and post about it.
After seeing so many great entries to be given to the community, I felt I owed the talent here a better offering than a modified old PvP design. I am withdrawing my entry of the Merkava II and submitting a full reimagining of an old build of mine from 3.0 long removed from the workshop incorporating new skills. It may not be the best among the competition, it is true to my style in building without having to make a shiney PvP brick. Hope you all get a chance to try it out. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1325710439
Some great looking HV's! Seems like maybe we should had extended the time just a tad. This challenge is a bit more demanding than the first, at least size wise. I still have a bit to finish on mine as well. I did finish the interior section. Only the Cockpit needs completed, Performance and turret modes set up then photo time and upload! So excited to get all these builds in a world next to each other!
What a messed up week, but I digress... Here is my retro build, not sure I like it but here it is looking kind of Wagoneer-ish. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1325948065
A word of warning: I've long since found out the hard way that Manual Fire Weapons, Drills, & Harvesters, all fail to function if Installed in a non-Forward direction... so sadly ya can't pull off things like sideways Gatlings for 'Strafing Broadsides'. Fortunately for me i'm a Frontal Assault kinda dude... but those who like the Broadside form of Combat get awful shafted by this. I totally dig it, it's like a Naval Gunship! Hmm... the way ya placed those Gatlings... if ya shot something real close to ya I wonder if the Gatlings would try to Gimball their fire onto the Target but accidentally catch those front protruding parts of the HV in Friendly Fire by mistake...? Or did ya already check for this & find it to be safe?
Look a little closer in the pictures boss, they have it covered. I had thought the same till I took a Closer look.
It seems i was to tiered yesterday, today i found a somewhat pleasing way to get rid of the 4 wideblocks. So i can put her on sale for the challenge Dimensions (WxHxD): 25x13x40 SizeClass: 4 2 cockpits 6 Passenger/Gunner 8 armourlocker, fridges, cargoboxes 4 Weapontyps in 9 turrets 6 ammoboxes 1 constructor 1 O2-Station 18+ hr Fuel Standby http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1326712515 more Pictures are in the Workshop-Link The name "Marauder" is a working title. If someone has a good one for her i would pleased to change it.
Gorman-X is completed! Check it out on the workshop! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1326744182
I present to you here: The T4-Python! (I'm not good with names, I know.) http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1326782227
Oh... so it was pulled off by seriously violating the Width Measurement of the Challenge... Oh for shame...
My entry to the challenge: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1325714428 New concept inspired by the old middle age battle ships and new age gunships like the ac-130. The tank has two pilot seats (march and battle seat) and 4 gunner seats. There is the maximum number of weapons installed: 6 gatlin guns 6 minigun turrets 4 rocket turrets 4 plasma turrets 1 artillery turret ... all aiming to one direction. Just do a drive by ... The tank is armored with multiple layers of hardened steel and slat armor.
very cool btw, the blueprint is red to us people still on 7.6.1 (same for Fractalite's) I checked both with prefabinfo command, didn't show any illegal blocks. I'm starting to spawn them in for a worldsave to share
I do Not feel this was a violation. it is still x by y by z. Just a reasonable 'Bork-a-round' with silly limitations on the game... what balance is there in Not allowing broadsides? Kinda seems silly to me. Need to be more flexible if the rules demand it be oriented in one manner. That Stifles creativity, I Doubt Very Much that is @Jenniphurr 's intention.
"Tube or not to be" (TubeOR02B). Experimental build of a HV Tank, need some more work. Should be within the rules. Max weapons. 12 passenger sections with armor, fridge, cargo, constructor. Several pilot seats and cockpits. A lot of space inside to add and rearrange. Easy access to most thrusters and RCS's and so on.
