Thanks to Remethep for making these!
NOTE: The reviews are quite lengthy!
NOTE2: The reviews are mostly up to date, however block models in LWTS changed since then, and are now colorcoded

In LWTS v6.5, a new chat command system has been added, as of now there are 4 commands:
/lwts help - get help about how to use other commands.
/lwts changelog - displays the mod's changelog for versions higher than v6.5.
/lwts wiki - quick access to info about the mod, this includes things that could not fit into the mod's steam page description!
/lwts rating - when aimed at a ship, display's it's approximate tier and LWTS rating based on the blocks used to build it. It's only a cosmetic gadget.

___________________________________

These ships will spawn in the game only if you have Cargo Ships enabled in your world options! NOTE: If you are using Modular Encounters Spawner, you don't need to enable the cargoships setting, MES will handle LWTS spawns
Each tier will be harder to take over, but will pay off with way better loot, with great amounts of Rare and Legendary components, Skin plates, and more!

___________________________________

Sadly, there is not much of a detailed description here (block stats, cost, etc.), that's because of the amount of content this mod introduces. However, soon all blocks will be described in the game with the new context help option.
Note: you can also use the BuildInfo mod to get even more info about new blocks

Basic info needed:
Tiered assemblers can produce items that are equal or lower than their tier. The only exception is Assembler Motors - these are special components and can be built 1+(AssemblerTier)
So, a tier 2 assembler can produce tier 3 Assembler Motors, and any other tier 2 components
Tier 3 can produce Tier 3 and Tier 2 stuff as well, also can build tier 4 Assembler Motors and additionally alloy plates
Etc. etc.

Rare (Tier 6) and Legendary (Tier 7) components can be obtained only by looting cargoships and unkown signal containers
