Artemis-class Battlecruiser (Vanilla, Twin Mass Driver Cannons)

Description
The Artemis-class battlecruiser is a specialized capital ship classification in the UNSC Navy. It is best suited to long range combat and support.

History
As the war dragged on, the UNSC finally announced the production and commission of a new warship: the Artemis-class. One of the few ships designed during the conflict, the Artemis-class's appearance on the battlefield proved a valuable one. While slow and lightly armored, it features incredible firepower with two Prototype MACs with a high effective range and heavy damage, well suited to hunting down and taking out large enemy ships.

Armament
2x Mergeball Cannons - 4x Missile Turrets - 2x Gatling Turrets - 2x Interior Defense Turrets

Tactics
The Artemis is a sniper ship, sacrificing strike craft, heavy armor, and most of its missiles for high damage long-ranged cannons. It is best used from just behind the friendly lines, prioritizing bigger capital ships with its high alpha attacks.

Gravcannons: Pressing "1" or "2" or both will load and fire the cannons, as they are operated on timers. SPEED MOD RECOMMENDED!

This ship is 1:10 scale. It is about 90% light armor construction and is not rated for atmosphere.

NOTE: This ship is based on a non-canon design featured in the "Sins of the Prophets" mod for Sins of a Solar Empire.

Cannons have been replaced with my new, more efficient Mergeball guns. Grinders no longer needed.

It was on 2x but now it works.

It should build them, and it will finish grinding them off just as the drivers come on.

What's your weld speed on? I think I forgot to tweak it for normal speed

Why won't the space balls fire, they just get built?

This ship now properly fulfills its role as a sniper ship with a pair of powerful mass driver cannons!

Yes. I really oughta change it, at least on my workshop items. After all, it is based on SOTP material.

Oh, I see know, it was originally the Orion Class but since the introduction of the new Orion Class it got changed to Artemis.

The Artemis is what they call it now since they introduced the Orion-class Assault Carrier, a stupid 343 design. I prefer the old name, although Artemis makes a little more sense since these battlecruisers are made hunt down Covenant ships and fight them from long range. I dunno, the name's just stuck.

I'm a little confused, isn't the Orion Class and the Artemis class two different ships?
