@Conjurer -- they have. Xcal hasn't felt bothered enough yet. ;-) Back in the day, this was my favorite CV in the Shop. Now, sadly, like dropping 2mil on a Model A you'll just keep in a garage... (cough.cough.hint.hint)

Thanks Conjurer! Very nice of you to say. I'm sure I will make something comparable in time :)

I am shocked that nobody has made another ship like this. It is so functional and amazing. I have started updating this on my own, but not any kind of major rebuild. I add doors popping out of the elevators on the bottoms, put in a shield, take out containers and add controllers. Take the one room off the right side and fill it with fuel tanks and block it off. Just shocked that you haven't really made any ships like it either. I love all of your work, but this one has to top them all, hands down. I am all for the pretty ships, but really like functionality over extra space filled with worthless items. To sum up. This ship is AWESOME and you should update it to be AWESOMER :) Keep up the good work my friend, and catch you in the warp.

This is a Legacy build amd doesnt work with current patch

There is no need for a lot of RSU, a waste of resources.

super vaisseau - vive une mise jour

I find its size interesting and we can use it alone, these options and features make it a ship that makes you want to be played ;-). I encourage you to update it if you can do it :-)

Ive been toying with the idea of updating it

Thanks for the reply, I am disappointed for this job if it is lost with the update ... pff

Starts with [LEGACY] as its not compatable with current patch

Hello , i can't see it in my blue print list ?? i can't take it ! what 's name in the list (sorry for my inglesh... i'm french)

Would there be a way to put those mining drills behind some hanger doors for added protection.

someone called goldwing has republished this as his own ship with a different paint job. Can't see anything else he's changed

Thanks Pixel :)

You have some of the coolest designs man.

still waiting to see that pill CV get uploaded with drills on ;)

Thanks Fluffy. Got some good stuff planned

you need a ship just like this but with slightly less armour to account for shield protection. Fantastic ship for busting the tougher orbtial POIs

I do plan to update this. Currently Working on Kydex mkII

are their any plans to update this for alpha 9? also have been wondering if theirs a space station/base that this thing can land on without issue.

That’s awesome Boomer! Always good to hear what people do with my builds to suit their needs

I really like this one, thanks for making and sharing it. I play with weight/volume off, so bringing it in to 9.4 was easy. I have made several CVs from scratch, but they end up looking odd, so this time I decided to start with something close to matching my play style, and modify from there. I like a mobile base, and move from planet to planet taking everything with me (which is why I play with weight/volume off). I added drop down boarding ramps to the bottom of two of the elevators, rearranged the cargo containers with controllers and such, added two large farms to the hanger deck (It had too much space for my needs), dropped it down to level 15 by replacing some turrets and the repair block, added a whole bunch of fuel tanks, 2 wireless connectors, and some more food processors. Now I just have to clean up some details with the sensors and it will be perfect.

Note this hasn’t been optimized for weight volume and as it’s a heavily armored pvp CV it won’t last long efficiency wise on planet. Stay tuned for alpha 9 CV builds coming soon :)

There’s 2 power systems installed and the max one is OP. There’s a signal toggle you have to use to auto switch between the 2 that turns off one set and activated another.

Turn max thrust off

i like this build but i am sorry to say this CV just isn't practical, the power useage on it is Extreme to the fact at a 40% battery you get 10m of flight time.

no worries :) Hope you enjoy

cheers i was missing a lift out when searching

Upstairs above the bridge

love the ship but where is the growing plots? it took 72 plots to build but i can`t seem to find them

Ahhh thats Roguth ozki...I do have a smaller version of this That I created for Multiplayer. Havent Released it yet though. Msg me and we can discuss

Great Ship. I love it. Was looking so long time for it and found finally. But my happiness last short :( Offical EU server doesn't allow this blueprint size :( I love your all collection and made already most of them. Anyway, congrats for a great job.

Thanks Major!

Nicely done indeed.

Thanks Holygoober! Hope it serves well

Well ... I found my new CV i'm going to build. This thing is awesome!

Thanks Reg! I like your suggestions. I really wish we could dock CV to CV then I could just make a separate miner on top

I've recently spawned this ship and I must say I'm very impressed. A nice open plan inside, very much a Tardis style. The fit-out is logical and easy to access.

However I've just used it for mining using the Drill Turrets. It is very difficult to use because of the inability to see the laser stream. Also the distance between the left and right is so great that you can be mining sought materials on one side while mining crushed stone on the other. I got around this in some degree by using the outside view, but this was very hit and miss when close to other asteroids. I'd suggest placing the drill turrets next to and on top of each other so that just one area of an asteroid is mined at any one time. Perhaps placing a marker on the outer hull above where the drill turrets may solve the visual accuracy issue.

Other than that, it's an excellent ship.

Awesome JetWylie I’m glad you’re getting some function out of em! Friend me up and shownme your ships!

Hi Xcaliber, I just wanted to write this review to let you know how amazing your ships are! I play heavily in pvp and I just love using your SV's.This ship is just amazing and exactly what i was looking for in a carrier. I can fit 4-6 of your HV's and 4 of your SV's in it for base raiding. I primarily build CV's and cant be bothered with faffing around with SV's and HV's.

It is definatley a warp out if in trouble ship, but what isn't these days that's not meta? I love your style and flair mate, you mix practicality with funcionality like me.

I also build pvp ships that look great and are functional, they are however meta and thrusters aren't exposed. Long story short, I'd like to share my ebp of my pvp CV with you that's only lost one fight so far. Can you let me know how I can share this with you? I would love to get your feedback, but it's just between you and me because I still fight with this ship. Thanks brother!

For SV cargo like Dropbox 1x1 by Seven

What's the SV Cargo Container spots on the port and starboard side?

Thanks Arisaema, this is true and I did compensate for that. Remember this is a very heavily armored drop ship. Not meant for direct assault. The -Katana- blade is better for that :)

Looks great! I'll have to try it out in PVP soon

One thing I've noticed about the retractible turrets is that the HP is the same for both types. So if you are embedding a retractible turret onto a space you could end up with breaches unless you have additional armor underneath that turret space.

Thanks Balcoran and Dampback. Yes it’s quite blockish as it’s mainly hangar and heavily layered with armor. I actually had a version that was twice the length and resembled the Kydex but it was size class 15

It is a bit blockish but so are cars from the 90s lol
id say this is more about function than looks/areodynamics
xcaliber... damn you, my BP list is full of your creations
Keep up the good work, rated up

Its a block...

Thanks Cupido!

Wow!
I love it!
Again a great Job XCaliber

Thanks ironwitch!
