(1/3) > >>

omegaskorpion:
Ikazuchi





Stats:

(stats are just ideas to give idea of the ship personality)

Armor: 900

Health: 900

Balloon health: 1200

max speed: 33.5 m/s

max turn speed: 5.0 deg/s

Mass: 350.000 kg

Acceleration: 1 m/s²

Weapons:
 6 Light guns. 3 on port and starboard.

Engines: Heavy engine is behind the helm on underdeck.
Underdeck has 2 light engines.

Other information

Hull is on underdeck and is midle of the light/turning engines.
Balloon component is on upper deck on front of the ship.
Ship is not big but its long so it can be in trouble in small maps.
(ship design is influensed by old asian ships)


Tactics

Ramming with this ship is good idea since if you ram and manage to turn your ship, you can pulver ships in no time.
Ship is weak to front and back attacks since those sides dont have guns. Also balloon is exposed and weak to lumberjacks and shotguns.
Capten can easily repear the heavy engine since its close to helm. Engineers and gunners should stay on guns since they protect broadsides.

Advantages

+durable
+fast and heavy
+great for ramming
+deadly broadsides

Disadvantages

-slow turning
-blind sides infront and behind
-exposed balloon


(Ship name is idea so it can be changed. [also Ikazuchi mean thunder and japanese Fubuki-class destroyer])

This, 3 parallel light guns is powerful.

I think this ship would end up being used as a weapons platform, like a combo Galleon/Mobula, highly suited to (merc) sniping rather than brawling. Ramming or any head on charge would be a really bad idea with this ship because you'd be unable to get gun arcs as you approached. Generally ships which rely on sideguns are weak at brawling because they are unable to pursue or charge effectively, meaning they can really only brawl defensively.
