[0.23.0f][Ion Cruiser] Cabal of Sol, Sol Ortus by Nick (1,500,000 flat)
Design: Medium — It was surprisingly smooth sailing. In fact when I finished everything on the ship, that being crew management, resource management and the ion core, I still had 25K+ credits remaining, which I then spent on slightly better logistics and another layer of armor. Say it with me, you can never have enough armor. The only real difficulty of this build was the split barrel and the core, which utilized some goofy techniques like the lowered down spinal outputs to make real. Has a pretty bog standard main armament of a 24:6 core and 2 disruptors, on top of the also bog standard 6 full engine rooms, 4 of which have kite thrust on top of orbital thrust and 2 of which have side maneuvering thrust on top of strafe thrust, potentially giving it an upper hand in fights against more maneuverable opponents.
Piloting: Moderate-Hard — Typical ion cruiser piloting, nothing that special but also nothing too simple and mundane. Very versatile and much like most other ion cruisers can do a plethora of different tasks such as ram, kite, intentionally destroy its front armor and become a ship with freely aimable prisms and I even added a feature to detach your side armor if need be.
My first ever fully finished ion cruiser! Quite proud of how it turned out for being basically my first and especially proud of the cabal paint which is my first ever attempt of cabal for a large ship, let alone a competitive one.
As always feel free to use for yourself just be kind and give credit where credit's due :>
