SHIP BUILDING CONTEST II - AGILE FLYER V

AGILE FLYER V - Mixed Weapons Scout - Edited Version
ARMOR 25
WING WEAPONS - GSELFB-1B (3 DMG each; Mass 2x4; Crew 2x6)
CENTER WEAPON - GSEFW-6 (6 DMG; Mass 20; Crew 18)
NO SHIELDS
ENGINES - GSEFHD-2x2 (Total Power 16; Mass 24; Crew 52)
SCANNERS - GSES-2 - Range 10; Mass 5; Crew 6)
ARMOR LVL 3
Total Mass 87 Crew 88

Engines limited to 16 Power so heavier Weapons Loadout is possible
1- Power cause of Center Missile Weapon = 15 power

Basically a Heavy Weapons Platform with all Front Weapons - Laser Weapons choosen with regard to close range effectiveness. Flyer should be able to close the distance so no range needed.

-Not sure what LFB-1B is, but 3 damage beams would be LB-3, 3A, and 4

 

Agile Flyer TYPE V
Engine: GSEFHD-1Ax2 Crew 52 WT 24
Power 15
Weapons: GSEHLB-2 1F Crew 25 WT 25
Weapons: GSELB-1 x2 2F Crew 8 WT 4
Sensors: GSES-2 (range10) Crew 6 WT 5
Armor Level 0
3 marine pods
---------------------------------------------------
Total Crew 91 WT 58+30=88
Hull: 19 (armor level 0)

I made a ship that has a heavy laser beam in the middle but still two more lasers, and marine pods, so its pretty powerful.

-Another heavy firepower ship, with troops as bonus -Vesuvius

 

Agile Flyer 5
Engines: GSEFHD-3 x 2 =60 Crew 32 Tons / Power 20 -1 =19
Scanner: GSES-2 = 6 Crew 5 Tons
Weapons: GSEFW-6 18 Crew 20 Tons, 7 Damage
GSELB-3 9 Crew 10 Tons, 4 Damage
Armor Level 2
No pod
-------------------------------------------------------
Totals; 93 Crew 87 Tons, 23 Hull

A fast and tough ship that has more damage output than any other Agile Flyer. Sacrifices marine pods.

-A fast missile launcher, aka a fast Bengbu V -Vesuvius

 

woo I really havent played genari so I'm not familiar with its ships and I missed the last one so I'll wait for the next

 

Agile flyer V marine assault vessel
Engines: GSEFHD-1A x2 = 52 crew 24 tons 15 power
scanner: GSES-4 = 15 crew 20 tons 14 range
shields: GSEFF4 = 14 crew 13 tons
Weapons: GSELB-1 = 12 crew 6 tons
Armor level 0 with 3 marine pods 30 tons
Total: 93 crew, 93 tons
Designed to find ships and put marines on them, the vacuum pounders demanded a quick assault vessel to find and board enemy ships. The weapons are more to test for shields than to cause damage.

-Very weak firepower, more pods than any agile flyer however -Vesuvius

 

More damage lasers

Agile Flyer TYPE V
Engine: GSEFHD-2x2 Crew 52 WT 24
Power 16
Weapons: GSELB-5 x3 3F Crew 45 WT 45
Sensors: GSES-2 (range10) Crew 6 WT 5
Armor Level 3
---------------------------------------------------
Total Crew 103 WT 104
Hull: 25

-You went off parameters, you cannot have more than 93 crew, 94 wt -Vesuvius

 

So you can't have more than 3 marine pods?

-Max pods for any corvette class (3) is 3 pods -Vesuvius

 

Agile Flyer V (space superiority corvette)
Engine: GSEHFD-3 x2 crew=60 mass=32 power output=20
weapons:
center: GSEFW-3 crew 9 mass=10 damage=4
wings: GSELB-1a x2 crew 10 mass=6 damage=1
no shields
scanner: ES-2 Crew=4, mass=3
armor level 1

crew total:83
mass total:78
engine :19
Hull:21
marine pods:2
max consistent damage with modifiers:14
consistent movement with no modifier:28.5
consistent movement with max damage:22.5

you gotta be fast if you want to properly be the most "agile" of flyers. it is unfortunate the missile takes away 1 engine from that otherwise wholesome 20.
i had the option of slapping LB-1b for the option of 4 more max damage, but i be doing newbies a favor by not having them stumble in the "charge all guns to max" pit fall and not be the most "agile" of flyers. 14 damage is the right amount of damage since max repair is 12. it allows the players to set up for the kill via rally. of course you can overload with this build and it add an additional 12 damage to the 14, making it 26, but that needs a lot of work to get there. but it would make short work of heavier armored bengu variants.

-Similar to Baalrog's ship but with more maneuverability -Vesuvius

 

@NightWolf - The same question arose in my mind. Maximum 3 Marine Pods (shown by the three Ms hardpoints on the Agile Flyer Chassis) and the description of the Hull - Armor Level 0. Confirmed on Off-Topic chat. If not mistaken, Marine Pods add 10 weight/0 crew per pod.
@Pendragon - Could be an excellent time to learn the true power of Genari and what the Matriachs have awaiting Sol Fleets.

@lefty Here is a chance to design and submit a Genari ship to the Ship Building Contest.
@Kahless @Zer0CoolAZ @Tesseract @Locke @AmishJoe @Doc @Decimus @0b1000010 @Hexxx @Ttt

 

Agile Flyer V defensive variant, as we know its sometimes nicknamed Fragile Flyer! So here's one with shields & max armor.

Engine: GSEFHD-2 x2, 52 Crew, 24 Weight, 16 Power
Shields: GSEFF-3 12 crew, 10 wt (3 power shield)
Scanners: GSES-2, 6 Crew, 5 Weight, 10 Range
Weapons: GSELB-2A x2 21 Crew, 21 Weight, 6 Damage
Armor Level 3- 30 Weight, 25 Hull, 0 Marines Pods

Total Crew: 91
Total Weight: 90
Total Hull: 25
Total Power: 16

-The most defensive variant so far, good for AI fleet commander ships. -Vesuvius

 

Hope I'm not too late to submit my design!
Agile Flyer V Design: Engines: 2 GSEFD-5 (10 Mass, 40 Crew, 10 power) , Weapons: 2*GSEFW-6 (40 Mass, 36 Crew), 1*GSEFW-4 (12 Mass, 10 Crew), Shields:None, Scanners: GSES-2 (5 Mass, 6 Crew) Total: 67 Mass, 92 Crew, 10 Power. I call it the "Oppressor". It's a heavy missile variant with weaker engines to counterbalance increased damage output.(Sorry if it's messy, my "Return" Key is broken)(Also feel free to correct any errors, I only saw this like 20 minutes ago)

-Hey Decimus, unfortunately you can only have one missile hardpoint, the center one, the others have to be laser - Vesuvius

Alright, I just fixed my return key (I'm so very proud of myself, feel free to ask so I can show off my below-average computer skills)
Ok, Imma just put the biggest one I can on it.
Same engines, shields, scanners.
Weapons: 1* GSEFW-10 (45 crew, 50 mass)
Total = 65 Mass, 91 Crew, 10 Power

 

This reminds me of character creation in many tabletop games. In a lot of ways, its the most fun part of the game and it says a lot about the player. I see my rant on overload have paid off since lots of designs want the "Big Missile". If the star warrior ever get a contest, i hope people take into consideration "targeting" exist and is hardly used.

 

If i am not mistaken "targeting" only works for one round and is broken cause it cant be reactivated.

Hard to test actually.

-It is supposed to only work one round, just like other active skills -Vesuvius

 

Its suppose to be active allocation exactly like overload. only once. the supposed purpose is to outspeed the enemy and shutdown their weapons. this carry the risk of getting counter fired. the other purpose of targeting is to reduce the effectiveness of a ship's repair by forcing them to repair their weapons or you get a round without retaliation from them. this is the more practical use for it and you only need one round of this.

-Correct, and the more weapons you have, the more enemy weapons you can shut down. Great for assault ships. -Vesuvius

also, hmmmmm, what is this? who won?
