This thing looks like enemies would tremble at the sight of it! Loving the aesthetics and it leaves nothing to be desired in any aspect 🤙 will be building this in the future!
@@delindsay - I built this last night, and it's a very nice ship! I swapped the position of the Battle Stations and the Captain's Quarters. This way, I don't come out of the bridge and directly into a conference table. It makes for easier movement.
My version of this ship I call the Final Frontier, it is mostly StroudEk, with the unique hab from the frontier. 8 turrets, 6 vanguard obliteraters, 21k cargo, low mobilty, but 28ly jump. My starfighter is a Razorleaf rebuild, 180spd, 100mobility, 30ly, 1100cargo.
Nice build once again! I love placing the battle station directly behind the bridge as you did here. I do that on pretty much all of my builds, as it makes the most sense from an RP perspective. Deimos has some really awesome habs. I love the 2x2 engineering hab but the garbage drives me insane, so I always put a door entrance at the end there to eliminate it. I put the captains quarter in the exact same place you did because thats the perfect entrance point for a Deimos one. Would have liked to see you use a 3x1 living quarters cuz they make a really nice unique one as im quite sure you already know. I also like their 3x1 engineer bay B also. Thanks for the upload, always look forward to em!
For sure, they have the BEST 3x1 Living Quarters of all, but length would've been and issue then as this Ship clocks in at 39m as it is. Or, had I done that, I'd have had a basically flat square rear which always bugs me. I'm the same on the garbage in the 2x2 Eng Bay, such an odd design choice by BGS.
Very cool ship, makes me remember the Crimson Banshee, forgot it's name as a Deimos, but I remember it have a Japanese named one which I often find in Paradiso. Your ship looks like a stronger/newer version of that ship in a way, I think that's very nice. I used the Banshee for quite a while, really like this shape because, specially when you land, it is so cool to see everything from the ship bridge, that really is my favourite bridge so far, would love to see a similar version from each manufacturer. Actually, maybe my dream bridge would be a double deck version of the Ares, like the Nova Galatic one, but with full crew stations like the Viking bridge from Stroud, mixing my 3 favourites into one, hahahaha. I just find it funny how the Ares bridge gives 8 crew slots but only have to pilot seats and the navigation console, with a bunch of jump seats...Turrets do make sense in a ship this big, but I don't actually use it, only on very low mobility ships. Honestly, the ship looks so easy to navigate inside, mine often have at least 2 floors, so it can get a bit confusing, really hope the devs give us the hability to chose the placement for stairs and doors, that's the one thing that prevents us from buiding some stuff properly.
Man, I'd kill for the option to chose in the Builder where Doors/Ladders go (and don't) but it seems like we'll have to wait until Modders get their hand on the Geck or w/e BGS is calling the Creation Club this time.
@@delindsayI have found a way to prevent ladders from being placed in certain spots. However, it will not cause a ladder to appear elsewhere. So this method only works for preventing ladder's from being placed between the two layers of the Cabot bridge. Or in a weird niche case where two floors are connected via two different ladders and removing one of those ladders would still allow full access. What you need to do is place a ceiling / floor window between the two layers where the ladder would usually spawn. Then you have to use a glitch build technique in order to snap the hab over the window. Only one window is required, however if you place just one the side that the windows attached to will be able to see into the other have, but the other have won't be able to see into it. If you want neither have to have visible sight between them, just place two windows, one attached to the ceiling of the lower hab and one attached to the floor of the higher hab.
@@delindsay Weird! I did it last night, no mods, on my PC. Xbox Cross play, not steam. I'll have to try it on my steam version to see if that happens to make a difference. I saw a video of someone about blocking ladders and doors, turns out they were using a mod to force doors and they were using the window trick to block ladder's and doors. I was disappointed as the video title didn't say modded, but, I decided to see if the window blocking trick was default gameplay functionality or part of their mod. It turned out it was default gameplay functionality and I was pretty excited. Let me know if you are on Steam or Xbox version. I'll test my steam version when I get a chance as well as test my Xbox version on my series X to make sure those don't affect the outcome!
@@GarrettBShaw I'm on Steam but I'll give it more attempts to see if I can reliably get it to work, then if I can I'll make a video to show others how to replicate it.
Thank you for this template. I admit I swapped most of the Deimos part for Nova Galactic, mostly because I have several ships using Deimos and not really any using NG.
20:53 Deimos Hull A - Mass 5 - Hull *0* It irks me so much that none of the cosmetic pieces do anything to armor your ship or make it stronger in any way, even if only slightly. edit - It also irks me that those large Nova radiators can't be flipped because of that little notched corner. I was about to put them on a ship once and when I realized that, it just completely killed my desire to use them. Had to redo the whole design as a result.
I absolutely love this ship design! Great looking ship…And NO LADDERS😍. I’ve built my first ship recently, then the ng+ happened😩. Can’t wait to build this. Would 660K be enough to build this? Keep up the great work. You deserve way more subs.🙃
660K is more than enough, even from scratch. I recently updated this to tweak just a little more out of it, adding ~$78K to the cost, and I estimate it's still no more than ~$475K. That's with 4/4 Commerce to lower costs. I'll do a short update video soon.
@@delindsay Okay, cool. I have more than enough credits to burn now, well over a Million I’m good to go.😂 I’ll be building this tomorrow, hopefully my outpost ship builder doesn’t bug out again.
@delindsay I was just getting ready to build this ship. Because I love the design...until I saw you say you're gonna post a update video so i'm gonna wait for that.
@@rwill2k My bad, I'll get on that and have it up shortly. The update isn't huge and adds a little cost but I based the changes off comments on this video and I think it's an improvement over my original design.
Nice build! Have you considered swapping the fuel tank and the grav drive around? The fuel tank and reactor have similar shapes that might make it look a bit more symmetrical on top, and - with it being hidden away - it could also allow for the B-class grav drive to fit in if you wanted to.
I definitely agree with your choice to use the Nova Radiators, adds a nice touch and looks way better than the Deimos piece, I just wish the paint jobs would show up a bit more on them, but still, perfect fit for that spot. Another thing to point about choosing the cheaper bridge aside from the tiny amount of extra cargo you'd get with the more expensive one, is the more expensive one also adds more mass - not a lot, but I've had builds where I've pushed the mass limit to the point where adding something with just 1 mass - like a porthole for example would lick your jump range down a notch so it all adds up. I see what you mean though when you say the challenge is coming up with something truly unique - didn't realize I'd used the same side wing configuration on my Razorgrief as you have here , but I guess there's only so many configurations you can do with them. Can I ask what level your character is for this build? Do you have points in Astrodynamics? If not, that will give you a bit more bang for your buck with the Grav Drive. Nice build all up, sorry it's taken me so long to have a look - and I still need to check out a couple of your other builds, but I will when I get the chance.
I kinda have an Idea for a ship (don't have the game or something that could play it though) from watching videos about the game the main shape would be 3 wide, 3 tall & either 7 or 8 depending on how long some parts are. it's kinda a tube does have a ladder kinda in the center. so lvl 1 landing bay to med bay, to 1x1(with bottom docker) to workshop kinda a strait line, lvl 2 double floor bridge, the mess hall, 1x1, crew area anything that fits in like 3x3 area, lvl 3 top of bridge, a computer area & command center (basically crew job places), 1x1, captain's quarters. that's the inside area adding what ever landing gear, engine, jump drive, fuel, thrusters, storage but the 1x1's have a space to the left and right there could be for the engine, jump drive and fuel keeping it kinda in a 3x3 space then after ward adding what ever cosmetic stuff to make it look better (it'll kinda look like a RV/motorhome) my idea is next to the 1st level add storage and also next to the captain's quarters, also if there's space maybe a 1x1 on top with windows on the 5 sides not attached to the rest of the ship (so have the stack of 1x1's be 4 tall instead of 3) & it'll have whatever for guns/shields. basically making the ship a home that you fly with. (edit: forgot about the docker so added it in)
@@delindsay well I watched the videos about the different habs, just not sure about the outside of the ship since what I was thinking it would end up kinda like a box plus not sure how long a ship could be, but thinking of the habs kinda like lego blocks helps picture it
A note about those dead-end rooms nobody cares about, Stroud makes a port and starboard storage room that... is limited on entrances, they will not connect on either the left or right depending on which you chose. Can you make it work somehow ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ? IK haven't messed with them yet but they are a thing.
@@delindsay ah well yeah, I realize that, was jus a general observation. I have the bug where you can't mod at your outpost because weapon assignment becomes a critical error so it's not like testing things for me is all that conducive. It's such a pain.
Intake? They make combustion in a vacuum so maybe LOX, but not an intake for air. Maybe dark matter intake? SpaceX uses kerosene or methane and LOX and no intakes are needed.
You're other comment won't let me see it nor reply, about the MEV's. Aren't those Laser? I always use Particle because that's what I have all my points into, but certainly feel free to use whichever Weapon loadout suits your Character.
@@delindsay That's weird, because I no longer see it either. Even my reply about the MEV's is not showing where I responded to this thread. The MEV's are all PB. Have you looked at the inara database?
@@MaddogMike-444 I have not but I'm looking now. So, interstingly, those aren't for sale at our Outpost (where I do most of my building) which is why I didn't usually see them. Nor are they for sale at Deimos, where I built this Ship, I found them at Stroud Eklund. That said, they are indeed higher DPS so I dropped the Class-B Turrets. The other (2) 250's are inferior to the PB0-300's so I'm keeping those. The other issue is price as those Turrets are stupidly expensive. I get enough flack on my builds for being so expensive while using the Vanguard Oblits so I'm trying to make a concerted effort to keep costs down while still doing "all the things".
@delindsay yea I burn money in this game. Depending on how long I'm willing to sit and sell is directly affecting the bank account. But I don't build ships for content, just myself and with about 3 million credits in the bank, I can splurge. I'm not that interested in NG+ because they take it all away.
Nice design. Don't care if it's "basic" or not. You didn't do all 1x1 habs, so I wouldn't call it basic. You also stuck to one manufacturer (Deimos) so this will be fairly easy to replicate (just go to Deimos star yard and build there). As far as layout, I might change the captain's quarters to a Nova Galactic. Also, I'd really like to have an armory (always try to have one on every ship to store the "special" guns), but I'm not sure which one would work here (placement might have doors removing lots of racks and boxes). Over all, nice design.
Interestingly enough, I've already changed things to suit MY tastes, since I don't care much for Deimos Habs. I'm going to make a short update video for those who wish to see it completed with my tastes/aesthetics and noting that it costs ~$120K more than this build so ~$475 or so.
Oooh. Snazzy. Aside from all those Hopetech radiators. ;) I was happy to see engines other than the SAL-6830s (decided to not bypass the main quest in my first NG+ so I lost them and have to do Walter's Quest again.) but those DT2XX engines are energy hungry and the side only snaps are a pain! Also lost my favorite particle beams since I'm no longer Vanguard. Again, the Obliterators are energy hungry. I noticed no missiles, which I never use either as my PBs melt the enemy before the missiles lock on anyway. Also, I'm bad in whittling down on habs cause I feel that my crew should have comfy beds too! Also, do Starborn still need sleep? LOL One question I have if you knew about it and tried it but it's the enemy ship AI target the center of mass of your ship when they fire, but if there is no actual ship there, you don't receive damage. Shape means nothing in space, so an Escher-esque ship with a hollow middle should receive no damage. Your thoughts/experience?
I do know about the center mass thing, just haven't built a ship yet with a big 'ol whole in the middle to test it out. But, that could be a cool project for sure.
Strangely enough Ship Turrets not attacking any targets is the worst bug I've encountered and not fix seems to work unfortunately, they did work have a turretted Rocinate build that was awesome then poof sorry Capt we are on strike
I've had it happen once for sure and maybe 1-2 other times where it didn't appear like they were firing. That said, most of the time mine will start firing before I even have control over the Ship after exiting Warp or leaving a Planet manually.
While I can't say for certain as there's no known website that lists everything's level requirements, I believe 62. That said, you can built all of it with equipment that's available at lower levels 1st, then upgrade as your Character reaches each level milestone. For example, just 2 banks of Weapons will still do crazy damage but you could get away with a much lower powered Reactor that's available at a much lower level. The Grav Drive is available fairly early on but it's the Shield and Reactor that will be the higher levels. that said, you could even use a lower Shield, like the Class B Vanguard that's 1450 instead of this Class C that's 1600. There are certainly ways around high level requirements for certain Equipment in build you see that you like and want to replicate at a lower character level, or even lower cost.
This thing looks like enemies would tremble at the sight of it! Loving the aesthetics and it leaves nothing to be desired in any aspect 🤙 will be building this in the future!

I've had it happen once for sure and maybe 1-2 other times where it didn't appear like they were firing. That said, most of the time mine will start firing before I even have control over the Ship after exiting Warp or leaving a Planet manually.
What level do you have to be to build this ship?
While I can't say for certain as there's no known website that lists everything's level requirements, I believe 62. That said, you can built all of it with equipment that's available at lower levels 1st, then upgrade as your Character reaches each level milestone.
For example, just 2 banks of Weapons will still do crazy damage but you could get away with a much lower powered Reactor that's available at a much lower level. The Grav Drive is available fairly early on but it's the Shield and Reactor that will be the higher levels. that said, you could even use a lower Shield, like the Class B Vanguard that's 1450 instead of this Class C that's 1600.
There are certainly ways around high level requirements for certain Equipment in build you see that you like and want to replicate at a lower character level, or even lower cost.
Love the build, but no respect for anyone who uses auto turrets… u suck at video games if you use auto anything
No insult taken, Auto Turrets are P2W basically.
