*Glares at Geen*

That's pretty much what it is right now, only better.

[Comp112]

Engines cost Scarcium.

We have none.

That little engine we have is what rotated the harpoon launcher.

Also, did we get that MG? If we did, fit it to the blimp.

(DOUBLE-THICK HULL ARMOR!)

Any size engine cost scarcium eh? Whats the currently blueprints for Hope?

[PyroDesu]

I have a very, very partially done picture, yes.

Here you go, this is what I'm at so far:

Al that white space above the engine but below the armor is a fuel tank.

Should last a while one we get some fuel.

Keep in mind: I'M NOT DONE.

I'm not part of this but if you want farm area why not make it flatter and two floors, then build a dome over the engine area? You could double the hull over the engine dome and mount a weapon on it too? or just use a flat opposing engine configuration to keep the engine low and out of harm, then you have a ton of flat area on top, not to mention if you need you can just store stuff you find on the roof.

I eagerly await your final design so we can make comments, and improve on it.

[PyroDesu]

Feel free to make comments on the current one, just don't say "do it this way".

Argh, I feel like I'm being a little contrary here.

[Comp112]

Im reserving my comments for your 'prototype' design. Id rather not make a comment when you already are putting it in.

[Ehndras]

I'll wait for the complete design.

[PyroDesu]

Does anybody have any qualms about having the harpoon as a fixed forward weapon?

(I'm starting to wonder if we'll have enough metal for this project!)

The Prototype HOPE is here:

HOPE: High Octane Persistent Engine

Side-Mounted for RP purposes, Forward-mounted by image since, well, ya know, its 2D and all.


Side-Mounted Harpoon Purpose:

When fired at an enemy habitat as we drive past them, our superior traction and engine power will allow us to use the sudden, massive force of impulse to topple their habitat on its side; potentially damaging its crew, structure, and weapon systems, and rendering them immobile. A larger habitat usually isn't susceptible to such attacks unless its weight is distributed in a manner that makes it easier to topple.

[PyroDesu]

Also: Take a look at those wonderfully large farm plots: Never go hungry again, neither you, nor the engine!

[Comp112]

Larger image please? That thing is way to small to really get a good look at.

[Ehndras]

I like it so far

Speaking of designs, I'm getting really close to releasing the full station design of Hyperion. I'll post an empty version in a bit with vacant rooms so everyone can see what's done so far.

[Aklyon]

You seriously need to make that a bigger picture, Ehndras.

Good idea, except if/when they're better balanced than us.
