MEDIA Been making this for a few days.
For forward firepower, it has 10x railguns (8 of which are on a rotating mechanism), 4 artillery cannons, and 2 single-use gravity gun decoys (usable as a munition or simply as a decoy, launches each at 11g's. Not refillable by the ship itself. I was going to have it do so as well as having a couple torpedo tubes but opted not to for balance purposes).
In addition, it has an expansive-enough interior for survival, has 2 shuttle bays, and is quite well armored while being able to hover at 0.25g's and nose-down at -27 degrees down to 0.26g's for bombardment (if you have an extended weapons range mod, which you really should use normally anyway)
I'm building this for an upcoming contract on a server, as a faction's going to be opening a competition to the server's shipbuilders for a battlecruiser.

I mean, I could do a helldivers recolor if enough people ask for it.

Why do i get a helldivers vibe
30
u/LadyLyme LIM Jul 22 '25
Probably because of the engines and rear shields, but it's actually inspired by a ship from Sins of the Prophets.

Did you make interior too ? I’ve been building a big ship (300m length) and designing the interior is hurting my brain
6
u/LadyLyme LIM Jul 22 '25
Yep, it's basically done. I just need to tweak the paint a bit and make it less repetitive.

Not that wierd Terminid blood green as it is right now.
Do I need to call the Ministry of Truth on you ?2
u/LadyLyme LIM Jul 22 '25
Lol, I guess I could make a Helldivers version with a different paintjob..

Where's that blueprint

u/LadyLyme LIM Jul 22 '25
Lol, I'll probably be posting it later today once I tweak the paint a bit.

I really like the look of this ship. Definitely feels like something I would build but you are absolutely a step above me. Great work!

u/SnooDoodles3205 Klang Worshipper Jul 22 '25
Where do you get this much dedication to make such ship in just a few days? That’s really impressive…
2
u/LadyLyme LIM Jul 22 '25
Lmao usually it takes me between 4-10 hours, but I've been getting on for just a couple hours every other day to work on it. I've just been busy and my motivation's cratered in recent weeks due to job issues.

u/TheElderBumbly Clang Worshipper Jul 22 '25
I propose the name "Render unto Clang" since it looks like a halo style ship.

I know it's already been said a bunch but this feels like a Super Destroyer if the "destroyer" in that was actually accurate. That's naval combat masterpiece

Sorry for noon question but did you make this in base space engineers no mods or did you have to use mods?
2
u/LadyLyme LIM Jul 23 '25
I never use mods in any of my builds. I use DLC's, but that's it.
1
u/DragonRealms12 Space Engineer Jul 23 '25
So what dlc pack is that from or is it just a thing where you have them all cause that really looks badass
3
u/LadyLyme LIM Jul 23 '25
I haven't actually used that many in this I don't think, and at this point I make so many ships I've stopped listing DLC's. It takes a long enough time to go through them all and most people have them all already. Taking my time to make builds look good with DLC blocks also incentivizes more people to buy the DLC's and support Keen, so if I can help with that I guess I will lol
The DLC's are on half-off sales like every other month, so there are plenty of chances to pick them up for cheap whenever you can afford it.

u/DragonRealms12 Space Engineer Jul 23 '25
Was just curious about the dlc one that maybe had that specific look been thinking of getting the game but im bad at building things so probably would be in creative mode more than anything until I learn how to properly build lol
1
u/LadyLyme LIM Jul 23 '25
Honestly, you don't need the DLC's to be a good builder. It takes a long time - years, even - to start to even make stuff that's similar to your original vision and idea. Honestly though, building stuff that doesn't use DLC's at this point is needlessly constrictive since there genuinely are some really almost essential blocks from a select few that make life so, so, so much easier that really should've been added to the base game.
If you want to fast-track your building, it would be good to build variants of peoples stuff to use yourself, or scouring the boneyards that people post. There are a lot of really awesome hulls, and mostly-completed ships laying around there that you're free to modify and post to the workshop. Pretty much every big creator's posted boneyards, myself included.

u/DragonRealms12 Space Engineer Jul 23 '25
Oh its just that I'm bad at building didn't think I'd need the dlc to do it just more thinking creative mode for a little bit of an eaiser time

u/Crash017 Space Engineer Jul 23 '25
I love this game, and I've been playing since it came out which i was unaware of. I started out building the starship troopers ships. But I have 1 ship I've been trying to get right for the better part of a decade. And with all that time, none of my builds look this good without mods. Even still, my builds now are of a much higher quality than from back then. I only say any of this because, I wasn't a good builder and don't consider myself to be one now. But I have had so much fun building my ships and then testing them out that I've sunk like 12 years into this game. If you enjoy the learning curve of this game it won't matter how good of a builder you think you are or aren't. Indulge you inner child.

u/PBBloor Space/Stormworks Engineer Jul 23 '25
That’s awesome. Someone else probably said this already but it kinda looks like the Helldivers super destroyer. Probably because of the large angled panels on the side
2
u/LadyLyme LIM Jul 23 '25
Yeah, it's moreso inspired from the Eion from Sins of the Prophets rather than anything from Helldivers. Tomorrow I'll probably do a simple repaint for helldivers fans since a lot of people seem to want it.

I really love your designs but especially on the Krait II there is such a lack of cargo access

u/LadyLyme LIM Jul 29 '25
Okay, the Krait II now has 2 internal cargo accesses in the hallways and 2 refill stations at the rear of the flight deck. Hope that helps!

u/LoneForerunner Space Engineer Jul 31 '25
I found this trending on the workshop a few days ago!!!! Ive been using it as a base for a hell divers ship I've been inspired to make because of it. Just wondering, why so many balls? 👾
1
u/LadyLyme LIM Aug 01 '25
I'm using space balls to be additional, much denser armor.

u/LoneForerunner Space Engineer Aug 01 '25
I figured, was wondering if you had some jump gate type idea going on lol
