Title: Building your own starship
Post by: Augustus Lucius Flavius on August 15, 2013, 12:46:10 PM
If you could design a ship class of any type what would it be and what would you call it?  My ship would be a three KM winged (like the Vengeance) Star Destroyer with a deeper hull to allow for more fighters. Its total armament would be 150 heavy turbo batteries, 150 heavy ion batteries, 50 concussion missile launchers, 60 point defense batteries.  Its fighter complement would be 15 squadrons of TIE Avengers, 10 squadrons of Scimitars, and 5 squadrons of TIE Defenders. It would be called the Caesar-class.

Modified ISDII
Stealth black armor for sensor masking, replace all the ridgeline turbolasers with anti starfighter defenses and place more emphasis on speed than sheer firepower

So not only does it blast any MC80 out of the sky, it removes any starfighter advantage forcing the republic to go ship-to-ship in order to destroy it?  Yeah, that's OP.  Also, why the heck didn't Kuat do that?  It makes too much sense!

I would improve on that and give it redundant shielding.  I'm tired of that getting blasted.

Once that is all done, you don't need to do anything else beyond making dozens of them at a time and even the Chiss hero blob cannot stand against you.  It's the one stop shop for Imperial domination.

Yeah...I think they pretty much covered what I would want with the Errant Venture. An ISD-II redesigned as a mobile shadowport with a superlaser? Yes please.

Well in my experience Speed and versatility are what make a vessel strategic. The basic ISDII is a good ship, it can be mass produced, it has fighters, heavy arms and troops. Basically all that's needed would be tweaks of it.
As to why Kuat didn't do that? Well Stealth plating is apparently pretty hideously expensive(I mean the only capital examples are the Knight Hammer and a few specialized vessels) I imagine it would also slow down mass production a bit too. Also the vessel would lose some of it's main priority as a capital ship destroyer since about 1/4 of it's heavy weapons would be replaced with anti fighter arms. Still in my opinion this would have drastically improved it's combat effectiveness as a whole. It could also have been done to a degree with VSDIIs as well.

my ship would be a made in a design similar to the Harrower-class dreadnought around 8000 meters with redundant shields,
stealth armor,engines from the Bellator-class dreadnought and the middle hanger replaced with a canon like the Aggressor-class Star Destroyers capable of annihilating smaller cap ships and crippling Dreadnaughts.


its armament being 1 super ion/plasma cannon   7000 turbo lasers   220 point defence lasers   100 heavy ion cannons   45 Assault concussion missile tubes  55 anti-fighter weapons.

its fighter complement being 700 fighters or bombers my personal one being 100 TIE/D Defenders 300 Predator-class fighters 300  GAT-12 Skipray Blastboat

Post by: kucsidave on August 24, 2013, 05:32:17 PM
If u ask me, sometimes a smaller ship is the best option, so i would say, i would have my own capital ship, and a smaller ship always in it's hangar...
My exp. shows this is the best tactic.
So my answer is the folowing:
-The Destructor:
I would have a VERY long ship(about 13-14000m),In design mostly like the Majestic-class Heavy Cruiser,with the exceptoion of it's wings would be abouut in the 1/3 of the hull(from the front), and make them more narrow.
I would equip it with about:3-400 Simple, and 2-300 Heavy Turbolasers,150 Ion Cannon, and 70-80 Concussion
Missile Launcher, and for the extreme large number of starfighters i would also equip it with about 30-40 Quad Laser Cannon, to hold up the enemy fighters and bombers , til my owns finishes em.
I would make a large hangar runs through the hull. To make the hangars protected, it's entreances would be in both sides of the hull, with only smaller (kind of tunels) leading to the main hangars(20-25/side).
It would carry about 120 TIE Reaper, 80 Skypray Blastboats, 200 Toscan Fighters, and my personal ship.
-The Veris
My Personal ship would be a modified YT-2000 Light Freighter. Those thigs can make some damage. Mine would be equiped with 2 Laser Cannons, and 1 Ion Cannon(right under the cockpit), and 2 rotateabble quad turret in the top, and the bottom of the ship.
So if my capital ship is overruned by fighters it can defend itself til my fighters deploying from the safe hangars, thanks to the heavy weaponary, it can also make any MC-90 to spacedust in the matter of seconds.
And when theese all are useless, time to run in my personal ship togeather with the VIPs.
I don't want to like Tarkin or Palpatine(x2). if things aren't going your way you must have a plan B
Just imagine: you're in a SSD, your engines are all down, all of the fighters are fighting for their lives, and your ship is about to colapse, and you and the most of your fraction's admirality is on board. If you all die, it could be a critical blow to the fraction.But if you can escape at least the admirality is saved, so you will have a second chance to beat the bastards...

My YT-2000 wouldn't have too complex things for the same reason...

I'd have essentially a Praetor Mk. II except much of the internals that hold prefabbed garrisons and such stripped out for additional hanger capacity.  Redundant shield emitters.  Would be a full-on battle carrier.  Armed with Tie Avengers and Skipray Blastboats.

Ah, but Maarek Stele proved that even an "inferior" craft like the Avenger could outperform an "advanced" fighter like the Defender if it was put in the right hands.
Title: Re: Building your own starship
Post by: tlmiller on August 25, 2013, 12:03:56 AM
Avengers look better IMO, are cheaper, and if you have dedicated strike craft, aren't all THAT much worse in a superiority role due to the smaller size of the Avenger making it much more difficult to target.

And for strike craft, as good as the Defender is, the Blastboat is basically unequalled until you get to the K-Wing, and it (canonically) lacks the Blastboats hyperdrive.

So I'm assuming you just want to put a giant target on yourself? I mean, if it can hold it's own against an armada, cool, but you might as well keep an entire sector fleet and then some with it. And forget about the element of surprise. The things fucking massive, and would be detected instantly. Not to mention, with the way the god damn Rebels are, they would find some 'catastrophic design flaw' and blow the entire fucking thing up.

Possibly but let us remember that while almost all the SSD and dreadnaughts were eventually destroyed they normally died hard and took quite a few enemies with them
Title: Re: Building your own starship
Post by: kucsidave on September 05, 2013, 11:22:38 AM
yeah.
the SSD-s were quite useful in their time. i think it's a pitty that the NR were unabble to countinue the upgrading of them.
just imagine: the executor class SSD's were designed and operated for about 50 years, and how useful were they.
if the NR would wait for 100-150 years innovating them what would happen?
INSTANT KILLING FOR ORDER.
Title: Re: Building your own starship
Post by: tlmiller on September 05, 2013, 11:54:53 AM
It's not that they COULDN'T continue upgrading, they simply decided to focus more upon smaller, faster ships with focused weaponry (cross of fire).  It's an ongoing cycle in SW, they get huge, then they get small, start to grow again, get huge, then go small...

To a degree. I think the SSDs fulfilled their roles very admirably and when added to a fleet could be nigh unstoppable. However they were also logistical nightmares I would imagine as a standard ISD was once described as 47,000,000 maintenance issues waiting to happen, what would a vessel worth 20 of them be to maintain?
Title: Re: Building your own starship

If I have an SSD I am quite sure I will be able to afford a minion that is good at figuring out the best logistical supply line or I can just find a planet that has what is needed with a quick holonet search and take it because I have an SSD. Their arguments will be invalid.

I suppose that is a point, though then you'd have to guard against sabotage(I cite the tragic results sabotage played on the Knight Hammer, Iron Fist, Aurora, Eclipse II, and Intimidator)

Sabotage is cheating and cheaters will be tracked down and then promptly banned from life.  But it does not matter since I shall have an entire legion of YVH droids surrounding all of the critical systems. Before you ask how I will acquire the droids, the first mission I will take my ship on is to raid all of Lando's supply depots and factories to get all of his savior weapons of the book and put them to use for the Empire instead of the rebel terrorists.

All of the Ships are great and all but some of my ships in my FanFictions are pretty Epic. But I'm going to give you a ship I would have in the Star Wars Universe. It's form My fic Star WarsTwice Empires (AKA a Mandalorain Faction and a Sith Empire faction call the Sith Empire of the Light.) It is call (and both Factions have then but Different Ships but similar at the same time) The Excalibur MK2  Class Super Star Destroyer.(their a Mk1 but i like the MK2 look more) It's Standard size (and yes their are bigger size Ships of the class but I'm not going tell you what they are yet.) Is 25,000 meters in length 6,500 meters in width and yes in does look like a Sword in shape (the whole ship look like the Executor and the Vengeance Classes but the same depth as the Sovereign just no thing at the Front.) And Height is 4,500 meters. Primary Front Main Gun is a Super Heavy Mass/TurboLaser Accelerator Canon (Op sounding huh) 8 Mega Turbolaser Quad Canons (8 Turrets on the wings/Hilt) 32 super Turbolaser tri canons Turrets (like a Battleship guns) 3,000 Heavy Turbolaser Batterys, 7,000, Turbolaser Batterys 4,000, heavy ION Canons batterys, 2,500 ion canons Batterys, 400 Concussion missile tubes. And 2,500 anti-Flights Laser canons. Now for the Armor and Shields Systems First is the armor. Hull Armor 3 Lars of 15m of Titanium-Beskar Hybrid Armor Coated with Tungsten. Second is the Shields. 2 Shield Lars of Redundant/All Proposes Super Energy Shields. It's Fighter Complement is 1,500 of Fighers and Bombers Of the Sith Empire of the Light (I'll tell more about them another time ok guys and girls) some what do you think of the Excalibur. Oh and it can Carry Corvette class to light Frigate Class ships.

I like this idea ill give it a shot.
Reaper Class Star Destroyer
A mass produced version of the experimental weapons platform EF-X. It is 1600m in length. Unlike the prototype this one lacks the vulnerable antimatter container. It resembles the ISD MK 1 but with a few key differences. The main guns are replaced with dual long range heavy turbolasers like the kind you would find on an SSD. It also sports a ultra heavy beam laser on a central circular mounting platform near the bow of the ship. It also sports an effective AA defense system with numerious fast tracking turbolaser towers. The shields are far stronger than even the ISD MKII due to it being a test bed for SSD shields and engines. This also gives it quite an edge in maneuverability. Hangar size is slightly ahead of the ISD as well.

B. Well, this is my own design I like to call Reaper-class Star Destroyer. A smaller star destroyer with Black paintjob instead of the normal grey. It's purpouse is to pack much more of a punch bringing al little heavier armament as the ISD I, but in a smaller frame.(it is only more that I would replace the quad Turbolasers to Octople, and the Duals to Quads. Not much of an improvement, but still. Though to get this, it has a much smaller Hangar, only able to carry 12 TIEs)

I like your idea too Dave :) I have always had a fascination with the EF-X my idea came from the model someone created to try and represent it. It looked like an ISD that had stole the guns and engines from and SSD it looked beast. Plus the beam laser on the front was actually there in the model giving it even more firepower. I actually heard Corey mention he might attempt to do a model for it since it played a key role in the Black fleet crisis and the final imperial push so here's hoping it makes it :).

Guilltine Class Super Star Destroyer

Take all of the guns of an SSD. And make it so that it goes Turbo Laser, Ion Cannon, and then Concussion Missle. Replace hangars with more guns. It now has AA defense and even better DPS. It's perfect.

E-Wing 2.

An E-Wing with a gun on the back to prevent those blood kill shots from behind.

Aurora-calss Star Destroyer (ASD).

I won't be satisfied without having a proper carrier, so I'll create another modification of ISD, with most of heavy weaponry removed, expanded hangars (420 small craft is the lowest number expected to carry), no need of big hangar doors, fighters could be launched with Star Wars analogue of EMALS to achieve or exceed launch speed of the Venator with open doors. This modification don't need any weaponry except mb for small number of anti-fighter lasers. Create a fleet consisting of this carrier, Tectors and Lancers and you are the winner.

Fighter complement: 200 TIE Hunters/Interceptors for fighter role, 100 Scimitars for assault role, 100 TIE Defenders for multirole (after this one I'll probably be bankrupt) and 20 troop carriers (probably IDT or LAAT/i). This goes for minimal load of 420, though I'd assume that ship of ISD size with mostly nothing but hangars could get like 600, in this case complement wiil be like: 250 TIE Hunters, 200 Scimitars, 100 TIE Defenders and 50 troop carriers (same type as above). If someone have enough money he could go with TIE/Ds only and troop carriers.

mine would be the Fist of Justice standalone SSD. 23 Km long, it incorporates design features from Knight Hammer(stealth armor and reduced crew), Eclipse(extra heavy armor,same basic look, just 6 Km longer, with a laser with capabilities of the DS2 laser), and the World Devastators(eating ability and produces swarms of fighters and war material). produced in the outer rim, in the unknown regions, it would serve as the base for Palpatine's last stand, had he not been taken down for good in shadow hand. only 30% complete, and with no more support from the empire, construction was halt, and the ship was scraped. Material and Resources eventually were used to fund the Krayt Empire after the fall of the Fels in 130 ABY

Mine would be a 3.7km long fleet carrier with similar deployments to the Secutor.

It would be shaped very closely to the Centurion Battlecruiser (picture will be posted at the bottom), with a single massive hangar bay on the bottom, and two hangars at each of its otherwise heavily plated flanks. It would have a large array of maybe 5 Ion Cannon Batteries at the front? With about 20 Light Turbolaser Batteries along the sides of the ship. It would have point defense arrays spread across the topside, and quad lasers defending each of the five hangars. The main weapons would be the 6 Quad Turbolaser Batteries surrounding the bridge, leaving it somewhat defensible at the rear. The bulges? Yeah, those have concussion missile launchers.

It's compliment? 4 Squadrons ARC-170s, 4 Squadrons TIE Defenders, 6 Squadrons TIE Avengers, 1 Wing TIE Interceptors, 1 Wing TIE/ln Starfighters, and 5 Squadrons of TIE Bombers.

your fine.


mine would be the Fist of Justice standalone SSD. 23 Km long, it incorporates design features from Knight Hammer(stealth armor and reduced crew), Eclipse(extra heavy armor,same basic look, just 6 Km longer, with a laser with capabilities of the DS2 laser), and the World Devastators(eating ability and produces swarms of fighters and war material). produced in the outer rim, in the unknown regions, it would serve as the base for Palpatine's last stand, had he not been taken down for good in shadow hand. only 30% complete, and with no more support from the empire, construction was halt, and the ship was scraped. Material and Resources eventually were used to fund the Krayt Empire after the fall of the Fels in 130 ABY

Your ship's name is a funny coincidence.

 I  would go smaller, perhaps Victory III (As vic 1 or 2 but faster) or a strike cruiser fleet customised for carrying fighters and use better fighters (redirecting fund from silly super weapons/ships or SSD's/ISD II's).

Mass producing TIEs may not be viable, shield equipped interceptors though are.
