[LDD MOC] SC-8030 "Goblin" Gunboat

Recommended Posts

Designed my first SHIiP (Seriously Huge Investment in Parts). DondoDyne SC-8030 "Goblin", a heavily armored gunboat on-par with the Skipray Blastboat.

Eight ball-jointed engines, attached to four swiveling hubs for maximum maneuverability in and out of atmospheres. No reliance on repulsorlift or antigravity systems, making it perform equally across all environments, terrestrial or no.

The bright red "shoot me here" fuel tanks are highly combustible, and when destroyed, often cause a chain reaction destroying all tanks, and causing damage to nearby ships. Perfect for suicide missions!

The two rear crew are gunners, and the forward crew is made up of a pilot and co-pilot, the co-pilot having control of the lower turret, as well as the fuel, inertia, electrical, and communication systems. The pilot must balance use of the twin concussion missile launchers, five forward mounted laser cannons, the proton torpedo launcher, and the eight individually articulated engines. The swiveling hubs function on the s-foil system, so that's one thing off of the cluttered mind of a Goblin pilot.

The pilot and co-pilot need to be trained heavily, and trained together. If one messes up, there's a big chance of it barreling into the ground while on fire and spinning.

comments/criticism? these images can be found in my "musings" folder, i'll make a dedicated folder for this when i build it irl

Looks good! I love the idea of a medium capital ship like this. I'm working on trying to build something like this at the moment. I'd love to see it in real bricks.
