First version of the Red Dwarf class strike ship is ready, with enough firepower to turn most techs into fireworks, and enough thrust to get in and out of combat with plenty of time to spare, as well as solar panels for self charging, and chargers to help out other ships. Also has shield and repair controls to help reduce it's energy signature, and be less visible when going into stealth mode.
somewhat unrelated reply but i needed to get your attention
so most of my nova ships are actually collabs with nooboid. basically he designs all the functionality and i brush it up and make it look very fancy and cool. but the issue is that i barely ever recieve a promotion for them since they arent "my" ships. is it okay if those ships count as both me and thetas, so i can get promotions by designing those too? ive fixed up all 3 of the current dwarf-class ships that theta made, he can vouch.
also how do you get into high cmd anyways
It is done fellas
Ender was pretty unlucky there, he almost got deleted by a BF hovercraft full of laser

Well, must admit the pistol is actually perfect. now I might make a joke about a mechanic being stuck on a new bomber type becoming our top gunner, but who knows?
I have a new flagship: The NOVA Invulnerable! With a group of Troopers and Knights for extra defence against light techs, and Anti Air turrets on top of the new command bridge, for added defence against planes and other airborne threats. With me at the helm of this, NOVA will be unstoppable!
everyone: has futuristic and powerful weapons
me: haha pistol go pew. although, that pistol is perfect.

Well when you are a pilot, you don't need a big gun or special one. You need your wings and the missiles/bombs/bullets that they bring.
On another topic update on my large craft think It will be a troop carrier and light vehicle transport.
you can start lining them up into a battlegroup, like this for instance, tell us how each ship fits in the group, which ship does what, and so on. When you have a functioning battlegroup, you will be promoted into commodore, then after clearing this training exercise, you will be promoted into a rear admiral. Promotion to 5-star rank is in the horizon for every NOVA member, however we have to climb according to the ranking system we have invented, for context, current members of NOVA High Command has been in service for almost a year, so slowdown, enjoy the fight, and most importantly, have fun
alright so our ships count as both mine and nooboids? thanks
its technically nooboids battlegroup so he has say for when to submit it, but i will recieve credit too when its submitted i assume? ty
Decided to put all my military builds together as different groups.
GROUND Control
Bellow is a simiulated image of some of warbrand's battlefield vehicles, at the rear are three heavy turrets mostly seen around his private locations and high value nova facilities. Along with those are many MRLS launchers and light combat vehicles. Oddly Warbrand only has two tanks, a light scout tank designed to be dropped from his carriers, and the spider which has no combat Intel other then rummors that RR deploys it.
AEROSPACE
Simulated based on screenshots and a few purchased units. Warbrand seems to be the main aerospace fighter of the NOVA core, with his army supplying all Close air support in most known Nova controlled regions, each vehicle shown is a different version of each other. with the notable vehicles being the nova command carriers seen at the sides, though one has only been seen in dry dock images and it is unknown what it is going to have once complete.
It has been noticed that warbrand has a pentiant for anti gravity flight so AG jammers might be of value, if they can ever be designed. That said his smaller vehicles are pure VTOL ctraft making those hard to pin down.
Logistics and support
The newest unit seen under warbrands control, this unit is rather small using retrofits of some of his older techs, most notably his Vtol supply transports. So far no unique techs have been spotted in it outside of the heavy artillery platform seen on the left of the image, which hasn't even been seen in battle, though its shells have been felt.

Finally decided what my big ship will be, it will be a logistics and troop transport.
As such its main focus is cargo and infantry with that comes a rework of it but that will be slow to do.
two new rooms added to teh ship
, those being medical, and cryo, with 2 more planned those being galley (got to eat), and barracks.
Front landing gear is also done.

Well the thing is, like, we collab on the designs since we are friends, and that makes it somewhat blurry whose ships they are. I guess us just both counting them as our ships would simplify things though, should i do that?
Started work on my first designated supply line vehicles.
I give you the Nova resupply crawler, current image shows its three configs. Turret deployment, supply carry, and armored transport.
lore: The resupply crawler is a resent development by the Nova Logistics Corps, after it was determined using repurposed resource crawlers wasn't good enough as the crawlers tended to get stuck when boarding the logistics transport ships. Early on it was discovered driving them in reverse fixed the issue, so the corps took those old supply crawlers flipped their drive train around and rebuilt them from the ground up.
This gave Nova the resupply crawler, which despite being a retrofit and upgrade of an old vehicle is preffered for many reasons including the fact the driver is actually armored allowing it to be used in no oxygen enviroments with out the driver having separate O2 tank.

{part 1 of 2}
The Dwarf Line of ships is Complete!
Forming the backbone of many NOVA operations, these ships each fulfil a specific purpose and role within the fleets of NOVA.
These ships were made as a collaboration with @TheTryhqrdASAIN. The ships posted here are the T variant, meaning they have had modifications made by me after construction.
The White Dwarf is the first craft of choice for many Lancers, with a blend of power, mobility and defence, armed with 13 BMBs and 2 AKIRA railguns supplied by Hawkeye. There is almost no situation in which these cannot be used.
The Red Dwarf is a powerful craft, with enough weapons to turn almost any enemy into fireworks, and boosters to get in and out of combat very quickly. However, the fuel takes up some space for batteries and other thrusters, meaning it's shields are not as powerful as others, and without boosters, it is slower than some of it's sister craft. It also has controls for it's shields and repair bubbles, so as to reduce visibility and power drain while out of combat. It is armed with 24 Cruise Missiles, 3 Mk3 Battleship cannons, and 4 AKIRA railguns, supplied by Hawkeye.
The Blue Dwarf is areskin retrofit of the Red Dwarf, with alternate weapons, made to precisely take out parts of enemies or asteroids. It's armament consists of 16 Zeus lasers, 3 Mk3 Battleship cannons supplied by Hawkeye, and 4 Lance laser turrets supplied by Venture.
The Yellow Dwarf is a slow and heavy craft, with a more supportive role. It has resource collection capabilities, with delivery cannons to transfer resources between ships. It also has many solar panels, and remote chargers, as well as a large battery capacity, allowing it to be used as a mobile refueling station. It's weapons are as follows: 4 Tesla Coils and 1 Giga Plasma, supplied by Reticule Research, 4 Missile Batteries, supplied by GSO, 2 Gimballed Plasma Cutters, supplied by GeoCorp, and 4 AKIRA railguns, supplied by Hawkeye.
The Orange Dwarf is a strong craft for almost any range, although it's weapons are more powerful against smaller faster targets, with rapid fire missiles with erratic pathing and long range destroying anything that moves. These craft are often used behind the lines of other ships, raining missiles and railgun shots on enemies. This craft has 6 Hive missile launchers supplied by Reticule Research, and 4 AKIRA railguns supplied by Hawkeye.

{part 2 of 2}
The Brown Dwarf was made as a cheap, easy to manufacture unit that could be used by AI. It is a small craft with very low battery compared to it's brethren, and high top speed. It does not have full flight capability, as the AI cannot handle vertical controls, limiting it's use to in asteroid fields or on the surface of other terrestrial bodies. It is armed with 1 Seeker Missile Pod and 2 AKIRA railguns, supplied by Hawkeye.
The Black Dwarf is a swift and stealthy vehicle, with very high top speed and maneuverability, however low battery and weaponry. It's only defences are it's repair bubble and the durable blocks it is made out of. It's armament is only 1 Hawkeye BMB, although there is a popular variant using 2 AKIRA railguns instead.
