Description

In the game "Wing Commander: Prophecy", the Tiamat Dreadnought was the flagship of the evil "Nephilim", an insectoid alien species. The Nephilim tried to wipe out every other species in the galaxy.

My version of this ship is a small grid ship. I was able to build it somewhere heptagonal with rotors but it was really hard. It's not possible to build a complete hull this way so I had to improvise. The ship looks quite intimidating from far away but as you get closer, you will notice that it's a big pile of armor blocks.

It has a cockpit and thrusters (hidden in the ship's body), but it's quite hard to fly because once you accelerate, the whole thing starts rotating and behaving weird because the subgrids (one per rotor) start colliding.
