KeelHaul

The KeelHaul is a Tier2 Unlock 10 versatility concept with covered broadside ports for 12 cannons. This deceptive and unassuming build can be used either as a mech/vehicle carrier (and can even fit a Cuddlefish CV ontop by default as well as 2 Medium or Smaller mechs (such as the Hunchback/Vulture or Locusts). The rear can park a small HV like the Termite or PowerArmor Suit as well. Heck, it can even haul a full Projekt CV.

This ship is also upgradable to Tier3 (in both versions) - for Vanilla, you will need to remove both Computer Decos and the Cargo Box next to it to place both T3 CPUs. Whereas in Reforged Eden you will only need 1 (the computer decos). This will allow you to place even more Cannons beyond the 12x limit on vanilla as well as a couple of rockets or lasers or whatever on the mech ports.

There's room to upgrade to an Ore&Wood Controller and place a Drill Turret ontop if you wish to turn this into a miner.

There's also rear access to place Warp and Shield as well as an RCS upgrade if so desired. See screenshots and refer to LCD in game for instructions. Overall, this ship is inexpensive and nimble for the features it provides and has been tested in RE against a pair of Privateer Corvettes with minimal damage taken (I only lost maybe 3 steel blocks total). One further note, in RE I did upgrade 2 of the aux gens to larges and it does support upgrading to Advanced Warp/Shield which gives this build even more versatility.

Now fire up that Captain Dan & the Scurvy Crew and go plundering dat booty! Yaaar wench! XD

Updated 4/18/2022: Revised Keelhaul and updated bp with the new paintjob style to match my other creations. Moved Radar to the back so you don't have to bother removing it to add Drill Turret.
