AR's Reforged Eden 2.0 Series

Description
The Honeybadger is the smallest Full-service Battleship ever created for Reforged Eden 2.0, and the smallest there ever will be. Created specifically to capitalize on stealth and cunning, The Badger is just 4 targettable blocks tall, while holding the maximum amount of shield components allowed in the config, combining massive shield strengths, with unheard of avoidance and hiding abilities, this is a Small ship with Big potential.

The Badger is so small, It comes as a highly effective Core7 Attack ship, with no special part requirements. & can scale all the way to Killing Tovera Dreadnoughts as just a Core9-10, a simple feat for this ship.

Being as Nimble as it is, with Omni-directional full speeds, and numerous, large armored compartments, the airframe is ideal for repurposing... Want an Armed Excavator-turret miner? It'll do that. Want an armed Dropship? It'll do that, too. Due to its low relative weight, and truly huge internal capacity, the Badger can fill many roles with only simple modification.

This is a "Side-attack" ship, it is made to close distance fast, and attack from blindspots. It is also more than a Dozen xeno blocks thick at the front, with the option to add more layers internally. The Honeybadger will soundly kick the crap out of infectors in it's stock version, it has an 80,000 Hitpoint shield as a Core7. With some care in handling, and an intermittent shield-recharge, I easily downed a decimator with it, as well.

Zirax Frigates? Corvettes? Destroyers? Dead Dead Dead. Easy fights for the Badger.

& When you've killed everything else, The Tovera awaits you.

Enjoy.

Still an amazing ship, at Core 7 this is an insane bargain, should be everyone's first ship

This Is the best Combat CV in the game, It beats all of RE2 content at C9.

@ArtemisRouge ah thanks, I’ve got a lot of ships I need to go take templates of lol

Tree that's a game bug, not a bug with this particular ship. When you spawn in any ship you now need to save the template, ships no longer have a 'default' template as they should, template must be saved after spawning it in or you will get that bug w/ any ship.

Brought this in last night and think it’s great. I put it on a repair pad and it’s showing a huge list of stuff to repair to original template - is my game bugging out or was the template taken with a lot of extra parts maybe? Wondering if I should run a deconstruct script on it and bring it in again to get a fresh template

Pmota The Shippo is more of a legacy-specific ship, an armor tank, for introductory combat and getting your first Quantum processors. The Badger has way more upgradability and shield slots. The Arcadian would be the 'replacement' / Upgrade choice I'd recommend from the Honeybadger. More storage, larger weapons, more armor, more weapons, more speed.

Artemis, I have been enjoying this VERY efficient ship for quite some time now (upgraded it to core IX, added a bit more shield etc etc). Is your (more recent) Shippo X intended as a almost direct alternative/replacement for this or are they very different ?

You know, I am thankful for your work in a very specific way - I don't have to worry about the most efficient way to build a combat ship, because you already did and you do excel at it :D - Thank you for your work, mate! The Honeybadger is amazing.
