Not a problem! Let us know how it performs, we love hearing from people who enjoy our ships!

Was wondering how you guys would feel about us uploading this as an ai ship on our server. We are aiming to put in ships that fit the style we wanting on our server for players to come across and have trouble taking down as we will break gun limits on these ships. Would you be against us using this on our server?

Sure, we're happy for anyone to take our designs, modify and upload, we just ask that you include a link to the original in your description. thanks for the comment, nice to see she's still being used :D

this ship is so awesome...i have been working on it to make it landable...and also made it wider so i can fit my bigger sv's inside...then i realized it looked fat...so i made it longer...and now it looks like a bazooka...xD...added a hv hangar to it and i used the "replaceblocks" command to make it combat steel(since i would never have had the patience to gather the materials for it anyway)
im probably gonna add some more details later also but i was wondering if it would be ok that i post it when im done?^^

it's probably listed as orange due to size class limits, I can't remember, but I'm pretty sure it's bigger than size class 6 ;)
As far as I know, it still works ingame, although you may need to use the SBP (spawnanyblueprint) console command

Curious... does this ship still function in-game? It seems my blueprints has it listed with orange text.

reminds me of the ARK from Firefall

nice ship, but space moles do u have any mining ship?????

it looks like some kind of hand-held futuristic gun on the exterior lol, not sure if this was on purpose or not. cool ship!

Heh. that's a better version of the image we based Leviathon off yes ;)

On our original source image (before we even knew what the ship was) all we could see was the long nose and some wierd stuff at the back, so it was pretty much all guesswork and our own designs, apart from the basic shape.

Finally someone made "CSM Arclight" from FireFall

I crapped myself the first time I saw the interior of this ship. If there were awards for interior ship design, this one would win it. I can't say enough about how awesome this ship is when you walk through it for the first time in-game.

I'm just a loley space pirate not much i know except weapons looting and taking other ships to add to my own

if i can interject with the lcd screens that i have been waiting for! :)

@Kaito Shion, I will admit, I've been thinking the very same thing for the past few days, it has always been my intention to continually update ships but time constraints and other projects have got in the way. If you have any ideas or suggestions, they may provide the spark of inspiration that has been missing ;)

This would be nice to have an update for recent patches

Stay tuned for an update ;)

:0 no words...

HERE SPEAKS ADMIRAL nostromo the jump failt we are still in earth orbit but losing apha tooth rapidly! our reactors are instabil we will crash on the earth you have to secure the crashe side!

Damn. I never expected to see the Arclight in space.

We're really sorry, but we haven't got round to it yet, Typhon's taking all our time really at the moment, rest assured we've got it on the list of things to do ;)

have you finished the lcd screens? i don't think i can find my way without them... or can someone make a map?

@neosapien - We tried that with an orbital docking yard. for some reason we had issues with invisible collision boxes that just made no sense whatsoever, maybe we'll try again sometime.

"... does not perform planetary landings. well." hmmm, i want to imagine it could do well if it had a properly constructed docking platform :P

Sorry @thorman, we have a refit planned that should help with navigation..... lcd screens! Probably everywhere! Sit tight and we will update in due course. Thanks.

i downloaded this quite a while ago and spent an hour trying to find the fuel tanks and cockpit and i only found the fuel tanks!!! is there a map or screenshots or leds on the ship to find out where everything is?

Thank you :D

Good, very Good

Damn! Now i'm even more more nostalgic of Firefall. :(

Subscribing anyway.

@pudingsimon - Yes, the image that caught our master builder's eye was indeed an image of the Arclight. Neither of us knew that at the time though, it was just an image. we took the basic idea then constructed the Leviathan based on that one image, tailoring it to our specific needs.

(http://www.firefall.com/system/images/W1siZiIsIjIwMTMvMDMvMTUvMDJfMzNfMjhfMTQzX0FyY2xpZ2h0LmpwZyJdLFsicCIsInRodW1iIiwiODI4eCJdLFsicCIsInN0cmlwIl1d/Arclight.jpg if you were wondering)

I'm told that our master builder feels quite happy that he delivered to specification ;)

this ship looks like the Arclight from firefall

No sweat. I build & use my own stuff anyway, but thanks anyway. :)

I hope the Weapon Count Limits get less severe sooner rather then later. I feel bad that something like this System came about directly through fault of my own... :(

Just as a note, this blueprint cannot currently be spawned if the new weapon limits are enabled, this means it will not be constructable in single player. (not that any single player has the time or willpower to mine that much.... probably)

We've tended not to use combat steel so far, it's very expensive for ships the size of Leviathan. I don't even want to think about the thought even crossing my mind about how expensive Typhon will be.

Fortunately a single block layer thick of Combat Steel is enough protection. Shutter Doors can help too. :)

@Tryax: I know. We discovered the fact that chain reactions can occur late in our testing, and at that point didn't have the willpower to rip the guts of the ship apart to try and protect the fuel cores. We did attempt some defensive changes (as can be seen by added armour plate in front of the lower-aft fuel store), but ultimately, as you've noted, the problem still exists.
Our later model ships now employ better construction techniques to alleviate this issue.

This Ship recently showed in a Vid & I have to say... i'm disappointed in this Ship's willingness to have all Fuel Tanks right on top of each other so the loss of one Fuel Tank will be the loss of them all. Epic Fail.

On the other hand, the Ship is cool looking.

@Fenra: 61,230. yep, it's a bit of a monster, but not *that* bad.
@Imonlyoneman: any similarity to any trademark or other IP is purely accidental I assure you. We didn't want to compete with the other Nintendo masterpiece on the workshop ;)

is that the SNES scope?

Free tips aside, how much iron does this ship take total? O.o the size looks rather daunting..

@Scrinny Free tip: Redundancy.
Also, the cockpit you speak of is not intended for use during a battle, there's another one specifically for that purpose.
Thanks anyway.

Heres the free tip, a cockpit behind a glass wall = your gonna lose your ship in 1 hit vs a pvp player

@Scrinny Funny, I didn't see it getting destroyed in one hit, it seemd to fair quite well against something 3x as massive with about 5x more guns.
You're right though, I have never PvP in Empyrion before, it doesn't interest me, what does, however, is people who take my designs and try them out, and then give constructive criticism.
Cheers for your input anyway.

Your ship could be disbaled with one hit. the video of it in battle further shows you guys have never pvp-ed before.

@Scrinny Aww come on! Everyone has to die, wouldn't you rather be in something pretty?

Another pretty coffin for people to die in.

Yeah, don't draw the short straw and get fuel refill duty

i really hope the dev,s sort out the power useage on cv,s. because at the moment that beast would suck most of the fuel in system ;) just for 30min flight time lol

@Slam Jones
WOW! :D
Honestly, I'm a little surprised, as soon as I saw your Ogre I knew the Leviathan was in for a pounding, so many guns!
I admit, I haven't watched to the bitter end, I don't think my morbid curiosity will stretch that far!
I'm curious as to why yours appeared to stop firing a couple of times?
Great stuff! Keep on Destroying things!
