My rendition of the Caldari Drake Battlecruiser from the game EVE Online. It's not perfect, but I think I did an okay job... you be the judge of that tho >.>

Features:
- Internal Hull for easy customization
- Flight Recorder
- Small magenta Framework Block for easy converison into Transporter block
- Full integrity coverage
- FOR COMPLETE STATS, SEE LAST IMAGE!!

Costs:
Credits 2.047.000
Iron 129.000
Titanium 102.000

NOTE:
This ship was built at twice its current size, and then downscaled to its current size. Can be upscaled with no problem!

This has no right being as good as it is, especially dragging it to the galactic core by upscaling it and swapping materials out.
First playthrough, vanilla, normal difficulty. What I can't kill I can either kite or run away from.

Only times I came close to losing this thing was when I was just starting and didn't have an impenetrator installed and one time where I tunnelvisioned and missed my Reviving Shielder subsystem having already triggered.

Thank you for bringing this EVE classic to Avorion, and for your painstaking optimization of every cubic mm inside it.

I'll admit it's more of an art piece than anything else. I was going to add an armor layer beneath the hull, but I'd set the goal of 50k blocks max... and that wasn't feasible with an armor layer.

Have you converted the smart hull inside the ship into more shields?

I tried the ship, and it works well, but it has basically no hull or mine at least when the shield drops the ship blows up, so not ideal for solo mob fights. However with another ship I found I could just fly away from the pirates when my shield was down in the 25% range, and in the small test I found I could run stop turn around, check my torpedoes and maybe pop a couple at distance while my shield recovered, which in the couple times I've done it I like running away turning around and seeing all the enemies coming and how few are actually left. Thanks for the ship I just wish it had a layer of armor and not just the shield. I did find a shield boost that helps the shield last longer :)

I'm afraid I don't currently have any plans for more EVE ships, sorry.

Heya,
It would be awesomly awesome to see the Ferox represented with as much love as you showed for the Drake and your other eve projects.
If you, by any chance still doing eve ship conversions.

Cheers!

Hot Damn! That was my first 'serious' ship back in the days.
Great work.
