Still one of my favorites, a heavy drone firing its two rails and its shotgun. As well as my test bed for 1g coilguns.
shotgun?

shotgun? conventional gun shooting a flak ball that becomes birdshot basically. Flak cannon makes more sense I suppose.

Fighting in retrograde orbit over Sirius B. This is the result of CDE's over-precision.

Is that one of your H2-He3 ships?

Just a random shot of point defense. I thought it looked pretty.

Missile surviving repeated HV railgun hits (blue ones are 50km/s and the cyan ones are 20km/s). A while ago somebody asked who bothers armoring missiles against kinetics... seems that I do.

A while ago somebody asked who bothers armoring missiles against kinetics... seems that I do. you gotta go fast to avoid laser doom, and you gotta go slow to avoid kinetics doom. but can you survive 250km/s?

I would say that you gotta go fast to avoid any kind of doom , by 250 you mean the ginormous cannons on your dreadnought ? , what would you say if I told you you can have 80km/s on a cannon less than 40t , admittedly with much less accuracy than what you see here, but still perfectly usable.

TATAAA the power of graphogel barrel armor might be a bug btw, doesn't make much sense otherwise.
