Lol....was wanting it to be bigger but wasnt really an option without 1.running out of parts and 2.making a bigger dent in my wallet than I already did for this project. Also any bigger it would seriously limit its movement on the board.
Ok, here comes the cheeseiest list of weapons you've might of seen on 1 ship.
2 planet killer style cannons (prow)
They fire in a stright line and don't ignore sheilds.
Doesnt cause critical hits, just hits as normal as can cause 12 hits of damage(on a good roll).
8 torpedos (prow)
15 Bombardment cannons (dorsal & belly) left, right, front.
starboard 8 lance turrets
     20 firepower
     6 torpedos ÂÂ
Port    8 lance turrets
     20 firepower
     6 torpedos
Rear, that's right, the rear.
     8 firepower
     4 lance turrets
9 squadrons of thunderhawks
20 hits to destroy
Armour 6+
5 sheilds
Movment is much the same as a standard battlebarge, due to the extra engines I have put on the model itself. For turning there are extra engines for that placed at the front just before the rows of firepower cannon start. So infact exactly the same as your standard BB.
I've had it in few battles where I've put it up against 10 In crusiers of different kinds and even though they did a good amount of damage, this ship still took them all on and won with 5 hit point remaining. Strangely enough it lost to just 4 chaos crusiers with long range lance turrets.
Ahh, its good to have fun and over do things. But with the black templars fleet based nature I thought a ship of this size would be a good idea for my fleet.
Thanks all, not sure to paint it black or white with a stripe of the oppsite colour?
