[SHIP] The Euthanasia (Suicide Ship)

Postby Skeleqrow » Fri Sep 09, 2016 7:12 pm

When troop numbers were running thin, the Federation got desperate. They had one choice and that one choice could mean the difference between defeat and complete victory over the Rebels.

They turned to the most ruthless captured pirates, who had attempted raids against Federation scouts and cargo ships. They were loaded onto a new prototype ship specially designed to make them serve: The Euthanasia.

The Euthanasia was the solution for low numbers. An O2-less ship with advanced cloning technology. The premise was simple: torture bloodthirsty pirates to death while they worked and, as they were cloned, do it all over again.

As inhumane as it seems, the ship serves its purpose.


The Euthanasia

Layout

Starting Systems
Piloting - 1
Engines - 2
Weapons - 5
Clone Bay - 3
Doors - 1
Sensors - 1

Starting Weapons
Burst Laser MK I
Hermes Missile

Augments
Backup DNA Bank
Emergency Respirators (So the crew doesn't die too fast)


All systems are buy-able, even the oxygen. I highly recommend you ignore the oxygen system if you see it in the store, as buying it ruins the purpose of the ship.
I tried making a ship devoid of any oxygen system, but no crew members would actually spawn in, so I had to disable it.

How did I get the idea for this ship? Two things:
Suicide Squad http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1386697/
The Euthanasia Coaster https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euthanasia_Coaster

There are no external doors... I think it was intentional, right?

EDIT: are you sure Sensors and Door system rooms are correctly placed? From your picture it seems not (but since it's just an image, it could be misleading).
Has anyone ever considered a Warhammer 40,000 Mod for this game? It would be awesome!

I'd fly it, but chances are I'd be terrible with an oxygen-free ship with no Lanius crew...

Yes, that part is intentional. Since the point is to have no oxygen, external doors wouldn't make sense.

What do you mean "correctly placed"?

I don't use Superliminality, but for what I've understood so far, the purple zones are special, meaning either there is a solid object there or you can place a crew member to do something (es. piloting); I see two purple squares in the Door Subsystem room and the Sensor Sb. room "far" from the related consoles.
I hope you can understand what I am trying to say. :oops:

I see what you mean now. I'm pretty sure I'll have to go back and fix that because the console locations didn't even cross my mind. Thanks.

I do think the weapons may need to be changed though.
