Ridiculous ship builds

[Rubbernuke]

Scary stuff! What would happen if I filled my Python with missiles and torpedoes like that?

Python from Hell! Scariest thing is, this one would actually work... you may meet me in one someday... >

PS I changed the shield gen to 6A and re-prioritized my shield cells... still works.

Edit: Actually better than 'Python from Hell'; how about 'Anaconda's Bane'?

Nice build! Scarily realistic enough to work cracking elite condas.

The Scoop-a-thon!
*May swallow entire stars whole.

Confusingly, it takes surprisingly little modification to turn that thing into a heavy-duty mobile refueling station:

You might take a loss on ammunition for those things though, even as much as you can make from E-Condas.

Edit: Actually come to think of it, I doubt your distributor would be up to firing those things. Maybe not even once. And if it did, it might cause instant heatstroke... worth a try though.

Fit a heat sink launcher and fire that after each shot maybe?

Rockets are ridiculous.

Except that video was from January. Rockets aren't even that powerful anymore.

Didn't see anything quite like it, so why not?

Using the magic of ED shipyard, I have devised an idea of why not make builds that are both silly and completely unorthodox and probably won't work?

Two such examples;

Missiles. Everywhere. Why? Because why not?

Fastest Type 9 in the galaxy, with the biggest fuel scoop available. Gotta Scoop fast.

LOL! I've never worried too much when it warns 'Incoming Missile'... now I'm terrified!

How about this one?

http://www.edshipyard.com/#/L=70Y,,2-5KA09Y8S2C6u9s,5L65JY5H_5GQ5Es5Es4ws2jw2UI

Make the longest-endurance exploration T9 in the universe, run out of money right before you buy the fuel scoop. Travel halfway across the galaxy, then park it in a star for 9 hours to fill it up!

Edit: Oh criminy, been done already. XD

The T9 is crippled by its huge mass and even with economy routing you would need to refuel a few times just to reach the core. But here's a ship that might just make it to Sagittarius A* after which you can spend a mere 7.5 hours refuelling for the trip home http://www.edshipyard.com/#/L=706,,2-3I8S9Y8S2CD88I,5JY5H_5H_5H_5GQ5GQ5GQ5Es5Es5Es4ws

Pure Cargo Asp... Sure it "only" carries 120tons of cargo... but it can do a 26ly run in one jump!

I'm bumping this, because I've created something I've called the Prismatic Missile Monster.

Didn't think you could get that jump range out of a T9. Time to go exploring!


Edit

You can actually go down to a 2A power plant and still power the ship.

You run an exploration Eagle too?!? I thought I was the only one!
