Space Outlaw challenge

11.8k jlewisifer  7.5 years ago

If you were a space outlaw, what would your trusty spacecraft look like? what features would it have? what would you use to escape galactic patrols, smuggle cargo, take it to your enemies? Is it capable of deep space ops? Can it enter planetary atmospheres? Would you use it like a futuristic Robin Hood or a dastardly villian or just a scavenger down on luck?
Build something you'd use, made by you (don't take other people stuff and please give credit where due). XML modding allowed and encouraged. No necessary downloaded mods please.

All entrants upvoted,
1st place: 10 upvotes
2nd Place: 7 upvotes.
3rd Place 5 upvotes.
Entrants will be rated out of 10 for the following categories:
1: does it have a realistic space outlaw application? Can it smuggle? Is it quick? Can it defend itself?
2. Creativity (even if its a replica, creativity in build technique, etc)
3. Features and Functions (does it do stuff!)
4. Fun Factor.
Challenge will close 25 June 2017.
Up to 3 entrants per person
Thanks for your time, and i hope you have fun participating.
please make entrants a successor for ease of tracking. Thank you.
For inspiration, I'm thinking of the likes of the Raza (dark matter), the serenity (Firefly), the millennium falcon, Star Lord's ride (guardians of the galaxy) etc.

    @Foxophonist I really liked yours but for some reason it kept blowing up when using the guns. Awesome design, reminded me of the ship from Ratchet and Clank

    @DatGuy117 I'd go for the classic Cobra Mk III myself. That, or my trusty Eagle.

    Ooh, I've got some ideas for this... You guys ever played Elite Dangerous? Or my personal favorite of the series, the classic Frontier Elite 2?
