So I got really hyper, and thought this was a good idea. Basically, it's if anyone who's shown an interest in my page (for whatever reason) wants to try and take out one of my ships with their custom vessel, there's a way to do it which I'm figuring our right now because I just got really pumped listening to epic music Rules: 1:no invincible ships (ie entirely made of obsidian) 2:you can pick any ship of mine to fight (within reason!!!) 3:no-non explosive weapons (ie ANTIMATTER MISSILES NNRHG) 4:ships have to actually be yours, not (for example) a modified version of AirshipsEverywhere's dauntless that has lasers for freckles and cyclones for fans. It's scary enough already You can either PM me the link or run the battle on your own world, either way I'd be interested to see the results In case anyone's wondering why I'm doing this, it's because 1; I haven't seen all the technologies out there and I don't like not knowing stuff, it's like that one itch in the middle of your back you just can't scratch, 2; I'm bored and it's 1am and 3: BECAUSE SCIENCE!!!!!,!! good luck ;)

Just wondering... How would a (n airship) replica of HMS Caroline fair, but with drop shields and an automatic fountain I call the "Ejaculator" that does nothing but spurt eight-shot condensed cycles (the TNT takes up all of one block) along the prow. It's a super-long railgun like accelerator. The phase shift can warp the shot past solid entities and into the block behind it. Destroys obsidan with only five cycles. It's 1.5.2 though, so would you know of any restriction that would prevent its use in your versions? All I know is unless you can phase shift your shots past my drop shields, they will explode harmlessly inside a wall of water. Practical invinciblity against conventional TNT  weapons and very resistant to ignited weaponry. And all this in the space of a then light cruiser, now frigate size vessel.

Just the basic on phase shifting ignited TNT. Each flask of ignited TNT, when travelling at +50bps, will become a non-solid enntity and it will travel through solid entities (including other blocks) and all non-solid entities. This method is stopped by two layers of armour, though soon the explosion will tear through all vanilla blocks and solid entities.

SHHHHHHHH DONT TELL PEOPLE, ITS A SECRET WEAPON as soon as you reply to this comment i'll delete this thread and move to PM (aka yes i already have it don't worry the shields won't work)
(and yes i know how to counter it)
(you really need to consider an upgrade)
I don't use water shields or obsidian because i think that they are just cheating (they are penetrable though in more ways than you might think............. ;] )
and no, it doesn't become a non-solid entity, it just moves so fast that the game thinks it's in more than one place at once
be cool if the whole ghosty thing was actually the case though

any restriction? not really apart from the fact that the defences are way better in 1.7+

btw, if/when you do upgrade (we use 14w03b) do you want to join the alliance of techy people we have in our game (CC) basically space strategy in minecraft

Also, I'd love to get involved in the war. The problem is, my stuff is architecture. I design yachts and small naval vessels as part of a marine architecture course I'm in. I'm no good as an engineer to be honest.

I have a semi-auto airburst cannon with ranges beyond 180 blocks if that helps. The TNT keeps on exploding while airborne, so only the shorter shots hit the ground. Powerful, but pretty much useless.

you can easily grt better at it if you want-just look at my first ship compared to my last
when engineering, never look for a specific result,myou'll miss everything else
from what youve been saying in the comments it sounds like you definitely know aht you're talking about so i'd see no real problem with it

currently we're mucking around in 1.7.10 movecraft btw
