This ship flies and fights using the Movecraft plugin for Bukkit/Spigot servers. However the weapons are all just redstone devices and will work fine without Movecraft. So feel free to use this in your RP/Adventure maps.

Overview

After the Battle of the Argean Sea (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5wur3G2kM0 for this epic fleet battle), the Shadow was heavily damaged. So the opportunity was taken to overhaul the infamous airship with newer designs and innovative technologies. During the battle the need for heavier armor was clear, so the massive ballast tanks were raised from the belly of the ship to a position higher along the sides, providing protection for the vital areas of the ship. Also, new cannons were designed which were longer range and smaller, but just as powerful as the original iconic autocannons. Using these new guns, the ships compliment of cannons was doubled to 10, with 5 along each side of the ship. Also the secondary fire guns were also extended along each side of the ship, providing additional protection from enemy fighters and torpedoes.

Finally, the ships hangar bay was extended, and now provides room for 5 advanced torpedo fighters as opposed to the 2 old fighter/bomber models. 

Layout 
Main Hatch - Midship, on the top side. Can act as an auxiliary bridge if necessary. Entry leads to a staircase leading down in to the ship. Leads to Captains Quarters, Crew Quarters, and the Ship Stores

Captains Quarters - Luxurious apartments fit for any Pirate King. Iron door can be locked. Huge bed with panoramic views around the ship. Boxes for the Captains most valuable possessions, and an enchanting table and library is also provided.

Ship Stores - Contains mundane necessities for shipboard operation. Food, fuel, and parts. Also a crafting station.

Crew Quarters - bunks for the ships crew. Also has the staircase leading down to the Main Corridor.

Main Corridor - connects the Engine Room in the rear, all the Port TNT Auto-Cannon Decks, the staircase to Crew Quarters midships, and the Main Bridge in the front.

Engine Room - houses the furnaces which fuel the ships motion.

Port TNT Auto-Cannon Decks - for maintenance and re-arming of the Port TNT Auto-Cannons.

Main Bridge - Controls Navigation and all ship-board weapons. Stairs down lead to the Hangar Deck

Gunnery Bridges (port and starboard) - Controls weapons along one of the Shadow's sides. Controls for the fire guns and the tnt cannons are provided. A range limiting device is accessable from here, as well as a fuse control for the cannons.

Hangar Deck - Houses 5 advanced torpedo fighters. In this schematic, the fighters in the hangar bay are Skull Squadron fighters with their characteristic white and black coloring.

Armament

10 x Naval TNT Auto-Cannons (5 on each side)- This is the ships main armament, and from which it gets its much deserved reputation for deadliness. Each fires 7 TNT charges for each salvo, delivering a ship-shattering 30 TNT projectiles per broadside. Fuse duration is configured on the repeaters on the floor of the Gunnery Bridges, and range is configured from the lever on the wall of the Gunnery Bridges.

20 x Fireball Guns (10 on each side) - This is the ships secondary armament, used primarily for defense from enemy fighters or shooting down torpedoes. Can also be used to set enemy warships alight once the Auto-Cannons have pierced their armor. Controlled from the Gunnery Bridges.

Fighter Armament

2 x Firegall Guns - For shooting down other fighters, or setting enemy warships alight once their armor has been pierced.

2 x Torpedos (3 meter) - For piercing enemy warship armor

Hi Bacca. I had a problem with cannons on right side. First two were firing but rest were broken. I check all the wiring and then I found a problem. In your schematic is missing one Yellow wool with repeater on it.
This problem is located above second fighter in hangar bay.

I think you are referring to the range limiter lever? That deffinately shouldn't have blown a hole in the wall. It just lowers the range of the cannons.

I have been wondering why does this and other ships use droppers for storage? Doesnt movecraft support chests?

Actually this ship has no droppers on it, so you may be looking at another one. This ship uses chests for storage. You may be looking at dispensers, but all of the dispensers on this ship are weapons. If you are in the belly of the ship looking at dispensers, thats the hangar bay and those are the guns on the fighters :)

EDIT: some older ships used dispensers for storage, but newer ones won't

I have been using the latest build of movecraft now, and I have been getting pretty interesting bugs with this ship. After I move around a bunch, I keep finding random black wool turning to orange wool. Does this happen to anyone else?

I can tell you it does have orange wool in the superstructure. The orange wool is where the wiring for the weapons is.

No, this is different. I looked around the ship before/after, and the orange wool seemed to be after. It didnt look like wiring, as it appeared to replace random black wool blocks all over the interior.

By the way, you are one of the most awesome developers I have ever heard of. I keep having noobish problems, but you answer them well and faster than anyone ive ever seen. I really love your plugin!
