Ready! Aim! Oh yea.. we haven't built that yet.

So the ship realistically (or atleast being as realistic as you can when talking about spaceships) can now fly and look.. somewhat like a ship (if we're willing to call that a defining attribute) however, anyone you knows anything about sci fi can tell you, every time a ship goes into space, there is usually some sort of space battle (See; 'Lost in Space', 'Star Wars', 'Star Trek', 'Serenity', 'Stargate', for details.), now everyone loves a good space battle, however the length of a space battle is usually determined on how big/powerful your weapons are in comparison to the other guys(or girls for sexual equalities-sake) So as in our case we have none, and robotwars style ramming is out of the question we're gonna need some, and as weaponry is my favourite.. let's make them big.

Unfortunately I've only yet designed one sort of turret, influenced by the ones seen during the Deathstar trench scene during Episode 4.



And, as you can see, the base of the turret follows the same style as the engines on the back. This I believe is the kind of thing which will make it look rather good after everything is finished.

More coming soon.
