Centurion-V Corvette

Blue Phantom Chronicles - Transport - Armed Transport


The Cophuranee Centurion-5 is a bulky and heavily armored assault transport capable to launch attacks on enemy targets or deploy troops in enemy territory. While light transports like ShiCon Dynamics' GT-series put focus on high velocity and/or parts stealth technology, the Centurion is a truthful blockade runner, designed to punch through anything that is thrown at it. Its extensive offensive and defensive weaponry deal out large amounts of damage, while powerful shields and armor plating allow it to withstand severe punishment. It's large transport capacity can hold up to half a batalion of troops or supplies.

Dev notes & Origins

This design started off as a sort of Advanced Gunboat. I even imported it into OPTech, but soon felt it it was too small and would have almost purged it. For a long time it just laid there, going unter the working title Omega-class Shuttle until a few years back when I started fleshing out the interior for various other ships and eventually returned to this one as well, basically as a mini series of medium transport ships, each somewhat distinguishable by design and each with a fully modelled interior (Note: That, of course was before I started building those ships in Space Engineers).


So, I renamed this one Centurion and made it the GT-series' equivalent as Assault Transport within the Cophuranee Navy, falling in line with similarly designed ships like the XT-1 Viper, Patriot Frigate or Inferno Cruiser
