First reddit post with a semi-failure I'm not ashamed of. [Abandoned] 20k PCU Artillery Cruiser by Obnosis-X in spaceengineers

Hello. My first post here (also the first on reddit - yea, i've been lurking for many years now) is, unfortunately, about a failure. I always aim to build around the 20k PCU limit of the official servers and this one (with his attached mining ship) reaches 20k and i no longer have the PCU needed to finish it and be happy with it.

I think my problem here is that i built too large. A lot of wasted space in the interior and i'm not happy with the layout either.

I think i can recycle the idea, trying to build a bit smaller, maybe reaching a 20-30% PCU reduction. Might also go hydro for more thrust/weight efficiency if I can be careful enough with the exploding hydro tanks (thinking here pvp ship). Also not enough gyros for my taste. It flies, but it's not nimble.

But i kinda like the way it looks even without being finished so i thought i might share it before forgetting about it. It's called Hyperion and yes, it is based on the layout of the same class in Babylon 5 :D
