ADDENDUM - Not sure how i missed it but i did, and thanks to all of the community who brought it to my attention..The brig is also an area where you will be able to store valuables and such things, a mini vault of sorts. That being said, i still would prefer a T3 med bed there in its place! A POINT ABOUT MEDICAL VEHICLES ( NURSA - C8R etc ) Unless i wanted to fit the Ironclad out as a medical ship, i do not wish to sacrifice cargo/vehicle potential for this ship with a medical vehicle. Thanks to the community for putting me on the straight and narrow o7!! STAR CITIZEN has a new concept and boy does it look good! Drakes Ironclad is a ship that i am very happy to see joining us in the future! With two variants of this concept ship availible, the uses and scenarios this ship could find itself in should prove truly worth while. But what do you guys think of the Drake Ironclad?

You won't need a medbed, just park a Nursa rover/C8R in the hold. like the Liberator as well as the Ironclad, they are both very good ships, similar, but not the same goals and if we can have more than one type of mining ship or exploration ship, Y not any other ? Diversity right ?

Huge mistake you melted your Polaris it can replace not only Ironclad but also liberator and even BMM. Polaris is a best freighter ship its 166m not so big as you may think but it can do soo mutch with its hangar just compare its hangar to ironclads cargo area if you need transort ground vehicles such as ballista you can load them with SRV in Polaris hangar if you need take cargo you can load it in polaris hangar (if cargo not fragile)for fragile cargo you have Polarises dadecated cargo room 500+scu it has same size Qt drive as Ironclad so you spend same ammount QT fuel as Ironclad. Also you have cap radar to avoid potential danger you have cap size shield and you protected waaay better then in ironclad. Who cares about crew size you can manage crew how you want and use them smart for cargo runs you can use same crew size as ironclads crew size. Dont listen ppl who tells you how many ppl need to crew Polaris they just dont want competition and want as less Polarises owners as it can possible be. Think with your head dont listen ppl.o7

Once we have Pyro and several other systems, then you will need the large/Cap ships to traverse these large systems. Stanton is one of the smallest systems in the game and designed small for testing. With Pyro on it's way and more systems coming, a ship like the Ironclad is almost a must have for a Firefly/Serenity nomadic style of play. Having a very flexible jack of most trades, depending on what you put inside the 1500 SCU hold is great. Whether it be a fighter for bounties, a ROC/Prospector/vulture, a C8R/Nursa or any combination. Myself, I want to do the long haul cargo runs and while doing that, explore opportunities to discover derelicts, rescue others, scan for resources etc. The Ironclad has extreme long range, 4 large shields and armored. I really hope CIG goes the rout of individual bunk rooms like the Corsair. The Ironclad could also be a mobile central hub for a land base, that can be moved from one resource rich environment to another. I feel that I will be able to pick up almost any mission in my journeys through the Deep dark of the verse.

I love the way this ship looks as well FYI, Ironclad = Fatterpillar Ironclad Assault = Angry Fatterpillar One thing the Liberator should get, is the same kind of manufacturing station the Angry Fatterpillar gets, but for small ships, not land vehicles.

@ParagonFangXen

Ай бұрын

Technically, xxs vehicles and xxs share components, so the Ironclad is capable of manufacturing ship components as long as tbey are size 0 or size 1 it would seem. QnA will hopefully detail this to us for certain.

The largest selling point of the Assault for me was "component fabrication" - looking at future plans, the ability to repair, or craft things aboard a ship is going to be at a minimum a convenience, and at worse a necessity (depending where you are, and if that place offers even low-level crafting ability at all), and IIRC there's only a handful of ships we know are supposed to have any kind of repair/crafting facility aboard, pretty much restricted to sub-capital and up size ships. (currently, probably temporarily only, on the Vulture) We already know storms will be a thing that will "keep players from just using ships" for everything; and the addition of "roads" between a main facility and it's extended outposts. Storms and roads combined, being able to drop into a hot-zone and operate a few ground vehicles out of an Assault sounds like it's going to make ground/FPS gameplay a fantastic money printer when all systems are implemented. And yes, blades; with 4x remote turrets the Assault + Blades should be capable of offering at least minimum self-protection in the event an AI ship shows up to harass it. (not to mention, if AI crew become a thing, assigning them to the manned turrets will further boost it's defense capability.) Detachable command module: Despite the claims it's "only for emergencies" it's really going to be a great mobility enhancer, being it's own ship that can operate after the main ship has landed; and I hope the CM will retain the tractor beam on the Assault as that will allow it to retain some use of the top-loading cargo bay by letting the CM function as a parasite loader. (Or if CIG find a way to allow small vehicles like the Mule to lift at least 16scu containers.) "32 Drop seats" so, honestly I wasn't expecting that part, and I really don't care about it; I'm guessing that is conceptually there to allow the vehicle crews a place to strap in for landings; since 4+1 Nova tanks would be 9 (12) crew alone. That leaves about 20 drop seats for additional people that could easily be a single drop-team, or mix in a few extra engineers for added repair of ground vehicles. But, big butt! - 32 Drop seats, and the classification "heavy dropship" tells me there MIGHT be an armory somewhere on the assault that won't be on the standard cargo. (I'd guess it'll be up front in that center "room" along side about 12 or so drop seats.) TLDR: The Drake Ironclad is the first true competitor to the C2/M2 class of ship, while the C2/M2 will likely always be faster and better handling, and more (pilot) armed ships for their size, the Ironclad is on paper, better in almost every way for the same function; carries more cargo or more vehicles (Assault and Cargo), and the assault comes with dedicated facilities to extend ground operations, where the C2/M2 are just going to drop and scoot. And for the (Current price), it's easily worth it if you are looking for a ship to do what a C2/M2 can do. On the note of "32 jump seats" - CIG have said all ships will have life-support systems designed to handle the expected amount of people aboard a ship, so, should that indicate that drop-ship class ships contain extra/more powerful life-support systems with expectation that they can/will support larger groups of people aboard than just the crew? I'd really like to know that a ship with a crew of 6 getting 32 dedicated seats for "passengers" will also have a life-support system that's upgraded to handle that change. (As an aside, the "rearm refuel" garage, despite everything in the marketing saying it's for supporting GROUND vehicles, I have my suspicions that snubs and very small fighters will be capable of landing in the garage and getting rearmed and repaired; even if it's just a Fury or P52/72, that's a massive extension to how much of a threat a fully supported Ironclad Assault could be while just, landed; I assume the Assault is likely the test-bed for CIG to start testing "carriers" since it contains everything it would need to function as a very small one)

I would absolutely love having the flexibility to pilot the ship from the command deck but other than that it’s a fantastic concept!

It sold me when i realized it could fit a Vulture with plenty of room to spare inside. This ship compliments every aspect i currently enjoy in this game and the gameplay that i look forward to in the future. It is by far the most expensive purchase ive ever made for a video game and i have no regrets. Ive played SC so much that they earned this one from me! Just wish the loaner was better than just a Caterpillar.

I don't believe CIG said it was a brig up front. They just called it a secure area. My guess is it will work like all other 'secure areas' in cargo ships where it will be invisible to scans. One question I have, and I asked in the Q&A thread, but I'm worried it'll get washed away and not answered: Can the tractor beam gantries/beams/whatever in the Ironclad be retracted? If not, that will make it very difficult to safely land a medium fighter in there the way you can land one on the Liberator. Or if it the spacing is wide enough, it might be okay for one medium fighter, but no more.

The "brig" you mention is meant to be secure cargo. It will have tighter security with the "cages" being able to be locked so that hired on help can't access it. Also, the spec sheet says it will have 3 size 2 tractor beams. I bet that port side station on the front will be the controls for the third tractor beam, which I think will be forward facing to grab boxes and put them just inside for the overhead tractor beams to stack.

I for one really need to know what features the Ironclad Assault does NOT have versus the base Ironclad. Retractable roof and tractor beams missing on a 1000+ SCU cargo ship would be a deal breaker for me. It would be horrible to load/unload and therefore use for anything but this niche ‘ground assault’ use case, and would relegate it to a vastly inferior ship. Otherwise though, it’s what I’m looking for which is a defensive and offensive armoured cargo ship that could also be used for.. ahem.. less legal cargo activities.

It's not a cargo ship. It's a ground assault ship. I think it is missing those things because there wouldn't be a use for them. It has space for tonks. I just don't think it has that modularity or multi-role functionality. I understand that a cargo ship with more functionality is attractive. I think that's just the downside of this ship.

I don't see it as breaking the rules. There are already multiple ships from multiple manufacturers that fill similar roles, some are better than others at particular tasks. I think the Iron Chad fills a multi purpose role that is like the M2, and the Liberator. It won't be as good as the liberate at carrying the sheer number of ships/vehicles, but it can do the job if it needs to, to an extent. It does seem to be a better version of the M2, but the M2 is going to fly better in atmo.
