A Ship Developed in Secrecy, Space Engineers - Zugteufel II High Speed Ultrabattlecruiser

The Zugteufel II High Speed Ultrabattlecruiser is a survival warship developed in secrecy as the next iteration of my Zug cruiser ships on Space Engineers, the ship is made for vanilla official servers survival and is able to fulfill all survival needs well while maintaining high combat proficiency

I absolutely love the screens shake blur when the Zugteufel II is charging out from behind the asteroid. It makes it ridiculously menacing like an attacking tiger or something. xD Love it!

That is a really nice. I used the predecessor to this one in a battle with a friend that was testing his new ship. It held up really well even after getting hit repeatedly with railgun fire (The other ship was twice the PCU and firepower) and if I zigged when I should have zagged it would have actually done much better. (I missed my railguns shots repeatedly... sigh, and didn't time their railguns correctly so I stopped dodging just long enough for them to hit me). The redundant systems really impressed me. My hydro ships after a hit or two lose most of their thrust. this never did even when more than half of it was shot off. If it was flown by a more competent pilot it could have won. I didn't post the video since I it wasn't a fair evaluation.

That looks insane, I know my next official server build now ;)

how do you remove all the armor blocks like that, do you just go through manually?

The one thing that kinda puzzles me is the "2:1+ Thrust:Weight Ratio". Thrust:Weight = Force:Mass = Acceleration, in which case the wording sounds odd. Do you mean the ship can lift itself and over it's own weight of additional load in gravity?
EDIT: May edit this more when I've had the time to download the blueprint and check out the ship in game.

One thing I don't get is why are so many of the turrets on the top rear side. It does give a naval battleship look to it. But I assume that side looks towards the enemy the least often.

I feel your ships have developed a style. I know you focus on efficiency (like an engineer; go figure) but I feel like your asthetic is beginning to catch up with your technology. The "real ship" look has really won me over.

...naval Ops music! Fire that wave gun!...hehe cat eye lasers

Looks excellent, I like the rusted surface look too. What have you changed for this new version?

I wonder how the AI update is going to change the meta. Are you worried about the upcoming update? When it comes out do you think you'll use any of the blocks on a Zugteufel MkIII-AI Variant?

I love your design philosophy, but I'm low on DLC. If I pasted it w/o dlc could it be made functional with some slight edits?

Your shipline in general is pretty good but i have some worries about this one, the side profile is too tall in my opinion and it SEEMS (don’t really know cuz i haven’t tested it) so have thin part around the bottom

[oil-pig]

this is getting out of hand, now there are are 2 of them!

[GMLSX]

You've forgotten to list the 2 Jumpdrives.

I give up my new ship somehow has a higher pcu and less weapons 😅

Apparently you summoned all the Germans and Austrian

Nice ship! So efficient. Is the artillery effective against small fast moving drones or would some gatling turrets be a suggested modification for that situation?

[joesantana]

I’m investing in space engineers cus of this video

For those of you wondering, it's pronounced "Zug-tug". All hail Zug-Tug!

[GregorySeko]

Training diabolico xD

yes... this technology is a diabolico training xD

[azean]

Cool ship and video, what does the name mean, Devil Train?
