Plutus M2W Warmod RE

SUMMARY: Compact Positron Gunship; CV; Helios Module; Reforged Eden; Mid/End-Game

PRIMARY ROLE: It's mean and nasty. A portable tiny Deathstar. The WARMOD does well against larger ships like Pirate Deathmaw Frigates or even far more dangerous foes (see final screenshot). It has 15K very-fast recharging shields, the platform is fast and agile, and it packs a BIG punch. Get in, do a lot of damage, get out, recharge, repeat.

FIREPOWER

• 12 Positron Cannons, forward facing, arranged like the Death Star :)
  
• 4 Positron Turrets, Heavy
  
• 2 Minigun Turrets, Heavy
  
• 2 Missile Turrets, Heavy

OTHER FEATURES

• Full combat steel
  
• Advanced shields w/ 4 chargers & 4 capacitors, 15K capacity w/ max recharge
  
• 2x 320K cargo bays, 1x 40K cargo bay (the Gear Locker), and 2x 320K ammo bays
  
• Full medical suite
  
• Separate bridges for docking & combat operations
  
• Advanced warp
  
• Gravity generator
  
• SV landing deck. Must be cleared prior to Helios docking.

LATEST UPDATES:

• 5/20/22 - Gun arrangement modified to make better use of available CPU and simplify loadout. There are now only 4 types of ammo required, and most of the weapons are positron-based. Added two crew members to keep the final CPU count below 2.1 million.
  
• 5/21/22 - Restructured top deck for larger SV parking
  
• 5/21/22 - Removed 1 Armor Locker & moved the remaining Armor Locker closer to the elevator (port side).
  
• 5/21/22 - Removed 2 Heavy Gatling Turrets & 2 Flak Turrets, Maxed out Charging Capacitors (4) and Chargers (4)

COMBAT NOTES:

• The WARMOD can take on some pretty big opponents: pirate carriers & other large ships with lots of heavy weapons. Trick is to turn auto-brake OFF ('I' key) and strafe to avoid incoming fire, while remaining on target with the primary weapon. If you can avoid getting hit by long-range heavy damage dealers, the Positron Cannons will eventually take their shields down after a few strafing runs. Then use them to take out turrets, thrusters, and burn holes in their hull. Make sure you strafe a lot, and change directions while strafing, to confuse targeting.
  
• Speed boost ('Shift' key) and flying backwards will get you out of a fight faster and safer then turning tail and running.
  
• Flying this ship is like being a Piranha (yes, the fish). You can take BIG bites out of things. Don't let the size your teeth cause you to forget you're a minnow among whales. Fly dangerous but fly careful, Captain! o7

COMPATIBLE HELIOS BLUEPRINTS

Try an Aurora Light Carrier as a mobile space station with four Helios Modules docked: (1) Plutus M2, (2) Plutus M2W Warmod, (3) P Module RE, and (4) SM20 Cargo.

The WARMOD is directly based on the jrandall Plutus M2 Helios frame and uses the same thruster configuration. In its role as a miner, the M2 rips apart asteroids like a boss's boss and flies like it was born to be a fighter. I've never (legitimately) had more resources in Empyrion. It takes a lot of work to build one in SP survival, but after that, it's easy street, baby. No, seriously. Get one.

The Aurora Helios Carrier RE is something you can legitimately afford in a SP survival game in this lifetime, so long as you have already acquired an ingot-generating monster like the Plutus M2. Plus it holds 4 Helios modules, which is plenty.

Try the Helios P Module 1 RE for storage and production. It has a silly amount of advanced constructors, as well as small constructors, de-constructors, and quite a few storage bays. I usually transfer stuff I bring in from missions for processing or recycling in the Helios P Module. Try the SM20 Helios RE Cargo Module for mass storage.
