Starfield Builds: Cardinal Sin

-

 Cardinal Sin


Introduction

The Cardinal Sin is a light Class-A vessel designed for a single player and maybe a companion or two. It was constructed from a Crimson Fleet Ghost and can be constructed anywhere where Deimos parts are sold. This vessel was constructed on a Level 8 character.


Lore/Head Canon

The Cardinal Sin is a prototype HopeTech scout-fighter design that was taken as a prize by Crimson Fleet pirates and subsequently lost to a hunter from the Tracker's Guild. It was last seen in the Bessel system.

    Oh that’s nice. You know my affinity for small ships. Very nice design. Certainly worth a try for us players that don’t go the companion route.

      Thanks. She's certainly more of a starter build than anything you might want to take into Serpentis on Very Hard. Though with a few upgrades, she might just kick some Va'runn butt.

Starfield Build: Star Vault

  Nova Galactic Vault-Tec: Star Vault   Introduction Okay, @Mtfreeman (on the Starfield Anonymous Discord) made a passing comment about making a Vault-Tec space vault. Here is my answer to that comment (he never made it an official challenge). I give you the Star Vault.  My operating hypothesis is that Vault-Tec got a hold of some Zetan technology and did their absolute best to duplicate form and function within the scope of then current technology. They paired up with the Nova Galactic in their version of reality to create the most powerful ship that they could and put aboard a  small compliment of Vault occupants. Head Canon/Lore In the spirit of the malleable Fallout canon, this ship is equipped with anachronistic Engines, Reactor, Grav Drive, Weapons, and Shield. It's insidious experiment was to test the occupants' ability to adapt by Grav Jumping once every 24 Standard/Earth hours to a random star. The very few occupants exited the Star Vault after a few of these random j

Starfield Builds: Celestia

Celestia Introduction The Celestia is a B-class multi-purpose vehicle. It is a competent fighter, cargo transport, and passenger ship all at once. I don't remember which ship I built it from, but the Fuel Tank is beyond the character's Ship Design skill. It was most certainly a pirate ship of some sort, with "pirate" meaning any of the antagonistic factions out there. The Celestia is greatly inspired by the Galaxy-class Freighter from the Wing Commander: Privateer game from a couple of decades past. That ship had much more narrow engine nacelles and they were mounted on thin rails. I think that this ship captures the overall feel of the Galaxy-class within the Starfield universe.   Head-canon Lore The Celestia is a Galactic-class civilian transport built by the Deimos Staryard in the Sol system. The Galactic-class is a sleeper favorite of explorers, bounty hunters, and other adventurers who roam the galactic highways.   General Overview The Celestia is truly a Jack-of

Starfield Builds: Redshift

  Redshift Introduction WARNING : This ship uses a fair amount of merging techniques to get the engine pods to look like they do. Rather than try to explain each step, please visit Crimson Flyboy's tutorial video on merging . I used the drop merging technique on those pieces . That out of the way, this is my "entry" for the Discord Ship Building challenge. As this is an informal challenge, the only rule was to build a ship for a member of Constellation.  I chose Noel, as she is the least developed character in Constellation. I don't play nice with the Constellation members, but I know that Noel is not a companion and, according to an online source, doesn't really have much of a backstory. That was perfect for me, as it gave me room to invent something whole cloth. And, if later on Bethesda gets around to giving Noel something more substantive than being told to shut up by Sarah, there are a whole lot of universes out there in the multiverse. My Noel dwells in one
