Starfield Ship Build: Copinger

 

Copinger

 

Introduction

We recently lost one of our members of the Starfield Anonymous Discord. Before his passing, he posted a Build-Off challenge to make ships based on the Expanse TV series. This prompted me to watch the Expanse and I can totally see why he wanted to build around this incredible series.

This build uses Ballistics and Missiles only. The missiles are ideal for stripping shields and the ballistics are used to finish off the enemy.

This wasn't built with fully developed in-game lore. I designed it to be a smuggler ship but haven't really developed any sort of cast of characters. I didn't know what to name it, so I looked up famous smugglers and came across a British character known as Cruel Copinger. Thus the ship got its name.

Assembly

Assembly should be relatively easy. There is one flip merge to cover the Shield with the aft Cargo hold. Starting from Right to Left, simply place the Porthole, Docker and Missile Launcher directly on top of the component to the left. Place the Shield on top of the Grav Drive.

Select the Top Deck, minus the Cargo Hold, and drag it over to the Main Deck. Flip Merge the Cargo Hold over the Shield.

Group select the new combined layer and drag it over to the Lower Deck.
