Don't mess with the US.

I was looking through the hard drive on my old computer and found an image of a ship I designed a long time ago. And decided to post it here.
Anyone else ever design ships? Then post them. I would like to see what other people have thought up.

As you can see, it's lego.
Principal features: 5 detachable attack craft (4 red, on rear corners; 1 black in rear, facing down) axial gauss cannon 4 light guns
Advanced torpedo delivery system: four axial tubes, double length four independently aimable pairs of tubes All tubes are bidirectional, and can link end to end for greater launch speed. Principal configurations: Bombardment: four quad length axial tubes for high speed launch Assault: eight double length axial tubes for rapid fire Defensive: independently aimable tubes at various angles, all further from the center axis than shown; ship will spin up in this configuration so the fire is not restricted to one plane.

Oo, I got just the thing for this thread. I play with 100% custom made ships in GalCiv2, and have made quite a few gems in that game.
Drool over Nephele, my colony ship. I don't know how to make animated .gifs, so unfortunately you can't see all the little rings rotating around the ship.

Suddenly my battleship doesn't look so amazing.

It is internal Galactic Civilization editor . 3rd expansion + Kryo's Hull System Mod. To be honest, Galactic Civilizations 2 is inferior in most ways to Civ 4. I've spent more time on the game's ship editor than I have actually playing the game.

Why it uses magnets is because the primary weapon is a Free Electron Laser.
If you want a ship that uses Antimatter (considering we don’t even know the characteristics of it yet) then feel free to design one.

We do know the characteristics of antimatter, and from the intrinsic point of view it's just like matter.
We can already contain it. This containment, incidentally, involves large magnets.
Energy production is not what you use magnets for. So it's like comparing apples to bricks.
