Arpeggio - Kongo class Battleship

https://youtu.be/b4rYwUxA4Lo

Welcome to the Kongo class Battleship from Arpeggio of Blue Steel, the anime version of the ship. Kongo is the mysterious Fleet of Fog version of the old WWII IJN Kongo class Battleship, impervious to conventional weaponry thanks to their Klien Fields and Wave Force Armor. As such, the Fleet of Fog at large forced Humanity from the sea's after sinking 70% of the humans combined navy during the "Great Naval Battle" of which Kongo played a part in.

Afterwards, Kongo & her sister ships along with other Fleet of Fog vessel's took up patrol duties at the behest of the Admiralty Code to blockade the sea's from Humanities reach until the events of the anime occur. In which Kongo plays the role as a villain and later comes back as a ally.

Equipped with 4 large battleship turrets with 18 assault cannon's each, Kongo packs quite the punch. Added onto that, she is equipped with 8 individual assault cannon turrets, 4 on each side of the ship as broadside mounts. For AA purposes, Kongo is equipped with 6 AA turrets which have 4 autocannon's each. 3 of such turrets are on either side of the ship though they have a nasty habit of shooting at the ship itself. Of course, this is nothing compared to the vessels "Super Gravity Cannon", or what SE's version is being 35 small grid railguns for the sole purpose of causing insane damage to enemy ships.

The best part of this recreation is the vessel's ability to float in water and potentially being able to be used in survival due to everything being piped up, even if the two sections are not (the bottom hull's cargo is seperated off into the back of the vessel for the railguns and small reactors that power them). It is suggested that players who intend to use Kongo as a boss ship for naval servers add shields to the vessel for "realism".

The ship also doesn't float all that well in the rear and so it will lean backwards but it's not a problem at all beyond being a annoyance. For my first naval style ship, it works pretty well huh? I didn't bother with a interior for the ship since well, uh why would I? It has no real interior shown off in the anime and so I didn't bother making one beyond for use in survival sense to load ammunition into the thing. I also thank Tiskarna_ for making the hull for me because my original one was TRASH.

How To Use?

Excellent question as a lot of this ship uses timer blocks to function. Due to the subgrids, the ship has a problem of tilting to the side so occasional presses of "Q" or whatever your equivalent being is needed. Anyway, how to use...

Inside the armored compartment seat you have:
Page 1).
1). Camera
2). Timer Block (Activates the 4 main turrets battle mode, it's needed to unlock their rotor & hinges so they may target things)
3). Timer Block (Activates the side turrets and allows them to operate and shoot hostiles)
4). Timer Block (Activates the AA)
8). Pistons (This is here just because sometimes the ship doesn't close fully so its a manual override to help in that case lul)
9). Timer Block (Opens the hull for the Super Gravity Cannon & activates all the cool stuff)
Page 2).
1). Super Gravity Cannon Camera (Duh, how else are you gonna aim this epic cannon?)
2). Timer Block (Activates the firing sequence, the cannon fires after 3 or so seconds upon timer being pressed. DO NOT PRESS WHILE HULL IS TOGETHER. YOU WILL FIRE INTO YOURSELF. I HAVE DONE THIS MORE TIMES THAN I WOULD LIKE TO ADMIT)

Other seats:
Uh... this is more or less the same but lacks the camera for the front of the ship. Everything is moved up one besides the 9th timer block. They also do not have the piston override to ensure the hull closes.

Survival Friendly: Hell Naw
Blocks: 29,592
PCU: 87,153
Mass: 5,488,482

Other Fleet of Fog vessels will be built, Hiei soon, probably. Leave comments for suggestions on what I should make next for the Fleet of Fog, tysm. And upvote! If you care to anyway...
