Soul Crusher – Upgradeable Combat CV – RE
This is Soul Crusher, an upgradeable combat CV made specially for Reforged Eden. This is a unique, one of a kind CV, capable of being spawned at 2.1M CPU (no quantums or auxiliary cores required). Yet, it also has enough upgrade space to max well over 16M CPU!
UPDATED FOR RE 1.7 – Turret adjustments have been made to keep Soul Crusher under 2.1M CPU, with the new changes in 1.7. Additionally, 4 shield boosters were added (3 capacitors & 1 charger). I have not made dedicated upgrade locations for the larger boosters. There is a ton of room in the hangar to add them as you desire. There is enough room for all small & medium size, plus 2-3 of the large boosters.
In addition to being extremely upgradeable, this combat ship is also light & agile. At spawn, it is quick enough for the standard roll strategy (space bar & Q/E) to avoid incoming enemy CV fire, as it rolls at 60 deg/s.
Ship already includes:
– 9 Positron & 4 Rocket Turrets
– 2 Artillery Launchers & 5 Positron Cannons
– Advanced Shield Generator
– Advanced Warp Drive
– Long Range Radar
– 8 total 320k storage systems (5 ammo, 2 container, 1 ore/wood)
– All health stations, armor locker, shower, O2 station
Built in upgrade options:
– 139 Total Heavy Turrets – 10 Designated for Artillery Turrets
– 21 Total Manual Fire Weapons
– Bastion or Regenerative Shield
– Antimatter Warp Drive & Tank
– 20 Drive Thrusters (upgrade spots marked)
– 63 Dedicated Quantum / Auxiliary Core Slots
– 4 Advanced Generators & 2 Fusion Reactors
– 18 Grow Plots
When fully upgraded, this ship will be over 16M total CPU. When also fully loaded with ammo, it can weigh over 25 kt. However, even with the added weight of all upgrades, you’ll still be able to spin circles around your enemies while quickly tearing them to shreds!
PLUS, this ship has a huge hangar system, and a rooftop landing pad, which should be enough space to bring all your support ships. Since the Soul Crusher has so much thrust power, the added weight of the docked ships will be no problem during tough battles!
Heavily reinforced with decoys! There are 3 separate generators buried inside the nose of the ship. The first is hidden behind at least 5 layers of pure Xeno. The 2nd is behind additional layers of xeno, steel, and the front drive thruster. Behind that 2nd decoy generator are many additional layers of xeno, steel, & heavy windows. The 3rd decoy is behind the fuel tanks, just a few blocks from the shield & gravity generator room. It will take A LOT of damage to destroy this one. I recommend shield fighting if possible, but it is fully capable of taking many hits with all of those layers of protection and well placed decoys.
Upgrade LCD’s now added internally in the hangar, to help with upgrades.
This ship can easily handle end-game content too! In one photo, Soul Crusher is shown next to a Xen’uan Carrier, that i solo killed in only a few minutes.
