Both of these ships are indeed ingame creations! The Imperium vessel Shrike and Monolith vessel Anvil are both available to be spawned into creative without any prior downloads! 1. Open a creative game 2. Open your ship library and navigate to built-ins 3. Select Imperium/Monolith and then the subtab combat ships 4. Type in Saris or the ship's name, and drag it into game! And voila, you can see the ship, observe its internals, modify its organs, and try railfanning yourself!

And thus I was introduced to a new strategy that I was not aware of before. Time to try my hand and a new ship design philosophy!

This video is a life saver. I have a deep love of railguns and when tiny ships started strafing at a snail's pace while my fat ship wouldn't just turn and shoot them, I thought I'd have to give up on them. Now my rails shall elongate and penetrate deeply. A toast to you sir.

I never understood why people in the community said that railguns were OP, and then I discovered the railfanning meta Now I can use this strategy as well, thanks to you :)

As a begginer I'm learning a lot from your, very high quality videos. Thanks for your effort!

I couldn't play this game without you! Thanks for your videos

I just subscribed to your channel. And I only watched the first three minutes. This is the kind of tutorial content that makes my day.

Thorough and concise, nice job!

Excellent video. Masterfully explained by an extraordinary player and teacher alike.

Loved the video, I had to listen to the start twice to confirm what you said, was not expecting that.

Hey dude. Nice vid. Could you please make a detailed video on shield generator setups? Shields can be tricky to set up correctly and I've noticed that some of the better built-in ships seem to have way sturdier shields than my ships. Like, sometimes I'll need 3 shield generators to mimic the effect of what the enemy achieves with just 2 shield generators.

that's a sick looking ship you got there, mate! compared to my squarey flying scrap bathtub fitted with cannon of mine, I think I need to learn more about how I should design my ship.

Very good guide

Awwsome video, please continue making more 💯💯

Can you do a video on optimal crew management / reload times for railfans?

you deserve way more subs

Awesome vid

Team Railgun ftw! ^_^

Curious about mounting rails perpendicular to the direction of your ship and orbiting your target.

Where do you change the color of that circle around your ship and the command buttons? This purple looks amazing. And ofc nice vid! Thx for that!

This strat helped me to add a sniper to my fleet, also helped drastically during career mode, where pirate bases became absolute missile spams

This ship Looks nice Can you make Build Guide about Good ships from early lvls to mid to end lvls?

game: press R for rotate me: PRESS R FOR RAILFAN

*0:03* We are three seconds into the video and I'm already laughing uncontrollably. That's when you know you're in for a treat. Anyways... Yes! I *needed* a guide on Railfans! Even if I'm not that much of a meta enthusiast, I still like building railfans and trying to make them look as unique as possible even if that's not their point, whilst maintaining their shredding abilities. But I always struggled a lot with controlling them. For example, I always fell into the trap of rotating railfans too quickly for their own good, making them hit their projectiles in different places and hit the part I was aiming at from different directions, which ruins their whole point of being a ship shredder. This guide really helped me, thanks. .....Also, could we mention how straight up gorgeous that Imperium-style railfan is? I wish my building and more importantly painting skills were 10% as good...

That ship is awesome, is it on the workshop?

IIRC, didn't someone figure out you can set up automatic railfanning into your combat defaults?

Make one absolutely MASSIVE railgun. Like, a floating superweapon.

...Suddenly I'm imagining a battle station with multiple arms and engines set up to make it into a fidget spinner of death.

I was hoping I could see how that ship is setup but it doesn't appear to be on the workshop. 😢

epic

How did you spawn the ship in for testing?

Damn that ship looks amazing, any chance you would provide a download for it?

hey could you post that red ship on the workshop?

Any chance you'd share the design to your ship somewhere? :D

Why do you have to weave left and right? Cant you just leave it in place and theyll fire when ready?

So I just need to make a UFO with rails on all sides.

Hey could you share your design? @saris

Hello! Could you please name the release date of cosmoteer please.

This dude sounds exactly like I thought he would.

You shouldn't use the word 'Misfire' to describe when your weapon is missing it's target, that word actually means another thing.

Was wondering what I was doing wrong for Railguns to be such massive dogshit, it's because the AI has downs syndrome! Good to know.
