[b]An artillery cruiser built entirely around a bunch of piston jolt guns.[/b][/code]
                                                                                 

The X-400 is just a [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2407655607]big fat gun[/url]. Well, eight of them to be exact.

It can fly on planets, has a bit of interior, a few turrets, jump drives and stuff. But really non of that matters, it's just a bigass gun that can destroy pretty much everything. Try it out, it has probably the most powerful vanilla guns atm.
Of course you could just replace them with rocket launchers or gatling shredders or whatever, the rest of the ship is as blank as it can be, no DLC, no further subgrids etc.

The guns only work in experimental mode, they will probably blow up otherwise.

The ship does not need any DLCs. It does however have a ton of subgrids. Technically it should be possible to weld it all up with the multigrid projector plugin, but I can't vouch for it not blowing up.

[b]Does probably not work with the multigrid projector plugin and weaponcore.[/b]
