Posted July 28, 20177 yr [GBW - Cp 03] - Deland Republic - RON Part A3 - The Wiwaxia Studica Map Grid D6. Somewhere on the internal lake of the continent. As prepared as the forces of the RoN are, there will always be surprises in combat. The goal is to have a reliable counter ready for those surprises ! Designed for quick movement in all kind of waters, including rivers and lake, the FREMM (FREgate Multi Mission) named The Wiwaxia is just such a counter to the CoAC forces. As a FREMM, this Frigate with the ability to launch cruise missiles can totally defend itself with automated 100mm gun on main deck, anti-aircraft missiles on the top roof of the cabin and with anti Submarines mesures, including drifting mines and also with a constant Navy SEAL intervention/boarding team on the breech. She is one of the newest vessels the Deland Republic has launched in order to replace the older and heavier Destroyers still active around the Common Wealth of Southern Territories. With all that equipment, the Wiwaxia, named after the south western county (Land) of The Deland Republic has become a force to be reckoned with. The Deland Republic has sent the Wiwaxia in a counter move against Filace by anticipating their move in Studica E4 and E5 and passed through all Refnor detecting systems thanks to its revolutionary Stealth system. With such a stealth system, she is able to pass through any radar detection and cannot be detected in a civil fleet. Even, during Anti submarines trainings, the crew had to attach some warning systems at the hull in order to mark her for their own subs to avoid collision ! She is now at sea around the shores of Refnor in D6 and is preparing itself for battle. Currently, there is a call from command to launch cruise missiles into multiple locations in grid E5. - Sir We have confirmation of the target in E5 ! Can we begin the firing procedure ? Asked the radio operator. - Yes ! Open the hatch ! Target coordinates ? Answered the Commandant.. - Studica E5 in sub Area A1 and A2 + C1 and C2. Targets aquisition complete. We are waiting confirmation from RON Main Comm-Link... So, since the order from the RON Comm-Link has been transmitted the vessel of nearly 70Studs long aligned itself for fire and prepared its 8 Long Range Cruise Missiles located inside the front main deck, just behind its automated gun. - Targets confirmed sir ! - So let's begin the danse ! FIRE ! SWOOOSH ! SWOOOOSH ! SWOOOOOSH ! Edited July 28, 20177 yr by Faladrin
July 29, 20177 yr The Deland made warships have a unique style of design. The way you build the bridge and the superstructure ( and of course the details inside) . A build like that tells a story without any other explenations!
July 29, 20177 yr Nice! My submarine will not be alone in the seas! I like your concept, the story, but the missile trail leaving the launching pod is superb! Congratulations!

The Deland Republic is the master of the seas ! I am happy you find the missile trail superb even if the target is a COAC country !

The design gave me some headaches but it appeared that the hull technique is not too much different of the technique I am using on sail boats ! Funny, isn't it ? thank you again. It's nice to see my foes appreciate my weapons !
August 2, 20177 yr Nice ship and beautiful design, your ship looks like a real FREMM but in more shorter .

I had to adapt myself with the real FREMM design. It's still 70 studs long and frankly, in one month, I couldn't do longer ! Thank you and welcome to the GBW and , of course , welcome to The Deland Republic and to the RON alliance !

August 19, 20177 yr You’ve been awarded (7) points. Judges’ comments… I was torn looking at this build. The detailing through out is great and you built in a few nice features. You definitely put some time into this and it shows. My issue is the proportions in the dimensions of the ship. It just looks very off to me. The section containing the bridge seems to be too high versus the overall length of the boat. That being said I didn't wanna kill you on the score because I know you put a lot of work into it. And the Navy shows up in force! I like where you were going with this. You created a tough little ship, full of details and a story. Looking at this, my biggest concern is the size. This is just m opinion, but I think it should have been wider. The balance between the superstructure and the rest of the ship looks very off balance. A wider ship base would fix that very quickly. I'm afraid that in waves and rough seas, this might topple over. The other option may be to shorten the superstructure? I guess I'm just thinking out loud here. I do enjoy a good ship, and this is not an exception. It’s fantastic the way you incorporated so many details into her, especially the interior with the SEAL team and their boat. You added many other great details, such as the communication equipment, radars, vents, rockets, etc. The bow design is a unique technique, and I certainly can appreciate how difficult it is to capture a ship’s bow in Lego. Your technique here is promising and I would be interested in seeing if you can refine it any more. The mast could use a little work to add spars with various equipment, but my main issue is with the size of the superstructure relative the rest of the ship. It simply looks too large, almost comically large compared to the stern. I think that extending the stern slightly and lowering the back part of the superstructure would help create a more realistic shape. Thanks for playing!
