Speaking Up as the Helmsman Of The Apollyon's Fury Losing the ravager was a kick in the teeth for everyone, it's large piece of history just wiped from the map and we're sad to see her go out like this, but at least she went out in rider fashion and went down swinging. The grandmother to modern battleship tactics indeed. She was a wonderful example of the worth a battleship can bring to the fight, even if she did have a bit too much junk in the trunk. Bit sad both Titan classes no longer are operational but at least the wrecks can be kept together as a monument on a tile or something Rest Easy Ravager, Rode hard, and were put away hard.
She will be missed by all. Current riders, Former riders and even those who killed her will remember her.. I’m both proud and sad at the same time, but she’ll forever ride in the great sky’s above
I'd like the record to show that the "Rhodor Maneuver" was a result of exasperation and alcohol XD Also, I'm extremely proud that I never lost Winchester.
It was an honor flying with ya when I could Admiral, truely you’ll be missed o7 On a separate note tho, you should’ve made it a rule/Requirement for whoever flys the Rav to always be drunk.. probably would’ve saved her
amazing video, raveger will be missed. The ship that motivated me to make snek what it is. Can't wait for a video like this about snek whenever it has run its course. (also props to all the ravenger builders that made and fixed that ship time and time again)
The OG Rider Gunbrick, and sort of the Definition of Rodor´s Fighting Style (If you can, bring a Missile to a Gunfight). I very much hope she gets rebuild when her wreck recovered.
Can't tell you how captivated I am by this series. I have binged basically the entire series from S1 EP1, up to current in about 2 weeks if that. This is hands down the most entertaining show I've seen in a very long time. And seems to have more work put into it than a lot of big budget TV series and Movies. And all of this is just for fun. And I'd assume that's why this series does so well and is as entertaining as it is.
i really do hope they rebuild the ravager. The ship who dueled the levy along side the eternity. Maybe do a plotline about it, finding its wreckage, salvaging its main hull, and returning it to the riders to be refitted and repaired (rebuilt essentially but with elements of the original, to honor it) Would be cool. Its a special ship. The snek is getting there too.
@@admiralmallard7500 Thats why i think a story behind a recreation would be needed, similar, if you've seen it, between one piece's going merry and sunny.
@@admiralmallard7500 Well thats what makes it so interesting as a plot device. Something to fight over its recovery, since the ship was successful, it'd be in some factions interest to learn from it, and ofc for the riders and perhaps EFN, sentimental value.
EFN don't have nearly enough people to operate the thing. And in general we've already resurrected a ton of ships. It's hard to let go of stuff but there's always better
Oh damn, I just got recommended your 1 year video and said "this guy's sounds a lot like BF, pretty much exactly"... Good to see another passion of yours 👍🏻
Farewell to the ship that got me interested in Space Engineers, May she rest in peace, and may the CPR be torn to shreds by the EDF or other factions in future battles or conflicts. I still think whoever was in charge of her during her final battle should have been fired for losing the very heart and soul of the Riders. Rest in peace, Ravager! Rest in torment, fallen CPR vessels.
Such a lot of tonnage was destroyed this season! How can this system hope to compete against Earth? Maybe next season could have an episode focusing a little on industrial things showing civilians rebuilding after the last war.
Also I was a bit proud of the Khans this season, trying to do what they promised, but then they got a bunch of Rider and Khan ships killed near the end. I think they could have handled that one better.
i have a star trek styled cruiser that has star trek technology, and i think it would be a cool idea if it was put against this server's fleets, similar to the eternity, only it's a lot more powerful.
I would think if Riders had been a bit conservative on her deployments and not tried to brawl with her, she may still be in service. Like Brock said commanding a battleship is tricky, and in most ways difficult. I would have used the Ravager. a bit different, instead of just charging into enemy formations head on like a cavalry charge, I would have used her as a long range asset, keeping enemy formations just inside my weapons range and supporting my own formations. Big ships with big guns don’t do so well with up close and personal unless it’s a 1v1 situation. I would very muck like to see another Ravager or Titan class built and used right. Maybe give her a 1000mm lance artillery cannon as one of her forward batteries, then maybe charging in guns blazing would be a little better. Btw not only is using and commanding a BB wether it’s a light or heavy difficult but designing one is a frikkin nightmare and headache.😂
So far only Borodino broke the mold of artillery only, but that kinda stopped working when Warfare 2 happened. Ravs usage was def odd throughout its service
Ravager never got her critical refit that would have turned her into a frontline combat ship. Late in S1 there was a doctrine formed around using her as an aggressive squadron anchor and the tests produced spectacular results. However, then I left the Riders and took the design with me, so the Riders sort of fell back on the old "tank it" mentality. Sadly, Rav was never meant for that sort of fight and without a clear doctrine she was largely wasted and misused.
@@CaptainRhodor To me the Rav looked and operated good. It’s the whole charge in ahead of everyone that seemed to be the main issue. I’m kinda curious tho what your design or blueprint for her refit looked like. But alas I guess that’s a mystery for another tale.
@@michaelschauf3542 The doctrine built around Rav was to have her lead the charge while closely accompanied by all three of her escorts directly into the heart of the enemy formation to break them up. Then, once they scattered, one of her escorts (preferably a DDG for close-range protection) would stay close while her other two (preferably a cruiser and DD) would break off and begin flanking and pinning the most isolated ship of the hostile formation for the Rav to pounce on. Rinse and repeat until either the formation takes too much damage to keep fighting or the enemy runs out of ships/retreats. It was devastatingly effective when employed in late S1, but the concept was never again used thanks to the advent of "Spin to Win" making formation fighting nearly impossible.
Are there any carrier type vessels in the series? Although given what I’ve seen in the battles and the Eternity’s own fighters, even the shielded ones they seem to be either bad or just useless. Also if carriers have yet to be introduced that would require learning a whole new ship meta which as this video demonstrates with the current war that would not be ideal.
Yes, but they're not as prevalent atm as most factions had focus on large vessels as the skill barrier had only recently been over come for sucessful fighter deployment At the moment there are many fighter deployments and hybrid carriers, but only one dedicated carrier
Or perhaps... PERHAPS... The Ravager was saddled by an alliance whose craven nature kept them from following it in its glorious charges. Perhaps the caution and cowardice of its fellow captains allowed it to become isolated, who in their smug pride can claim "well at least it wasn't MY fault". The Ravager represents the courage and fury of the true warlords of the galaxy. Leaders of charisma and daring, unafraid of taking risks in pursuit of greatness, and in whose shadows we now live. These endless wars, these territorial and bureaucratic squabbles in space, are the byproduct of administrators and schemers - not leaders. The Ravager and its crew may be dead, blazing in radiant immortality through the legends it has left, but we of Earth long to see its like once more.
@@datwitchyswordfan I'd forgotten entirely about this channel and series until you sent this comment - thank you for the reminder! I need to watch more, I remember it being wonderful fun. :D
@@SuperCosmicSpaceMagnet Cool cool dude. Imma gonna get Space Engineers myself, since it looks rad as hell and its has a bajillion tutorials to help you get on your feet
The Ravager never found her place as a fire support mobile artillery as BB Eternety's Advent was used on many occasions sure she also killed ships by ramming them but that's a last resort manoeuvre, the king of manoeuvres Captain Brock can only make it either from the reactor room or from a toilet. The Ravager would live a long more successful life as a battleship if distance would be her weapon rather than close distance ship on ship direct fire engagements. In a way, she reminds me of the first battleships after the dreadnaught era the heavy cruiser class large calibre gun vessels deployed by the British during WW2
Look on the bright side: the o t h e r Battleship that gave you so much hell in Season 1 is still alive and kicking, and you are in the perfect position to bring her down! XD
My question is why no one is building assult and garde ships in the vain of crest of the stars . It seems to me to be a winning strategy with the way this servers meta is . Unless a lack of crews is the problem. The ravager her self could have benefited a good deal from guard ships [ small corvet sized vessals heavy on point defence weaponry.
You can only have 4 ships in a squadron unless you have only frigates and the jeune Ecole Doctrine in which you can have 4 frigates plus one other ship
@@admiralmallard7500 point defence also keeps small fast vessels from doing what ever they want in relation to a larger ship but yes I have seen some on the auto targeting problem in space enginers. It seems to be one of the things a good chunk of peaple seem to mention wanting fixed or changed in some way . The tldr from what overseen is the turrets tend to shoot straight at missles with no regard for lead time or shot pattern.
@@petman515 The problem is that SE targeting overcorrects for velocity due to a bug in the code that Keen refuses to fix for some reason, and it won't engage unless it thinks it has a good firing solution. However, that means that if you have something moving at incredibly high speed (like, for instance, one of our Outlands 400mm shells that travel at 1000 m/s) it's a 50/50 chance that the gun will even detect it in the first place, much less effectively engage it.
@@admiralmallard7500 oh no someone has passive aggressive issues. Just because your faction didn't get a showcase don't mean you won't get on in the future. Try acting better.
This looks so cool, the way you narrate is cool also...Just wish that the game was a bit cheaper, all the DLCs add up to too much and I assume I need them all for an optimal experience '^^

I've been watching the series and watching some of these vids, I never thought of role playing in Space Engineers. This has been an awesome series.
As sad as my former Rider heart is to see the Rav die…. I’m happy I made the ship that killed her XD
The Ravager was a hell of a ship.
I havent played SE in years, might have to play it again seeing this
Ive seen the stream with the Avager’s demise, it was was a sad day for all but I think deep down we all knew her time was coming to an end.
I would love a small story about Apollyon's Fury.
I agree but that would mean she would have to get her ass handed to her
That all sound epic. I wish, I could join, build own ship, fights in space battles, but this probably will never happend.
this makes me sad... i just realized a ship gets its glory video after it gets killed... we shall never see the snek story :/
join twitch today, it'll be a WIP
The mining and refining rates on the server must be INSANE to allow production of so many huge ships like these.
we build ships using a turn based system, we dont do alot of in game survival
