This is a spaceship I started on a long time ago and was intended to be a DM, but when the brickcount got too high I abandoned that idea and just continued on it because I have almost never completely finished a build.
Then I thought of using this as an application for {ASI}, which it is right now.
About:The U.S.S. Tantalus is a multi-purpose support ship, mainly used as a carrier for ground troops and small space-fighters. It has 4 turrets for self-defense.
The Tantalus is made of 14447 bricks.

The Bridge
The Events:Each turret has an indentical control panel with lots of buttons panels and meters, but there are only some things that are useful/do things
The panel above the cone brackets (< and >) activates the camera on the turret the panel is connected with.
The green square button activates the turret, firing twin rockets (mech heavy rockets) in a straight line.
The long, blue meter indicates the recharge level, once you fire the turret, it empties and you have to wait for it to re-fill before you can fire again.
2 of the turrets are located on the sides of the ship - near the front - and fire forwards. The other 2 turrets are located on each side above the escape pods and fire to the sides. The panels to control these are located in the bridge.
The commander's chair in the bridge can move back and forward when you press the button on the chair
Forward...
...and back again
Located on the railing in front of the chair is another camera panel which shows a view from the rear of the ship, just above the engines.
Constructive criticism please, and you may rate x/10
