Description
Does anyone even need a boxy spaceship in Miku Miku Dancing? Whatever. I already made it, so I might aswell upload it.If the file is damaged or something like that, contact me. Then I can see to get it fixed.
A small Preview:
youtu.be/HifjdN_O9_I
Have fun with it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes:
The ship was originally created and exported with the voxel based game starmade.
As a result it has a ridiculous amount of vertexes and I was too lazy to optimize it.
So prepare for possible FPS drops.
It has been outfitted with morphs for some simple glowing effects (designed for use with autoluminous)
aswell as rotation bones to mount other effects unto the ship.
The Model may be used full or in parts and edited at will.
Change log:
v1.1: corrected an rigging mistake wich had morth elements assigned to a joint.

Lore (In case anyone even cares):
After a long and bloody civil war the Amphibos Colonial Empire first had to rebuild order. With large chunks of the fleet still fragmented, damaged and utterly outdated, the Empire needed a ship that could go on police and patrol duty just as well in space as on planet surfaces and wich could also be produced in large numbers.
The solution the builder caste came up with was the Leosteus. A relatviely small ship that could operate in deep space without fleet support for weeks.
The newly gained acces to resources alowed for the ship to be equipped with highly modern crew facilities wich made it more comfortable for members of the amphibos species, though the ship still retains some of the industrial feeling the empire adopted throughout it's wars.
Even though the leosteus had been mostly state of the art at the time, the craft wasn't without it's problems.
The ship had to be designed very hastely and thus couldn't be proberly simulated and tested. In the end the crews had to fight with an easily overloaded powergrid and difficult controls duo to the antigravitation units poorly adjusted for basic navigation.
In addition the builder caste forgot to include detention cells in the design, so captives had to be locked up in the cargo bay or the air locks.
Since the ship got very limited space for crew comfort it only had been outfitted with facilities suitable for the Amphibos Species. This led to complaints by representatives of other species who felt left out of the military rebuild, but they could quickly appeased by promising appropriate considerations for bigger futur designs.
Amphibos have difficulties in creating large energy fields with their power systems. As a result they wouldn't have developed energy shields by the time the Leosteus entered service (Though they could manage small fields).
Therefore Amphibos ships are typically build with sturdy hulls that are protected by large chunks of armor plating, resulting in pretty slow ships.
They do however excel in stealth technology and tactics, wich makes it very difficult to detect Amphibos ships before they come into weapon range.
