Honestly I just build what looks good, and this configuration seemed to be the
most pleasing to the eye. Considering that its all fanboy speculation how a
hoverpod works, Im not too worried about it.

That aside, it seems to stay very faithful to the design parameters suggested
by the Nebbie, with the slightly tadpole-ish look, all of the little spars
sticking out everywhere (does anyone actually know what theyre supposed to
do?), and the look of thick plated armor. I find the gatling gun design to
be very interesting, as if it was intended to be used solely for defensive
retreats (they dont look like they can swing around to point forward).

I think theyre for broadcasting into the matrix personally. The guns dont
swing forward, but when the ship has the arm swung forward they are. Aside from
that I might rebuild their mounts to be more aimable.

And to the questions...
The ski-claw on the front looks pretty cool, but whats it for?

Its a big electro gun. If the EMP mines in the back dont take the power from
the sentinals, then well give em as much as they can take.
4 or 5, Ill have it settled when I finish the interior.

I checked on your website and I couldnt find any other pics. I assume well

That little gathering will afford you with bunches of pics.
Thanks for the input!
