What are the gun limits for all Vessel types on HWS Server?

HWS General Discussion

Hi Everyone,

I am interested in building my own vessel in creative.
However I need to know if I will be able to spawn it into HWS.

What at the gun limits for all vessel types?

Hover, Small Vessel, Capital Vessel, Base.

Are they all default vanilla or have they been increased?

I am interested in CV gun limits first…if anyone can help that would be cool.

The only thing which is changed as far as I can think of is CV having 12 manual fire laser & 8 manual fire homing rockets and then bases can have 4 artillery

  1. Weapon limits

(Numbers shown are the MAX allowed of each type of weapon, drill, tool, etc.)

3.1 If your blueprint is Orange or Red and not allowed on the server, it means the blueprint exceeds the server weapon(s) limit or has an outdated / illegale item built in.

3.2 HWS Small Vessels (SV) weapon limits

  • 6 Gatling Guns
  • 4 Rocket Launchers
  • 4 Plasma Guns
  • 4 Pulse Guns
  • 4 Rail Guns
  • 4 Rocket Launchers Homing

3.3 HWS Hover Vessels (HV) weapon limits

  • 6 T1 Drill Module
  • 6 T2 Drill Module
  • 6 Gatling Guns
  • Choose 6 Minigun Turrets
  • Choose 4 Rocket Turrets
  • Choose 4 Plasma Turrets
  • Choose 1 Artillery Turret
  • Choose 4 Tool Turrets

3.4 HWS Capital Vessels (CV) weapon limits

  • 12 Pulse Laser
  • 8 Rocket Launcher
  • Choose 12 Projectile Turrets (Minigun or Cannon Turrets)
  • Choose 10 Laser Turrets (Pulse Laser or Plasma Turrets)
  • Choose 10 Fast Explosive Turrets (Rocket or Flak Turrets)
  • Choose 2 Slow Explosive Turrets (Artillery Turrets)
  • Choose 8 Tool Turrets (Drill or Multi Turrets)
  • 8 Sentry Guns

3.5 HWS Bases (BA) weapon limits

  • Choose 12 Projectile Turrets (Minigun or Cannon Turrets)
  • Choose 10 Laser Turrets (Pulse Laser or Plasma Turrets)
  • Choose 10 Fast Explosive Turrets (Rocket or Flak Turrets)
  • Choose 4 Slow Explosive Turrets (Artillery Turrets)
  • 8 Sentry Guns

Choose means a decision between the normal Turret or the retractable Turret .
For BAses and CVs it also means certain type decisions .
For example either 5 Pulse Laser Turrets + 5 Plasma Turrets or only 10 Plasma Turrets => you can pick the amount of Turrets out of a group limit basically.
Choose wisely with our Effective Weapon System in mind!

Retractable Turrets have on HWS 20% more internal armor if retracted and +20% more Hitpoints .

Keep in mind that HWS Garage ships can exceed these limits !
