I got a sort of scenario idea just by looking through the SB website

"Its 2000 and your country is at war with [insert country name], you plan to invade said country by sea. Your country has one of the best armoured force in the world, but, there is a problem. You cant get your armoured force too the enemy land. This calls for a Tank Landing Ship (LST)."

You must design a LST that can deploy tanks and other amphibious vehicles. It also should include some self defence weaponry, as you are attacking enemy land and we know they wont give up without a fight.


Honestly I feel this would bring in alot of interesting drawings. As there isn't really how a LST should be built, just "it must be able to land tanks".

Why not a CGL challenge? something along the lines of the Kirov or the Long beach. Focusing on the missile battery with a traditional powerplant or a nuclear plant powering the ship. the era would be from 1960-2010

I reckon something like a seaplane or a floatplane would be a pretty interesting idea especially if it is a military version of one.

Seahawk challenge - Design a ridiculous large speed boat (over 4,000 tons; in excess of 35 knots) for the 1960s-1970s.

Bonus points if you can come up with a plausible justification for its existence.

space-bucket April fools challenge

you must draw a space warship from hundreds of years in the future for your AU or nation of choice, must be capable of FTL travel and combat in vacuum conditions and not immediately vent the entire crew out into space after getting hit by enemy shells.

(ideally this challenge would complete on April fools or begin on April fools)

Submarine anarchy mayhem challenge: Design any submarine for any purpose from 1905-1995. It doesn't even have to be military, post submersible megayachts and speculative deep sea explorers to your hearts content. Only requirement is that it must be able to fully submerge underwater and not kill the entire crew doing so, and be able to surface after the fact.
