Spelljammer’s Hammerhead

Slab

The mighty Hammership is here!  This beast can host a very large crew and a massive rack of cargo, sporting three elevated rotating weapon mounts, a blunt ram, and even a lovely parasol for sunbathers on the bow!

As with my other Spelljammer ships, the Hammerhead Ship was built to official 5th edition D&D specs, with almost no liberties taken anywhere.  One significant change that will likely never upset any Spelljammer fans is the absorption of some of the useless hallways in the cargo deck into the Storage and Stateroom (rooms #16 & #17).  The eyes, according to the book, look out, and not really forward—I may redesign them at some point, but they are within the official 3×3 space for now.  Should TaleSpire ever add some better swooping metal pieces, I’ll gladly overhaul the “hammer” of the Hammerhead ship so that it has that more sleek, pronounced angles on the saloon and mess hall.

Enjoy!  Next up will likely be the Bombard or Turtle ship.  If you haven’t seen my other Spelljammer ships, take a look at my profile—I’m working through all the current-edition ships while I’m also overhauling the Spelljammer book for free.  A second section includes gobs of DM worldbuilding tools and optional rules, and I’ll continue to update that (and the TaleSpire ships) until there is no point in continuing to do so.

Also credit to Gengus for the idea to use scrolls for “windsock” flags.
