I was ill with the lovely flu like disease all the cool kids are talking about, so I decided to create some new FtD designs for a campaign I am starting hopefully very soon! Enjoy this rather all over the place set of designs! Since recording this I've been hiding in a dark room drinking lots of water and taking lots of painkillers.
Next video out when I can start opening my eyes again properly.
yay miss this game cuse i dont wanna play itcuse i build boxes
sorry to hear you are ill hope you get well soon
I was wondering will you ever do another land campaign
Planes gotta be called skipper!
wish untis could go under ground n u could make a sand worm for land campain n not tell us
Lathrix you should make it encircle so that it doesn't get hit by a weapon and dodges attacks
From The Depths is a series we wish to see continued on this channel.
agred, inded statment tru
Yes, just yes
I second this
Ngl, read this in Lath's voice.
My lord lathrix i agree with this comment
Those aren't seagulls, Lathrix. They're vultures.
Derpy vultures of death
I mean, he looks a lot like a bot, From the depths protagonist is an adeptus mechanicus confirmed?
They’re actually both. They’re called dreadgulls
deadly seagulls
I mean...
Seagulls are essentially shore vultures.
Because the hovercraft is named "The Crossbow" the Plane could be "The Bolt" and the Helis could be "Arrowheads"
a capital ship or carrier could be named 'The Huntsman' to go with the theme
i will second this idea and of the one bellow
@@kiraw.9521 He could make a supply ship/carrier and name it the feather. He could have it very weak but have it supply other ships.
Maybe Bodkins for the Helis since they’re so small
i like all of these ideas!
Lathrix, the Stable branch is about to get updated
You started moments before a significant update
Dedi-blades are getting replaced
Lmao
I am going to interact with this comment because it increases the chance that he will see it because this sounds very important
Yeah This and Stability will mean that Dediblade spam is not really viable anymore as a way to make super cheap and good at everything craft which is great.
@@wilkins67890 so will the update just rebalance dediblades or will it remove them and replace them with something more balanced?
@@corinthianimperialstudios704 Remove and replace them entirely with a new Propeller block that works a lot differently.
@@wilkins67890 ...thus completely breaking any dediblade builds. I see.
Ahh the nostalgia of hearing you say welcome back to from the depths with me lathrics. I remember watching you years ago when I was in school thinking how amazing you were at building ships like I never could. I’m 21 now and still enjoy that intro just as much as I did when I was 18-17. Welcome Sirs and siretts was the best intro I had ever heard.
Lathland: I made these three awesome things!
Borderwise: Why does everything I make look like a canoe?!
Elaborate please?
@@chee.rah.monurB this guy I'd say is though hillarious better at decorating his craft than making them highly efficient and deadly, unless he's been building a flagship after a few beers. Compared to borderwise, who makes some terrifying and just really good crafts that look... Kinda plain.
From the Depths is a series I would like to see continued in the future.
Yeah. You realize your entire personality is just a mood and that makes us happy. Thank you for the videos and keep up the good work.
Holy Shit man!!!
Lathrix is playing FtD again!!!!!!!!!!
And he's gonna play the WHOLE campaign?!!!!! It must be my birthday and I'm dreaming!!
My body is ready, inject me with a new FtD series NOW!!!!!
I mean, it is my birthday. And I'm absolutely not going to complain.
Following the old weapon name theme, the helicopter could be called the "hwacha," which was a fifteenth century rocket launcher from Korea. It fits the helicopter's function; strong burst damage at the beginning using missile volleys, and it's also just fun to say.
Regardless, I look forward to what this campaign will bring.
It seems like the weapons designs this time around are air-based. This faction seems to have their "warships" being hovercraft. This sounds fun, and it would allow them to invade islands with relative ease and protect them too.
With the planes, maybe you could configure their engine and AI to go faster on the retreat, and slower on the attack?
And perhaps the helicopters could also be made to strafe around the enemy, or go back and forth to help them dodge enemy fire.
Yeah, the campaign is currently playable, though be warned if you want the AI to spawn anything scary you are going to have to give them a lot of time.
From The Depth is a series I wish to see continued in the future! Also, I’d love to see an overview of the systems on your craft in more detail, especially when we get to big complex vehicles.
I have waited an eternity for FTD to come back. Always been my favourite of your series.
SAME
Same

You really should make an aircraft carrier that works as your “mobile base” in either the campaign or an adventure mode. With tiny little aircraft and little helicopters.
After watching a certain amphibians FtD streams, its nice to watch a competent builder make things that actually work.
P.S. I think the interceptor should be named something like "Striker" or "Dagger". While the little heli should be called "Horsefly" because of how small yet powerfull it is.
Edit: Spelling
I was itching for more from the depths from the glorious lathrix
Name suggestion for the heli trio, stingers, they have a big initial punch and then have sustained dmg, kinda like a bee sting with the initial sting and then the venom
A later upgraded Crossbow with extended body, and ‘wings’ or ‘bow’ bits so they’re not so stumpy would look nice. You could that back area with laser bits for a munition defense system that you can they put on the tips of those bow parts, beef up that cram a bit, and keep the strafe and you’d have a nice fleet support vehicle.
Maybe call it something like the ExcaliBow or something more clever.
You should also check out making a Mass Driver for late game shenanigans. They’re crazy.
Lathrix every time he starts a new campaign: so... last time was a bust, but this time Ill definitely finish the campaign
I'd love to see you experiment some more with AI in these designs. For instance, the little strike craft could use a spiral diving/retreating pattern instead of a straight one, which would make it much harder to hit. Lots of simple things like that could let you shed some of that bulky armor for extra speed or damage, as well as a lower profile. Also you missed a huge opportunity when you made a crossbow shaped ship and didn't give it a massive spinal cannon in the middle.
you should check out the new propellers that are in beta (they are the replacement for dedi blades) btw the crossbow is so cool
Loving the more condensed editing of this one, makes it very easy to watch. Editing FTD videos seems like a nightmare so having just the good bits (beginning/end of build and fights) hopefully makes life easier. Looking forward to the next one!
The Crossbow also reminds me of the Star Wars AAT which is pretty coo.
Helicopter name suggestion:
Name: Khornenucopia/ Ravenwatchers/ Ravenguard/Crowfreat (allows for stuff like a “murder of Crowfreat” and “I really need some Crowfreat right now.”
Semi lore stuff (idk what im doing):
The (helicopter name) was originally a prototype of the steel striders. With advances in doctrine and a increase of pirate activity in their territory, the steel striders decided to commission a new helicopter. It was made to provide a low cost and upkeep solution to patrol for pirates and skirmishes from other factions, capable of decimating other light craft, especially in groups. However expectations of the craft grew, and more and more stuff got piled on until the goals became impossible to fulfill. The first demonstration to the military ended in disaster as the helicopter struggled to lift off the ground before a malfunction that was “fixed” caused the already strained engine to explode, causing the helicopter to plummet into the ground, killing the pilot; with the terrible first show and costs rising way over budget, the government ended the program and all remaining test vehicles were sent for scraping. However a few managed to be sold to the black market through bribes before they were scraped, but most went to the other factions hungry for steel strider tech; a single helicopter though found its way to deep water guard territory where it was left to rot. Years later a certain ambitious pirate with dreams of world conquest and “being the good guys” heard rumors of an advanced prototype helicopter and went searching for it, after months of searching he found it in a junkyard of a abandoned shipyard and retrofitted to working order. Much to the pirates disappointment just about all advanced components were just memories at this point and he had no blueprints, so the he just had to guess what was supposed to go where; the pirate put a massive rusting rotary cannon from a old patrol boat, fed with scrap iron shells and hopes and dreams of it functioning in the compartment for the auto cannons, instead of a rack of advanced laser targeted atgms, it had 2 makeshift missiles controlled a old computers found in scrapyards filled with as much explosive as it could possibly fit without it just dropping out of the sky, where an engine is supposed to go the engine of a speedboat was bolted and strapped in, with a rocket placed at the back because he couldn’t figure out tilting, and new propellers were sourced from old turbine blades ground into shape. Anything modern or small and/or non-essential wasn’t added; like flares, armor, and a ejection seat. Despite all this hacking together, when it was finished, and tested in the trial of battle, it preformed well; in fact so well it managed to beat the performance of the original design and do the original intended goal. Under its new master it is now and fast and deadly menace; capable of blowing apart the enemy with its missiles, can put down sustained fire with its rotary cannon, and it is extremely cheap to build and run so can be run in large swarms; sure it might be somewhat lacking in firepower by itself and doesn’t even know the concept of armor, but lets see the enemy try to defend 12 of these things, and if you get shot down? Well your replacement is probably already flying to your position.
Ya know, the more I think about it, the more it seems like this thing is basically the imperial guardsmen.
Humming spike for the plane and the flying doom sisters for the helicopter are the best I could come up with for names :) I hope you feel better soon Lath.
I have found that one of the most cost effective vehicles early game is a torpedo bomber, I use long medium missiles on the cheapest plane hull I can make, I can get them to cost ~6000 resource and 5 of them are enough to take on the crossbones. I usually have them fire the torpedo's fairly far away, ~1000 meters so AA is unable to do much, they also fly high until they drop the torpedo's, so they act kinda like dive bombers. You don't even need good detection on them because the torpedo's lock on. I know you like missiles so I thought you might enjoy making something like a torpedo bomber!
Oh I almost forgot to say I hope you feel better soon!
The helicopters could be called Hyenas, since they pick at the weaker prey and provide finishing blows when they scavenge. The interceptor could keep the animal theme by being the Hound class, since it hounds its enemy and persistently hunts them.
I got back Into from the depths a few weeks ago. Glad to see you back too.
So happy to see the return of from the depths. Your last full play through is my favourite series on the channel.
Since you named the blue craft the crossbow, you should keep with a medieval naming scheme. The helicopter can be called the sling since its a weak vehicle, theyre a bunch of them, and theyre mostly burst damage with those missiles. The plane should be called the pike since it keeps enemies at a distance
My favorite design of these is that little jet. Something about it just tickles my brain, and I adore it!
The helicopters are ready cool. A craft with a powerful opening salvo that retreats to a more supportive role after the first bit of combat. I think that the healing forward dude should be called a banner and the two on the side could be called flanks maybe. I’d love to see a crossbow flanked by two of the banners for an even more elite tank+healer type formation.
It's technically impossible to make a healer AI, unless you set their circle around enemy at the same distance, and maybe get lucky they go the same way at the same time.
Pisses me off, cuz I have tried to make healer crafts so many times. I wanted a healer helicopter to rescue my downed planes, as to not waste them, but alas, it's not possible, yet.
Note: Even with LUA it's not possible, cuz you can't set a target position, which would literally take the devs 5 minutes or less to add to the LUA functions list. Such a waste.
Hovercraft: the ray
Plane: the spike
Helicopter: missiles!! Yay
Alternatively, if we're going to be in keeping with the medieval equipment theme; the copters could be named Helm/helmet/helmut(this one is just for a silly spelling) , and the interceptors Partisan/Ranseur.(as for the names, like the cross bow its for how they look, not what they do. feel free to look them up)
YES MORE FTD!! I am so super glad you want to finish the campaign!
There I was making my own FTD videos when I felt a disturbance in the force... Literally checked your channel out of the blue to find you are coming back to FTD! You got me into FTD and I probably wouldn't have started a channel without that so I can't wait to see more!
Looking back at the old From The Depths series and beeing into 40k myself now, I can realy enjoy the warhammer references
Name the copters your little “Khorne Dogs” after those mini corndogs you can get and the fitting blood god pun.
OR how about a doge meme that has been made chaos-y. That would be pretty funny LOL
Helicopter name suggestion, going with a good guy theme
One with a flag: Bearer
Other two: Followers
Crossbow Hovercraft (Looks like a crossbow), Katar Helicopter (large central cannon, two small side guns), Shiv Close-Air-Support Fighter (dives into knife fighting range then retreats, program to attack enemies from the rear for a 'backstab' aesthetic).
Wooooh new campaign!!! Oh, also- I'd quite like the name Skipping Stone for the aircraft, with how close it gets to the water before going up
Could call the planes Belly Dancers, feels pretty Slaanesh with the colour scheme and matches the way it bounces low over the water!
From the depths is definitely something I wanna see in the future. Just had a full work weel for the first time like, ever, so I missed this when it came out but yes I am so happy to see these come back!
The crossbow reminds me of a manta ray, looks neat.
Thought the same thing, especcially with the color theme.
you know it’s a good day when lathland uploads a ftd video, especially when he says he’s gonna do another campaign
Love your content! Great video, as usual
sweet! nice to get some FtD again! i would say "Flea" for the copters and "Cricket" for the plane.
I see that Lathrix is making a Chaos Tau vessel for the hovercraft lol.
Good to see your back uploading ftd. Can't wait to watch this and the campaign. A name suggestion for the plane is the Vulture, since they will eventually be deployed in groups. One design I would like to see is similar to the old plague guard but even more tanky and larger, with larger guns. Maybe even a LAMS for the ship.
I suddenly want to make a jetfighter! Was more than a year since last time I think, this game is expansive, I spent the last year doing missiles, crams, APS and armour...
So glad to see you're doing campaign again! Watched your previous ones on repeat so many times so it's great to see a new one.
OMG I just realized that the game is like 10 years old. Still awesome. May the Flying Squirrel smile upon you.
Welcome back to fwam the depfhs!
The crossbow really gave me an idea for a new craft, though I already had an one like it is was working on. it's just a bit ambitious and I'm scared to make it well.
A Giant crab water skimmer that encircles enemies a high speeds and shoots nearly point blank cramz
So glad to see some more From the Depths! Can't wait to see what your campaign looks like this time.
I'm really excited to see you getting into this game again! I hope to see cool ships, and see you getting wrecked by designs you've never seen before!
You could call the helicopter: the Hatchet and the jet: the Arrow. So glad to see you playing ftd again, I hope you get better real soon!
Yay! More from the depths! This was the game that got me into your channel years ago so i find it nostalgic whenever you upload a new FTD episode, thank you Lath ^^
I always love your FtD content! Your ability to make good looking and functional ships continues to impress!
if you want to give meta a go, big 4-8 meter 500 mm. pen depth aps is the way to go and is great fun to watch. Its Armor peiceing head, solid, he, he,he, and then an optional supercav. Of course you tend to just create your own stuff that for some reason performs really well and looks amazing, so you do you.
Your very first season introduced me to From the Depths. Happy to see the game return to the channel more recently
Those little helis remind me of a previous design, the Khorn flakes, and given you put a khorn logo on one, maybe name it something like the khorn gull? And then make the rest after other gods, maybe that your character is some sort of prophet, and each design is a gift of each god’s power
Nice to see you starting ftd again. 👍 thanks for all the content .
Woo!
It feels like forever since the last FtD campaign! Welcome back, Lath, and I hope you feel better soon
I'm glad you're back to from the depths
Its my favourite game to watch you play
It's so fun seeing you have fun exploding stuff
I started watching you when you made your very first FTD vid. You got me in to FTD (kind of miss the original simplicity of FTD - simple weapons - missiles - custom cannons) So glad you started making FTD vids again, ive never stopped playing. PS I despise stellaris but had your vids play in the background anyway just to give you more views lol
Yes thank you Latheix been having that itch to watch you build again. Thank you for scratching it.
I like the name "Helios", you can give it to any of them. I also like the name "Torment", it fits your style of doing things.
Side to side stepping of the Crossbow looks really nice and constant changing of movement makes it more dodgy so i would stay with that
The fighter reminds me of a mosquito. Maybe the "Mosca," taking out the diminutive '-ito.'
So glad to see you back into FTD.
OMG I am sorry to hear you have the Rona! Get better soon. 💕
Very exited for the next FtD campaign, and I wish you good health.
The jet could be the thunderstrike because it does a striking dive maneuver and does some burst damage
Love the FTD content! Keep up the great work and get well soon
Some FTD from Latrix, yeay ! it's been so long since you last did a campaign, I can't wait to watch !
As for names... What about something like "The Crystal" for the plane? Swarm of "Crystals". They kind of looks like crystals anyways, and they have... quite sharp edges, that they can use to chip bit by bit the enemies off the battlefield = )
Challenge: use only air craft for the campaign
@Cyclops Cool yes, but aircraft
Hey Lathrix! You've got 3 vehicles set up and each one has a color scheme going for the Chaos Gods. Make a submarine and color it green then you could call the whole group, "The Ruinous Powers."
the choppers are a 'Trident' of Pilum.
the interceptor may be call it the Rabbit; hops away before it gets hit, two fisted punch to the guts from the guns and most likely wont survive a direct hit.
try an Catamaran carrier type that launches a swarm of zodiac (fast attack two ammo crates) to act like skirmishers to distract weapons fire instead of aircraft. that has aegis missile like system for attack and defence.
Lathrix we would all love to see you make it through the whole campaign and glad to see you back to building some weapons of war your strong suit thanks for coming back every time even when you are sick of the game we all really love it and you are my favorite and just about best from the depths youtuber from all the ones I have found. Thanks again. Also you style of building has improved immensely especially with the helis. And your ballista looking craft as you named accordingly crossbow is awesome lovingly what you are doing. it really looks amazing.
Well... This is the best answer to my question under the previous "Stellaris" video about "will we see From the Depths again, and if yes, when?"... I like it! = )
A interesting idea I have is to make a slighter bigger plane to lead a wing of the planes, sort of the Pack leader that could have like one medium missile in the center to kinda differentiate it, and also could be something that can replace the cheap ones when you get to the mid-late game? Food for thought
As a long time watcher (and now a fresh player) I am very happy to see the start of a new series
The crossbow looks really sick and I love the straife dance. Can definitively feel some Stellaris vibes in its design ;)
The smaller craft look great too. Having some cheap & fragile craft in your FTD battles makes them more dramatic, and increases the chance of explosions. *I care not from whence the explosions come, only that they do.*
The naming scheme of different weapons is quite interesting and has quite a bit of room for upgrading and upscaling. Like keeping with the crossbow's general design, a larger better version could be named 'the ballista' or a mortar version could be a 'catapult/trebuchet'.
As for the other two, maybe 'dart/blowdart' for the plane and possibly 'shuriken' for the helicopter.
Unfortunately, that's the best I'm able to come up with without using a generator for the names.
Love these videos, I'm looking forwards to it immensely!
IT HAS BEEN LOG ENOUGH!!!
also with the advanced cannon plane what about making it strafe the enemy with a ventral gun that can move 180 degrees under the plane.
yay! more Lathirx, more better. I wish you (had) a quick recovery.
Can't wait for the next episode! I have been itching to watch some from the depths lately
Thx for more ftd content! I've been waiting for a while!
Khorne-copter vs. Slaneesh-fighter
I am for the whole Chaos undivided theme. With equally dedicated crafts to the chaos gods.
Nurlge: Very tanky, beating stick that will survive nearly everything
Khorne: Just pure violence and death
Slaneesh: Nimble, agile and kinky
Tzeench: smart everything, missles, canons etc, destruction from a save distance
Am I the only who kinda sees an apparition when I look at the crossbow?🤷🏻♂️😂 Good job on these Lathrix they look awsome btw!
Ooh, could eventually make a larger and more powerful and long range crossbow and call it the ballista. It comes with pre-existing improved-form names!
so excited for a new campaign! would really love to see this go to the end!
I have been really missing your from the depths series, glad to see it make a return on the channel, instant like from me :D
Boy is been a while lathrix, glad your back! Random idea for a more later game, a craft similar to the crossbow but with rapid fire particle cannons. I think this play through you should use weapons you don't use to often, or different like slower firing Advanced cannons on the plane.
Name suggestion for the heli: Flag bearer or Chaos Standard, as in standard-bearer.
I gotta admit Lath, you were the reason I got into the game. It's also a great time killer and fun game to watch explosions..
The question is.. when will the Necrons get attention? These Gauss Destructors are VERY hungry..
I've been waiting for another one of these! get well soon!
More FtD content, yay!
Also, the crossbow looks like a howitzer.
