Introduction
Designed for self-contained expeditionary combat, the Almayer carries its own aircraft, landing craft, equipment, and marines in a single package. The Almayer features a number of options for ferrying marines to shore or another location, including shore assault via a landing craft or helicopter insertion further inland. Carrying a lethal armament designed primarily for protection from aircraft, the ship is able to protect itself instead of relying on escorts. In addition to helicopter facilities, the ship features a large hanger and a full-length runway for use with fixed-wing aircraft too. Packed with a number of vehicles for ground use, marines will never be without support.
Because of this ship's size, it requires either a modded workbench or mission spawn. It will decrease performance on most computers. See the video below to expand your own workbench.

Note: Some of the hatches and other minor systems are a bit janky! For janky vertical hatches, it is best to try to crouch while going up ladders and through hatches.
