Looks like they added some dorsal stabilizers and dropped the fuggly daggerboard. The are repeaters putting out >2k DPS with a projectile speed of 1650, which is a little less than the Galdereen, in damage, speed and range, but the spread is less, the power consumption and temperature to IR are...

The Clipper has cargo plates. And indeed, you can fit a Dragonfly, or two Hoverquads in the cargo bay. The grid is 3x2x2, so holds 12 SCU with a walkway next to the grid. I think the pods are scheduled to be 2x2x2, which as shown in the vid below, would be fine on the grid but is too large for...

I agree, medium class components are good. Combination small and medium is even better, like the pairing of one small and one medium reactor in the Sentinel, allowing serious flexibility. On serving aboard the big ships, keep alts in mind. I definitely will have separate accounts for playing...

By special decree, all pie eaten this week is shame and guilt free, but you have to be careful with the topping. Happily, mankind has adapted to the special needs created by pie week, and responded appropriately with sugar free whipped topping. Just so you know.

Thanks for the pic, Chip. When you go to fit a Nox in, see if you can back it in such that it only covers a single grav plate. My hope is you can still get by it and it will then displace the minimum amount of cargo. I would suggest leaving on the boarding ramp to see what happens but it might...

So the energy gun version is out. As previously mentioned the L-21 had its impressive gun range nerfed. The L-22 likewise has a 3km range. Apparently either no one at CIG had originally noted the 5k ranged allowed the original release to attack ships with relative relative impunity, or they were...

Yes, well the Red is really not a solo ship. Chip, post the camo! This ship was born for cave running, where you park off to the side in the trees so no one knows you’re there. It’s taller than the shrubs so would be pretty easy to spot unless it’s in camo. So far as I’m aware, parking out...

Agreed. This is going to be hugely polpular. Erkul says 4S3 guns, 6 missile launchers, 2S1 shields, a smidge slower and less maneuverable than a Sentinel and with a sneak rating of 3.4. Given a bed, head, med bed and WORKBENCH!!!, I say it wins. ( I have never owned nor lived in a house without...

Well, I looked at it on erkul, and with the twin salvage heads running it has a signature of only 2.9. That’s really low. I have to say as a sneak, I like it. And it has a lovable profile. Unique, classy, stylish, not terrible speed. Twin but very narrow beams. Only holds 6 SCU but if you were...

Technically, the Idris rail gun cannot one-shot the Perseus. The rail gun does 288k damage and the Perseus has 389k hp. However, the rail gun destroys whatever components it contacts and has extreme penetration. So while it will destroy part of the ship with each hit, that part of the ship may...

Note it is now in erkul. 6 point defense weapons seems to me will be nerfed. The cargo bay looks large enough for a Nursa, an MTC and several Nox—a whole ground force. The armory is so welcome, and really nice. Huge step up from what CIG promised, same as the turrets, which are now size 8...

I thought the Perseus had two big dorsal turrets but turns out one is ventral, so given the expected armor this may be perfect to fly in over a battlefield and own everyone. I don’t see how tonks and Ballistas can resist such formidable guns.
