I'm still trying to decide which fighter I want more. Sabre or SH. I love them both so much.
While very pretty, I found the Sabre too... drifty (maybe the wrong word) for my tastes. I'm pretty used to how the other Hornets fly, they feel like they have weight that you have to push where you want it to go with all thrusters and engine close to the center. The Sabre feels very light, almost like you are hanging onto the thrusters and they are pulling you where you are going. Almost like the difference between rear wheel drive (Hornets) and front wheel drive (Sabre).
Not saying the Sabres are bad, not at all. Deadly ballerinas in the right hands. But they do seem to fly very differently.

Waiting with baited breath for the Bucky. One thing I took away from the CitCon demo was the no armor/no rifle in the pilot's seat. Neither Hornet nor Sabre has hinted at having a trunk for your gear (I guess you can get the storage box for the Hornet, but you lose 40% of your firepower to do so), whereas the Bucky is supposed to have some sort of gun rack or smuggler compartments. I quite like the ground game mixed with the air game, so I'm anxious to see more of it.

Are bizzare as it is, it's actually a good deal (as far as internet .pngs go)

Buying those ships piecemeal would be 1780 USD, whereas the pack is 1450. Almost 20% off, and with LTI. And all the ships still have their full CCU value, so if you're a high roller you basically get 300 bucks in upgrade credits for free.

Not bad at all. If the Aggressor Pack had LTI or a game package I would consider making it my primary package. I already have a Black and Bucc, so it'd basically be 2 free Dragonflies for my Caterpillar.

Just remember that it's fast and nimble...for a capital ship. This thing will make a fully loaded Tali look like an M50.


I'm resisting the urge to melt all but my Cutlass for it, but I love my Cat too much -.-

Take it off sale CIG, take it off!
There will be so many people in Test with this thing I don't think you'll have to worry about getting on one.
