The Carrack is currently beating the Reclaimer by a superior margin.

RIP Reclaimer... you had a good run last year

 

[Talonsbane]

Each of you is entitled to your own opinions. Mine is that I'm strongly against CIG allowing past Ship Showdown final 4 winners being allowed to ever compete in the annual competition again. There's enough vehicles in the verse to not need them. This being said, my overall final 4 picks will be Carrack, Banu Defender, Avenger Titan & 890J. Which ships are each of you routing for?

Looks like the Carrack is eating the Reclaimer's breakfast. Here's hoping that it'll also eat the lunch of the ship in its next round. Carrack for the final 4 if not winner overall.

If you are interested in CCUs, especially for the reclaimer, I would advise you look to get it today. IIRC, each time a ship was eliminated last year, the CCU went away.

 

[Thalstan]

Oh, and if you are interested in a limited ship, *cough* 890...it’s being sold every day in two waves. See this thread for more details. https://robertsspaceindustries.com/spectrum/community/SC/forum/1/thread/ship-showdown-890-jump-waves-1

I can't even log into RSI to vote. Sad face

Thank goodness for TEST, eh?

 

[BUTUZ]

Carrack is live, Carrack is life.

 

[Blind Owl]

Thank goodness for TEST, eh?

Indeed. At least there's beer here! Haha

 

[SoloFlyer]

I have a terrapin that I'm not married to, wondering if I should turn it into something else. Maybe a reclaimer in the hopes that salvaging turns out decent

Salvage will be awesome.



Soon. Lol.
Honestly though, that's a lot of ship. I'm hoping for a medium sized salvage ship at some point

 

[Bambooza]

Ya, I feel sad for the Reclaimer going up against the Carrack in the first round.

 

[Thalstan]

not me, the reclaimer got the glory last time...

 

[Sky Captain]

Core FTW!

 

[Blind Owl]

Carrack will win this. Easily on the top 8 ships. For the bottom eight, it'll be between the Valk and the 890j, although the Prowler has a shot as well. I say the final 4 will be Carrack, Cutty Black, HH, and Valk.

 

[Grimbli]

I kinda want a massive upset and have the Reliant Kore win the whole thing. Would be hilarious.

 

[stockish]

Anyone surprised that the Carrack is winning? It basically will make it to final 4 without a doubt.

 

[NaffNaffBobFace]

After about 15 hours the votes stand heavily in the Carracks favour, a late groundswell to save the Reclaimers reputation seems unlikely... has 2950 produced a new contender for the crown?

Only time, and wild assumptions until that point, will tell.
