Rumor is they extended the cargo area in the exploration version, as well as moved some stuff in the hangar so it accommodates larger craft.

My guess is, the only exception to the rule about smaller ships unable to grapple larger ones is the Vanduul Cleaver, since it does not grab with a tractor, but rather tears into the hull of its target in order to load boarders.

Agreed. I wanted to love the 600i but found the poor use of space daunting. Sounds like CIG heard the complaints.

Anyone heard of the rework on the 600i, that now includes a T2 med bed, and tighter use of the space inside?

The volume of space a ship can scan is the product of the scan diameter area times the SCM speed of the ship. The ships are supposed to both have Large scan arrays, so given there are no other differences in scanning, the difference is all in the SCM speed. I would not be surprised if the...

Most people here know I am very transparent with my views It’s quite some time since the Ares came out and yet I have not shared any observations nor opinions about it. It’s competing with my beloved Sentinel, so I really didn’t want to find it is in any way a better ship. Seems we can’t always...

The trouble with this has always been the Polaris was slated for a single Large shield instead of Cap class. However, first analysis of the Odyssey already has players wondering of CIG won't need to upgrade the Polaris shield since it is bigger than the Odyssey and is a dedicated military ship...

Both great vids. Thanks for this. Some things to note about comparisons to the Carrack. . . The Odyssey has Cap powerplant, cooler and shields. The Carrack has all Large. In general, Cap components cannot be swapped out, but are superior to Large components. The Carrack has about 40% more...

Has anyone tried putting Eclipse and Nightfall in this and leaving the guns and shields off? It has an extremely low IR and if the EM goes below 9k we may have a new stealth champion hauler. Certainly its no use trying to fight in this thing, but I love the interior layout enough I can imagine...

I don't have a pic of the Carrack's hangar for comparison. i just know it doesn't fit the longer small ships like 300 series, Talon, Khartu-Al, Reliant, etc. Any bay will fit an Arrow. No bays fit Vanguards (save maybe on the Bengal.) It's all the ships between that are in question. The 300...

This is one of those ships you don't need to own. It's going to have so many owners who need crew it will be easy to find one to fly on. Since it is deep space, it's a great place to put an alt. The cost of being in charge is you need to spend a lot of time fashioning a great crew who will...

Looks like the dorsal opens like a Polaris (probably sans lift) for the hangar, and that the stern lowers a ramp for a vehicle bay. Think of a Polaris with no weapons. If it includes an advanced scan suite, might make a great companion to the Polaris for deep excursions. The flat section that...

"Survey distant frontiers and explore the furthest reaches of space with the MISC Odyssey, the most advanced and complete exploration ship available to civilians. Designed to be supremely self-sufficient, the Odyssey comes with an on-board refinery with built-in mining tech, expansive capacity...

I don't like the fore engines at all. Flip 'em on and melt the aft half of the ship. Get rid of them and this looks a lot more like a Lancer.

Maybe the second bridge is a mining station? From the size and shape of the bridge, this looks bigger than the Connie.

I would not be surprised to see a MISC direct Carrack competitor. Carrack is top tier, which implies others in its tier. Something between the 600i and Carrack that makes tighter/better use of space than either would be welcome.

The Redeemer's range is 250% that of the Vanguards. For instance, if you put the same Hemera drive in them, with a decent Q speed of 126 Mk/s, the Vanguard has a range of 298 Mkm, and the Redeemer has a range of 679 Mkm.

The 4 Vanguards have 4 S5 gats, same as the Redeemer, and 24 S2 weapons. The real difference is those shields. I thought the Redeemer has 1S3 shield. That's planely not the case. With the huge increase in s3 shield size, this is an enormous difference. It's not large for a medium ship...
