    [im still alive :D ]

    Free massages in prison? I thought it was bad we give prisoners free gym rights ('cause who doesn't want the bad guys all burly?) and free tattoos. So really, anyone discharged from German prison gets $2,000/month for life? Is that really true?

    Is the Warden worth getting?

    On the issue of long range, one thing to keep in mind is that without a bed in your bird, when you log you will get bumped back to a dock somewhere, probably back where you started. With the bed you can log, sleep, work, go eat dinner, etc.; and the Warden will be right where you left it when...

    Do I Really Need a Fighter?

    Yup. Need to wait and see, though I can't understand how the Tally can act as a bomber with such a low speed unless it has some limited stealth. I would look for that as stealth comes into game. 188k is a lot more than the Lancer Max and a pair of Cultass which is 98k. Twice as much. We need...

    Ship speeds (max velocity SCM vs AB) 2.6.1

    I suggest you define the terms used in the doc and post a link. For the largest group to be able to use the sheet, they need to know what the different speeds mean, and they need to be able to find your work. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...ymcp3JpCcD96REDS9rpJBDG70/edit#gid=1875385912

    Do I Really Need a Fighter?

    By adding the Freelancer you lose the nice high top speed of the Cutlass. This is just what I recommend against. Ships with high top speeds are optimized around this, and to throw this benefit away for any reason should be done with great hesitancy. Part of what makes the Cutlass a great ship...

    Do I Really Need a Fighter?

    It still sounds that we will be able to hire NPCs as crew, including as pilots of escort craft. If that happens, people will pay top dollar for NPC pilots and put them in that "extra" fighter ship they had. Now if you planned to take special advantage of the Cutlass and want to consider it a...

    Vanguard weapons. . .

    The calculator won't open right now so I can't check, but I believe if you look at the very short S5 list, at top is the version we will eventually be able to mount, and near the bottom is the Vanduul version. Looks like we will be able to mount their weapons, but keep in mind they overheat...

    Friday Feb 24th - The Hurricane - $175

    Yes, but it is also the only long range fighter which complicates comparisons. Yeah. I would certainly want to fly it with the gimbal as energy and primary, and the fixed as secondary ballistic, but right now you can't. I honestly don't understand CIG's intention restricting the fixed guns...

    What will we do on fleets while warping?

    That was all full of pretty friggin' AWESOME!

    Vanguard weapons. . .

    For flying Vanguards with the big gun fixed, I am still liking the WAR Neutron Cannon, since its pip lines with the nose lasers, is fast and has incredible range, which changes the capability of the fighter as a whole. For the turret, it seems to me a great upgrade from the Sawbucks are the...

    Friday Feb 24th - The Hurricane - $175

    Here is some wonderful analysis of the whole heavy fighter role in general (and how it passed away) and how this applies to the Hurricane. I agree with all of this analysis except that I think the ship will sell in the price slot between the Hornet and the Sabre--probably about $170-190, and I...

    New Drake Cutlass WIP

    So the count is the Cutlass Blue and Black will mount up to 10 Pyros, is that right? 8900 DPS across a field it is hard to miss at, once it is in range, of course? Can blow the shields off anything smaller than a Polaris in one second? and crush it in the second second?

    New Drake Cutlass WIP

    The Lancers have a bigger problem. They have a terrible field of view. It is very easy for an opponent to hide outside your field of view and you should expect them to in a conflict. I would never want to be flying a Lancer in any sort of contest that includes proximity. Launching missiles...

    New Drake Cutlass WIP

    Do you know what the truth is behind the rumors that the missile racks will be reconfigured so all sips can have fewer larger missiles or more smaller missiles? Right now, the Lancer Mis is in some ways out missile-boats the Conny, in that it has S3 missiles. It could lose some of its...

    Your most sought after ship?

    The ship I want most to kick around with friends in is the Polaris. Gotta have the pool table. The ship I want most to fly fun ops in is the Sentinel. Gotta have the extra missiles, EMP charges and other sacred EM warfare suite stuff to make others crazy. I think it is planned to be the...
