Only inebriation can explain such laxity. Welcome!

Welcome!

Hey, if we have a broader selection I'm actually a Malcolm Reynolds kinda guy. View: https://youtu.be/kVyCovIdW-s

This was a great analysis and I do love mixing the stealth capability with range to get the proper result. I had no idea tarantulas were such an advantage here. I'm curious if anyone has seen a pattern for how long it takes ships to cool to what percent of their rafed IR when inactive. A lot...

Well, three things to note: 1) Sabres have 3 shield generators, usually loaded with FR-66 that combined have a high refresh you need to take to account. 2) Friendlies are supposed to share radar data in the future, so the scan radius of a convoy is going to be formidable, especially if it's...

That's a good analysis, but I question who is going to fly Tanas as escort. the only reason I can see to do that is if you can attach escorts with NPCs or AI pilots. Generally, there are plenty of capable fighters out there. You might find you have to contend with Sabres, and that's a very...

I think for this role you may be better off with a Talon Shrike, firing missiles. Even though the Shrike only has 2 launchers, they're S3, so you get impressive range. It's certainly quiet enough no one is going to see you out at 9 km or so. 12 shots, ~ 9k damage each. No sighting trail back...

Yeah, your use for the ship was my first question. You did grab my interest though so i pulled up erkul and looked at the numbers. They're pretty surprising. I have not found any configuration with IR so low as you're suggesting. However, with all stealth grade A components and a pair of...

I just got the five year warning a couple days ago. Time sure flies. Seems like just last month I was sticking the cool bannana seat on my stingray.

Yes. The moment you introduce a "duty cycle" of any kind, the Ion suddenly towers. With such a high refresh rate, so long as it can retreat out of a fire arc or damage zone in any way, it can fight indefinitely.

Actually no. Coolers are not intended to affect weapons shutdown from overheating. The issue with stealth coolers is they lower the ship's running temp significantly over other coolers, and do so without creating much EM. There are however ways to improve the cooling rate as opposed to the...

Keep in mind that the culture war is not a battle between equally vested opponents. The Right are Traditionalists who look at the glass as half full, while Progressives on the Left see it as half empty. The result of course is that the Right is centered on preserving tradition, not pressing...

Yes but keep in mind the issue is not can you hit a distant target, but how often can you hit a distant target. An Ion with an FR-76 and two Sukoran has a shield refresh of 1,148/s and a total shield strength of 101,713 pts, and the shield blocks all incoming ballistic damage, so there's no way...

I think this is the very thing that may be changing, result of several influences. First of all, the General Public punished Disney for the way they dishonored Luke. That was Kathleen Kennedy's work, and was a quite deliberate smack at "the patriarchy". The public was not amused by her hatred...

I think it will be great for ripping into Vanduul Kingships! I can't think of a better cap ship attack platform, as they're going to be very hard to hit from distance. The current stats for the Behring M9A laser cannon are 4583 dps, and even if that changes, this is a ship meant for just one...

I agree, but had I plunked down cash for a BMM years ago, I'd be pissed.

I think when players see the rotation and acceleration numbers they're going to be disappointed. I suspect they'll be about the same as the Connie--no good for dogfighting. However, for its intended role of attacking cap ships it will indeed be an awesome ship. For once I'm onboard with the...

Your estimate looks spot on to me.
