I doubt it qualifies as a glass cannon. The Hurricane is a glass cannon. The Arrow is supposedly 2XS1 plus 2XS2, which is less firepower than the Gladius. It may however be faster than the Gladius, which would give us a new interceptor dynamic in game. Would be nice. I pulled this from a...

Yeah. Jags were at the very bottom of the customer satisfaction list back before they were bought by Ford specifically becasue of some of the crazy engineering that broke often. Ford did indeed fix this and they skyrocketed to the very top of the list for a decade. I drove mine every day for...

Yes. Yes it will.

Well a Corsair is a pirate or Privateer! This should be Drake's bread and butter ship, and big brother to the Cutty. Just hoping for 3, S5 turrets and a small attack profile.

I am actually hoping for the Corsair. I'm not a Drake fan, but the description has me interested. Something Connie sized that is faster and has more guns sounds great fun! If it had a low attack profile, like say the Polaris shape, I'd be all in for that.

Are they rotating quickly too? And straifing?

It was slated for large scanner back when they were the largest. CIG decided to add a Cap class afterward and never changed the spec on the Carrack, but the design was from the start for it to provide cap class scan, so it is a safe bet I think it will have this. Otherwise there is little...

I love Jags. I drove an XKR for 7 years and it is by far the best toy I have ever owned. May your new ride serve you well! Did you notice though, they put the steering wheel on the wrong side of the car? My old ride, was 390 HP. The newer ones are 510 HP.

End of November was the guess. If it's what we're told, could become best in class: The Drake Corsair is a multi-crew explorer. Differs from the 600i by its crude basic construction and from the Constellation by its lower missile count, but with a third turret to make up for it. It is able to...

Just needs a bigger hangar, and I'm sure they'll sell those too. Personally, I want to be able to walk down the flight line in an asteroid hideaway, past a dozen different Vanguards. Needs a bigger hangar.

Was there a give-away at $200M?

How cool is that? I'm surprised it fits.

The Reliant was billed as a top-shelf starter ship, same as the Avenger. It is an upgrade to the Avenger so far as crew number. It's the only starter ship that can take a crew of two. It is however fragile, difficult to fly well since it rotates very slowly on the pitch and yaw and has...

Thanks for this. How are the new missions? I'm most interested in those that can be flown in a fighter, or maybe even a Raven--no transports. Are there missions aplenty?

Just glancing over--if they make the Carrack Bay just 18m, the Blade, Buccaneer and Hawk will all fit. 20m the Gladius, and Eclipse will fit. 22 M the Hurricane will fit. 24 M almost any dogfighter will fit. The Bucky only needs 15 M, so whatever they do with the Carrack, there should be...

Kendo is cool. Count me impressed. God bless and go gett'em!

Yeah. The original spec on the Carrack hangar was it would fit the original Avenger too, but no telling what will happen. Virtually every ship grows larger in development, so I would not be surpsied if they make the Carrack bay fit small dogfighters. The Gladius is very small and poses a...

Yes, though I think some of the sytems were designed to be incompatible. Last I checked (many months ago) the Vanduul reactors and coolers will a single unit, and were heavier than UEE equipment, so you would not port that over. OTOH, the Vanduul plasma weapons are superior alpha strike...

It's a large ship, but it is slated to come with a cap ship scan package (despite what the ships page says.) The advantage over the 890 and BMM is not just the scan. It's the hangar. The hangar will support as many fighters as you want to pay for escort, so long as they fit. Also note the...
