We won't know until they release it, but if you want a gunship, get a gunship.

The Gladius is a blast to fly. It is well armed, pretty robust, fast and very agile.

Avenger and Valkyrie fits in your store credit. :) With AI blades all of the Valkyrie guns should be able to be pilot slaved. That would be something nobody wants to get in front of. Or the turrets can be put on point defense with blades.

You don't have a carrier based fighter. Hornet Wildfire, Super Hornet or Sabre depending on your flight style. You and I believe range is important, but this is Test Squadron and people are going to need carried fighters. I already mentioned a general purpose starter ship. If you like the...

He has one.

Something, small, cheap, easy to replace, inexpensive to operate. Basically a starter ship. Aurora, Mustang, Avenger, 300 series.

Two major hurdles? Chris Roberts and the QA staff. Chris gets in the way with his next new shiny. The QA staff either isn't up to the task or the devs bypass QA. Not sure which but something is really screwed up there.

On the flip side the 5 Retaliators can give you a 30 torp time on target strike, where the Polaris is limited to 4 tubes and 4 at a time. Primary target for Size 9 and 10 torps is probably, by design, fleet trains. (Hull D-E, Star Farers, Hercules, Orions, Reclaimers, and similar) plus typical...

With capturing live bounties in the near future, I was kind of hoping for something in competition for the Blue. Or stasis pods mechanic.

Titan suits, as shown so far, are huge. You won't fit in any current seat. You even have a difficult time just turning around in most of the corridors that currently exist, or moving through current doors/hatches.

Never talk about fight club.

The Valkyrie has 4 turrets. One dual on both top and bottom, one single on each side. They are set up with interlocking fields of fire and there is no place you can be without at least two turrets able to engage you. Add in the slightly lighter pilot pair and the smaller door guns and a hot LZ...

Other than the number of troop seats, (it should have 22-24), I did notice some things that are missing. No weapons or ammo storage for the Marines. No Weapon storage for the crew. No crew lockers in the crew quarters. For the number of people carried, that is a really small head.

The Valkyrie flies at over 1 kps. It is also quite maneuverable (it isn't a fighter, but it isn't supposed to be.). It should be quite hardy, like the Terrapin you can see the armor plating. It is not as versatile as I would like, yet, but it is versatile. Gunship/Assault Transport/Light...

Well we have a new PTU and I am playing with the Valkyrie. It flies a little better than a base Freelancer, but not much. Not sure it is worth the money.

Both the Cutlass Black and the Base Freelancer can, currently, carry a cyclone however the Freelancer is too narrow to get out of the Cyclone, and the Cyclone doesn't actually fit through the rear of the Cutlass if the physics boxes were correct.

The image you showed of the DUR was size 3 Attrition Laser Repeaters. When you look at the weapon screen in the cockpit on the DUR what does it say? This is the screen from the Base, which I just rented. Tarantula MKIII Autocanons (Balistic) The MIS has GT-220 Mantis Ballistic Gatling Guns.

Those are a pair of size 3 Attritions on the DUR. Each Attrition Laser repeater has 2 barrels, like each Panther has 3 and a GT220 has 4. It is still a pair of size 3 weapons per side.

The Base Freelancer, like the MIS and DUR and Max all have two size 3 guns per side. Since the rework they all also have the rear turret. The Base has two tarantulas per side, (Which it has had since the Size 4 Combines were downgraded) while the MIS has 2 GT-220 per side. I believe the MAX is...

That is a Hoplite, not a Valkyrie. :) Thanks though.
