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...

My bad. I thought it was 1 S3 and forgot about the 3.14 changes. That is tanky alright. Changes everything.

On Reddit and Facebook, players say the Redeemer cannot evade missiles as it has insufficient maneuverability. It will be interesting to see how this works out. i know the Redeemer does include countermeasures, so it is designed in some sense to evade, whereas most ships sporting large shields...

IMHO, if you're not going to put players in at least 4 seats on the Redeemer, you're better off with some sort of Vanguard mix--not necessarily the Warden. With 5 players, you can field at least 4 Vanguard. The Redeemer cannot manage 4 Vanguard at once. On the first slavo, 4 Harby's can...

No, it's a design constraint. Remember originally, the SINGE-2 Tachyon cannons were instantaneous to target, and were nerfed back to 2,000mps because they always hit. Even at 2,000 they had a huge advantage over everything else--too huge. I think they removed almost all the vatriety of...

Who has actually been hitting small targets with the big manned turrets? They're firing 700 mps, so not really good for hitting fighters. Has anyone tried putting four of the Slayer cannons off the Tonk on the Redeemer?
