they used that as the [redacted] image for the Hammerhead so we thought it might be a Drake ship.

Ohh.... I didn't even notice it as a Cutlass Red. I thought it was the Hammerhead from the Hawk Brochure, ha.

OK, this thing might get me to break my no new investment rule.....
That is an epic flying fist fuck of a gunboat, holy shit.

Did I miss the part where they talked about where in the Pipe line it was? Sounds like people are working on parts of it but they oddly didn't do a shipshape "where in the pipe " it is.
They did it for the Hawk, seems odd not to do it for the Hammerhead. I got the sense its in white box/grey box middle ground but /shrug.
P.S. pretty F'n cool, would a Hammerhead or a Polaris win in a fight ?

I know there's no such thing as "enough dakka" but jesus alive that's within spitting distance.
If CIG doesn't blow me out of the water with a giant Caterpillar update and a slew of awesome modules, bye bye Caterpillar, too bad you had parking sensors instead of viable firepower for a pirate freighter.

If the Torpedorito can engage at distance it wins, close-in, it's gonna be an epic slugfest no matter the outcome.
I'd have to look at the specs more carefully, DPS the Hammerhead can dishout vs the Torpedorito's shield capacity compared to the Torpedorito's turrets (which does include the dual Size 5 forward turret). From most angles it looks like the Hammerhead can bring the equivalent of the main batteries of 3 or 4 Connie's, and from ahead it can bring all 24 Size 4 weapons to bear (just say that with me, all 24 size 4 weapons....wow).
I'd give the edge to the Polaris as a true capital ship with Capital class Radar, Armor and Powerplant, but the shields appear to be equal, may just come down to luck.
I'll pay tree-fiddy to see it go down.

I like how the gun boat even carries decent cargo, ha. Enough to carry a rover and then some.
But what if it punches above its weight :0
took my price down to 450USD as it caps at 100....
Disagree, the Polaris is designed to take on large ships, those torps are killer, if the Polaris can get a torp run in the hammerhead is doomed. The hammerhead on the other side needs to stay away from the torps line of fire, and deal its damage over time. But it will be great when the two work together, the hammerhead will be crazy deadly vs fighters and be able to clear a path for the Polaris to make a deadly run at a large ship.
I forgot about mine also
not exactly a 20% discount if it caps at $100

Imagine how lovely it would be if all the guns were filled with S4 Quad Revenants
At least until it's time to pay for a reload of ammo :scream_cat:

Shit. I now own the Hammerhead.
I'll probably melt it and buy a polaris but I'll still have it in the pot

I hate CIG.
Since when we're digital pixels this attractive at such a high price.
Tell me any other game or digital activity that can charge you $600 and you smile whilst doing it.
Don't answer that. Seriously.

I seriously regretted not getting the Polaris. Not anymore. Not at all anymore...
