Drake Buccaneer

[Blind Owl]

What do you call 2 complete Buccaneers and a broken in pieces 3rd?

@Grimbli's Salvage and Scrap?
A bad day at the office?
Oops, that was the self destruct button?
A three way gone wrong?

I'm leaving now.

wait a sec..... same price as a freelancer....... uh oh....... My lancer looks scared.

 

[Ripcord33]

lol flatfoot, it is a debate is it not?

 

[Phantomoftruth]

What is the reasoning behind melting the Vanguard, if I may ask. I loved her, but I didn't try her against other players. Is it too slow and unwieldy to be effective?

Only reason i have to ever own a Vanguard is the Sentinel variant for the EWar capability.

 

[Wolf Lord Caldersson]

Either way, it's true. I think I'm becoming a Drake Fanboy. Why do I get the feeling I'll end up owning a Cutlass again. Dammit. I gave my blue to @CrudeSasquatch. Haha.

I think i have a lti cutlass somewhere i have no intentions of using if you want it

Both. You want both.

lol flatfoot, it is a debate is it not?

No debate. Own both. Flagrant spending on digital ships. :) Debate solved.
We just TESTed the fuck outta that problem. Haha.

I'll keep that in mind moving forward. I've spent quite enough on ships, for the time being anyways (this totally contradicts my above statements. Do as I say dammit, not as I do. Or something.) Haha. I still do have to feed and house my family and my basement dweller.

I think I may still have a bunch of Taurus to Blue CCUs in my hanger. I'll take a look in a bit. If that's the case, then I should be good.

A herald though, that may end up being a consideration...

;)

A beautiful ship, and VERY Drake. This is the Brutus, with lots more images of it at http://doomfest.com/index.php?p=tngs_gunship

It would be nice if RSI adopted that design for the Buccaneer, but I'm dubious. I really don't want to spend any more money just now, but this design could wring it out of me.

CIG is doing a tweet-deciphered reveal... we're at phase 4 of 5 right now... and this is what we've got so far:

[Stoutman]

Did some TEST pilot take that new ship out and crash it before it's even revealed? It looks pretty wrecked right now!

 

[Blind Owl]

I'm excited. I can't wait to buy this Buc come Friday.

 

[Floating Cloud]

Bah, bait and switch. 1000 retweets but now the pirates are jamming and additional tweets are needed.

Not cool RSI, not cool

[Rolo]

Do I spy 6 weapons there?
And them main thrusters...
My! What a fast ship you seem! :-)

 

[CosmicTrader]

Large engines - No place for fuel - Ain't going very far is it?

 

[Rolo]

No internal cargo, so there's actually some room for fuel (and power plant/shield/QD) behind the cockpit. Wish we had a hint at the external cargo attachment system...
