Cant wait to do stupid things with these ships.
Congrats indeed my new friend. If I had your resources, I'd have done the same. Cheers!
I thought that the primary weapon of the Jav was it having massive torps like the Polaris & that its turrets are for defending the ship, like a super sized Retaliator.Thank you for supporting The Addiction.
Does anyone know the ranges of the S7 and S10 weapons? IIUC, the Javelin does not include S10 weapons so if the range of the various Idris guns is significantly better, this is an argument for the Idris.
That's why we buy bombers. Destroy that which makes us feel inadequate. Equality under torpedoes! Class equivalency through superior firepower!Damn, and the biggest ship I got is a Merchantman. Now i feel inadequat as a man and as a gamer.
Oh well, it also means i can make good money supplying the fleet with booze and buritos.
Until i earn enogh to buy my very own star destroyer... :-)
My Retaliator is ready.That's why we buy bombers. Destroy that which makes us feel inadequate. Equality under torpedoes! Class equivalency through superior firepower!
Dont feel inadequate - the merchantmans supposed dual size 8 turret will be a threat to an idris methinks.Damn, and the biggest ship I got is a Merchantman. Now i feel inadequat as a man and as a gamer.
Yes, the Jav is supposed to have S12 torps. Odds are good they do more damage than any other weapon in game. I was just wondering about guns because one thinks more of trading shots with an opponent. I’m curious how a Jav would fare against three Idris.I thought that the primary weapon of the Jav was it having massive torps like the Polaris & that its turrets are for defending the ship, like a super sized Retaliator.
i wonder if in the future you can arm the torpedos and use them as “cargo”Yes, the Jav is supposed to have S12 torps. Odds are good they do more damage than any other weapon in game.

Torps can be shot down. They’re quite slow and it appears at least at present they’ll need fighter escort to make it to their targets. Even with an escort, target turrets will have several seconds to try to eliminate them. This has made me curious about what might run as a shield of sorts. Can you back a Railen loaded with boxes of waste toward a target and absorb incoming S4 weapon fire? I think some odd solution may appear here; just not sure what it is. What can absorb 5 seconds of quad Revenant fire?
with janitorial credentials I’d say your qualified to at least use one of the many guns. Or hell you could lead one of the test fleets probably.Congrats man...that's so very cool! I'd be the janitor on your Javelin if only to admire your ship :)
I need to get on that ship. I would like to apply for the position of button pusher/switch puller. I can supply references.with janitorial credentials I’d say your qualified to at least use one of the many guns. Or hell you could lead one of the test fleets probably.
This might seem stupid to some, but as a LONG time RPG player that has specialized in tanking, I'd love to see CIG come out with a military ship that instead of having heavy firepower, has large quantities of armor & multiple layers of shields to help block hits for other ships. Almost full power to shields with the rest to engines, act as a mobile shield for torps until just before impact & then RAM that ship hard at the impact site.Yes, the Jav is supposed to have S12 torps.
