RSI Ship Vote #3 - Bomber of the Year (Retaliator Vs. Gladiator)
- Thread starter Floating Cloud
- Start date
I'm not really certain which one of these to choose. I'll have to fly both and see what I think. I haven't really considered whether I want a bomber in my fleet.

considering the retaliator looks amazing and is huge and got a lovely interior, it gets my vote.. :D
remember to get your free 0 dollar CCU from redeemer to warden, you know, just in case you ever would want one.

The Aurora is the Bomb, not a bomber (Though, technically, it is delivering ordinance to the target. So, nevermind. Carry on) Aurora bomber --> best bomber
Well having just flown the Gladiator in Vanduul swarm, I rather like it. As a bomber the Retaliator may be superior, but since I can't see me needing a capital ship killer more than once a year, I think I'll have to vote for the 'deadliest bathtub in space' ...the Gladiator.
Realistically though these ships just don't compete in the same arena. One at $90 and one at $270?
Edit note: correction, the original price of the Gladiator was $165, not $90.

I didn't choose the tali, because i'm not a fan of relying on manned Turrets for ship defence, and the Gimbal mounts on the Gladi are pretty strong.
What i don't like, is how you enter the Gladi. (don't know here the excact spot is.

I voted retaliator because to me it is the better bomber, though I really do hate that ship.
I voted the Tali. Gladiator can be very effective against Vanduuls and pirates, Tali is more versatile. It can be used as a bomber, dropship, heavy armed transporter and personnel transporter.
Isn't it $165 vs $275 ?
The retaliator is far superior due to it being modular, but it seemed limited when I had one cause it needed a full crew to be capable of any real survivability. I had one and traded it out for the starfarrer. If a person has a full crew I could see the retaliator as being a super fortress like the B29. There is nothing wrong with the ship when I had it. I am just not a bomber pilot per say. that said though, I would crew up on one in a heartbeat. I just wont own another one or pilot it. just not my style.
I knew it, looked it up, but I like this way more then saying: "You are wrong!!!, It is ....." ;)
I voted Gladiator for no real reason except I think it looks better than the Retaliator.
