Just wait until we're all paying premium prices for gas. $4/gallon sucks. Park that baby in a busy thoroughfare and you'll be happy for her
Still that's no reason to PAY for your ships. That's bad form.

Then submit yourself to her glory. Let her wrap you in the warming embrace that a ship always reserves for its captain. You may not be able to carry as much beer in it as you could the Farer, but you'll be finding a shit-ton more of it with those fancy antennas!
Truth. However, the entire mechanic of being a space gas jockey simply doesn't interest me whatsoever. If my game time is going to be limited by real life obligations, then the time I do spend in game, I want to be enjoyable.
Haha, indeed. I can melt and have an amazing fleet. Maybe even sell my other game packages from my buy back for future upgrades.

I just wanted to keep the excitement level at 100%:

Can't wait to see her hangar ready, walking around inside and outside. She is such a beauty. *love*

I really hope the Pisces snub/runabout will be able to at least have a Q-drive. Imo it should also have a jump drive so you can explore smaller jump points that the Carrack can't get through.
From the dimensions given it appears she will fit an avenger.
I would like to try to stick a Terrapin on top of the Carrack and see if that works :D
when a Terrapin and a Carrack love each other very much...
I asked this question every week for weeks on the "10 for the..." thread. I never did get an answer. I pray it does though.
Their love child...a Carrapin?
I believe that love child would be the Pieces :P
With any luck the Carrack gets bigger and we end up with a bay big enough for a Terrapin but we will see. Its dimensions are very similar to the Avenger. So if you want to know about how big it is look at one of those. It is also smaller than every other fighter out there apart from the Mustang and Gladius (in 2 of 3 dimensions).
In order to make it fit one tho and keeping the current size proportional the entire ship would have to grow 1.8 times larger to be able to fit a Terrapin (roughly assuming everything else stays the same.) That is based on the fact it can barely fit a Merlin with its wings folded right now (according to the holo model that is). So nearly doubling in size it would be in the Frigate class at that point and will not happen unless a miracle happens lol.
I'm happy with the Pisces. I don't need a pocket carrier. It's a group play game. If I'm going out in my Carrack, I want a couple others flying on my wing. A Terrapin, a couple fighters. Good lord I can't wait.

Nice ! Seems already very large, but I bet it gets much larger, and I have some reasons to support why.
some of why would be that it would in fact make a decent WRECK lore wise AND size wise.
Foundry 42 is working on it.
Big focus on FPS levels around the time it is going to be worked on.
They will most likely make it so two people can walk on all the stairs side by side and in the hallways everywhere, this will force it to become larger, also they will give you enough room to walk along the sides of any storage or vehicles, because of clipping issues and camera angles, because this is a videogame and it wouldn't look good in any presentation unless they did so.
What is the PISCES? Heard of her the first time.
(Not quite a wise name though - the "piss-kes", haha :rolleyes:)

So, why don't take the name "fish" I'm asking?
What is the Zodiac?

Not "fish" because "quidquid latine dictum, altum videtur" (anything said in Latin sounds profound). Pisces is the name of the star constellation, like Andromeda, Taurus, Gemini (all Latin names for constellations).
Zodiac refers to astrological birth signs. Fortune telling based on the constellations in view when you were born (more commonly known as mumbo jumbo :rolleyes:).
Okay, check on this one, thanks for explaining. That brings the circle of explanations to its beginning: what is meant to be the "Pisces" (such an awful name) within SC?

I thought it was the scout snub belonging to the Carrack. Maybe I'm wrong though.
