Nope. M6 (Hyperion Vanguard).JMCorp wrote:is that an m7m? if you have the missile turrets set to auto-attack enemies they will launch missiles without you hitting the launch key. no other ship does that in my experience.Gold Dragon wrote: I've had the ship I'm on fire missiles without my pressing the Launch key. It's why I really HATE the auto-loading of missiles everythime you leave/re-board the ship.
Actually no, Steve is using Falcon Haulers and a couple of Falcon sentinels (2x200MJ shield), the latter on user requests. Note that the sentinels can only be bought second hand.blueskin wrote:I had a question, although I can't see them on your assets list anymore, I seem to remember you using Falcon Vanguards as wingmen / pounders.
They were actually Falcon Haulers and they haven't vanished, just been reassigned. What exactly they're up to these days I'll explain soon.blueskin wrote:I had a question, although I can't see them on your assets list anymore, I seem to remember you using Falcon Vanguards as wingmen / pounders.
I've been doing the same but have just noticed that I can get Falcon Haulers with the same shielding, and since they can carry XL cargo, I'm going to load them with a lasertower each for big targets.
Was there any reason you've chosen the Vanguards over the other variants? I'm using EBC so the laserbank is less of an issue...
I see a recursion forming. Leo 'Steve' Kayean was part of a 'elite ninja-badass' team, and boarded 'the kinds of ships everyone else much prefers to run away from', and ended up a free man. So now, he's basically training his replacements!Some of them have even made 4-star fighting grade. I think one more good capture and a few of the guys here will have hit the magic 5-stars which promotes them to my elite ninja-badass training program where they'll ultimately get given the opportunity to die horribly boarding the kinds of ships everyone else much prefers to run away from.

Its that front turret, all M3+ act as aggro magnets because of that. Perhaps best to set it to attack my target so that it doesn't shoot at anything and everything.NUCLEAR-SLUG wrote:.. Yep, it's 'Limbo' once again taking a beating.
Only the Argon Eclipse. The Prototype, Advanced, and Pirate Eclipse all use 3x25MJ.Megamolanius wrote:Its that front turret, all M3+ act as aggro magnets because of that.

PS Something weird in the info display for Limbo, I was under the firm impression that Eclipses have 1x200MJ shield but the info mentions 75MJ
Didn't know about the pirate version, checked it out and it sucks, poor Limbo he truly is in limbo, its a miracle he has survived so long. Week shield, week recharge (800), ...Thelic wrote:Only the Argon Eclipse.

The advanced version has 4x25MJ and the prototype 5x25MJ both with excellent recharge, respectively 1200 and 1500. So those rock.
