Eagle v''s Hammerhead

Sat Mar 15, 2003 6:15 pm by Gary Bolton

I know the Eagle is probably a better ship in just about every other department than the Hammerhead. But which flyes the best? Because I think the Hammerhead has fantastic flying abilitys. And can turn really fast! Seeing as I've not tried the Eagle yet. Which of the two flys the best in combat! I've tried the Titan and that sucks compared to the Hammerhead in its flying abilitys. I've not tried the Sabre also. So does either the Sabre or the Eagle has better flying abilitys than the Hammerhead

Don't forget that the Eagle, and Titan as well, both look as dull as a grey morning. Kudos to the Hammerhead, Saber, and Valkryie.

The eagle has more manuverability, the sabre has the turret that faces forward so as to act like another gun....there are trade-offs for each...you should go out and try them both and see which one you like better yourself. just my opinion

You'd eventually want to move up to either Eagle, Sabre, or Titan because of their power rating and ability to equip level 10 weapons. But if you like the agility of Hammerhead, you should stick with Eagle. Even Sabre seem sluggish compared to Eagle.

so it seems the Eagle is the best out of the three regarding Agility. So now my final question. How does the "Eagle" fair against the Hammerhead in agility. I would still go for the Eagle if it's close, Simply because of the Level 10 Weapons and Shields it can carry. But I'm wondering how they compare against each other though in the Agility stakes! Thats the "Eagle v's Hammerhead" only.

okay.. how about the eagle compared to the Banshee?

I picked up the banshee expecting a real hotrod. But it doesn't seem to turn TOO much faster than the anubis.

i found the agility of eagle/hammerhead to be relatively equal and the armor rating of the eagle is 2000 higher than the hammerhead, plus hammerhead can't equipt C10 weapons, only C9

Oh! I thought the Eagle carried Level 10 Guns and Shields. Mmmmmm! So its basicly the same as the Hammerhead apart from some better specs.

Looks like I'll be checking the Sabre out then instead! Because I have most of the Secret Weapons here ready to install on a Level 10 Ship.

I still love the Hammerhead though. Looks auwsum, and also handles great also!

Huh? Are you reading messages correctly?

Thnks for that. I must have been half asleep when I read that message, Yes I now see it does carry Level 10
