Anubis

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Anubis

I am currently just getting ready to do the Rhineland experimental battleship mission again. I am still flying my cavalier, I was just wondering when you are supposed to get the chance to buy a Anubis for a 1 credit. Is it after this mission or did I somehow miss getting it. Thanks for any help.

You can buy the anubis on the Osiris.

Two days and Im already forgetting details, which isnt good, but IIRC you dock with the osiris after the mission your on. IN any case it wont be too much longer.

And it's 1100, not 1 credit ^_^

Actually, I just wanted to test my sig.

Well people who have HTTP Refering turned on in their browser wont see that image as geocities doesnt allow remote linking. I suggest using the free webspace you get from your ISP for hosting images because they usually alow remote linking

Back on topic: Yeah, the anubis is quite nice, I'd rather of had a choice between that and something else (Stilletto maybe?) at that point...

Just a FYI:

Everything lists Anubis as a VHF, but when I was @ freeport 9, in the shipyard
the Eagle had a 'Very Heavy Fighter' label but the Anubis only 'Heavy Fighter'.
(Oops; before a newbie is confused: I was selling Anubis, NOT buying it there.)

Also, Why is the Level 28 Centurion a HF and the level 26 Hammerhead a VHF?

To me, if you can't mount class 10 guns, you're no VHF...

And why is the Defender considered a HF when it has less armor than a Dagger? And why do they bother calling the Rhino a Freighter, when the Class 10 VHF's can carry almosta s much cargo? And why does the Starkiller torpedo do less damage than a Cannonball missile? And why does the game try so hard to steer you to one of only five ships, when there are so many to choose from?

Don't ask questions to which there are no logical answers. By all rights, the Anubis should be the tippy-top of the VHF stack, there should be a class 10 LF and a Class 10 HF and a class 10 Freighter, but none of that happens, does it?

Anubis, Hammerhead, Eagle, Sabre, and Titan are the VHF's. In three words: Deal with it.

Just to clearify...

There is a diffrence between the LF, HF, and VHF. Bit it has nothing to do with the amount of armor or the level of wepons. The difrence is the AMOUNT of wepons.

LF: 4 guns/missles, somtimes a turret
HF: 4/5 guns/missles, most of the time it has a turret, cruse distrupter/ torpedo, mines.
VHF: 6 guns/missles, turret, cruse distrupter/ torpedo, mines.
Fraighter: Mostly turrets, more cargo than other ships in it's class

So it would be possible to have a lvl 10 LF (with 2 lvl 10 guns and 2 lvl 9s) but they just don't... I must be bored...

just what u said about heavy fighters isn't right

light fighters 3 gun/missile, 0 or 1 turret
4 gun/missile, 0 turret
ps. only dagger 4 gun/missile, 1 turret

heavy fighter 5 gun/missile, 1 turret
6 gun/missile, 0 turret

very heavy fighters have all 6gun/missile and 1 turret

ps. why they called the heavy fighters not medium fighters and the very heavy fighters heavy fighters..
so then named a new class with 7 and more gun/missile very heavy fighters

I was generlizing, there are exeptions but you see my drift.

hairfarmer is right they should have made it so there are light and heavy fighters, as well as freighters that can mount class 10 meapons and sheilds. They shoud of course should have less armor and mount somewhat weakeer sheilds but at times I would gladly sacrafice two of my weapon mounts of my vhf for a more nimble machine. Does anyone know of a mod that has class 10 ships in it other than vhf's?

Post Fri May 23, 2003 1:41 pm

It's especially strange that there's no class 10 LF or Fr, since shields for both exist(and the freighter one actually has a greater capacity and recharge rate than the HF variant).
