Gas clouds aren't dangerous unless you sit right in one and stay there a while. Even with a Starflier or Patriot, I've never had to even touch the shield battery key going through a gas pocket. Mines are far more deadly.

There's a big Egyptian theme in Libery space, for some odd reason. Take a look at their base interiors (Battleships and planets, anyway). Considering the background of the people in that house, one would expect more of a Native American theme, or perhaps (as in the "official" Liberty ship designs) some kind of neo-patriotic thing. :/

For the last time...there is no "N" in "TURRET"!

well, in sigma 13 or 17, wherever the gas pockets are, you can't really see them so well in cruise mode.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

turn ur map on patrol patches, where no lines are in sigma-13, but around that place is are gas-pocket fields...

I also forgot about the Thoth weapons, BTW -- I think they're of Liberty Rogue design.

The real point of the anubis is that its the best fighter you can get in the SP campaign. It may be useless afterwards, but its certainly a good jumping off point toward getting a true VHF. I flew against the Hessians in Omega 41 with an anubis with (almost) no trouble. It is certainly a good ship.

hessians.... their u call bad pilots... even a semi-n00b can kill them in a lower fighter...

i killed hunters in the edge worlds with a defender... even in a dagger... however it is better to have the defender for larger trafeling distances

the anubis is a very good fighter, it has 7 forward firering barrels, with is also by the sabre, only can turn faster and kill the sabre easy by that... the class 6 shield you get with it is a great shield also, the weaps can be better, but isn't needable in the beginning, only in the edge worlds... however the plasma rifles are great (don't know the name anymore on the osiris, and if they sell them in an cheaper outload then the normal class 6 and lower leveled classes)
