Sabre handles better and the turret basicly gives it a 7th forward firing gun. The trade-off is less armor and cargo space.

EDIT: Also, the Titan seems to be much more prone to getting it's guns blasted away if your shields go down. Replacing Class 10 guns is a pain in the arse.

Just traded in my Eagle for a Sabre. What a mistake. Eagle handles much better than Sabre but would only handle 3 class 10 guns instead of class 10's all around. I can live with that. I need to find the optimal gun/turret/missile configuration for the Sabre. Wish it had a bigger cargo hold. I only make half as much on a diamond run since I gave up Humpback.

Just went home for lunch and was headed to the "unknown jump hole" into Nomad space but before I could get through I was attacked by Nomads. I blew them all up and came away with consumer goods, silver, (andto my surprise), a Nomad class 10 gun. I was not able to mount the Nomad gun at the equip dealer on Malta. I don't really know how what to do with this weapon. Do I need to buy Titan just to be able to use it?

Do the Eagle and Saber cost the same?

sabre costs more, sabre is a tradeoff between eagle and titan imho and you can mount nomad weapons on any lvl 10 slot, like sabre's =p

If your ship is capable of mounting level 10 weapons, just click the little blue box in the top left corner to unmount a weapon in a level 10 capable mount point, then click the box on the level 10, voila, mounted.

oké now i really have a problem i have over a million credits but i really dont know wich ship i shoud buy Sabre,Titan,Eagle?

I just finished the SP campaign and a little hacking befriended me with the Corsairs. A lot of flying around looking for jumpholes and I'm now the proud owner of a Titan, Planet Crete registration.
I haven't played with the sabre or eagle but I don't see too much of a difference in handling from one fighter class ship to another. The Titan is manouverable, has a good amount of cargo and nano/batt space and is tough as heck! I haven't bothered with the lvl 10 guns I've found though, too much energy drain. The Corsairs also sell the Salamanca (Class 9), which is an awesome weapon (almost 500 hull damage and only 97 energy). So I bought six. Oh and the Titan has a Turret slot too.....so I went to Cadiz and bought....yep you guessed it, the salamanca turret! Hehe. Adv Brigandine shields means she can take a pummeling whilst killing almost anything in one or two passes. Highly recommended.
