Weapons Loadout!

I'd Just like to know what everybodies preferable weapons layout on their fighters. I am mainly interested in knowing and understanding your reasons behind your choices.

I shall start with mine:

On my newly acquired SABRE

1) Tizona Del Cid (cl 9)
2) Tizona Del Cid (cl 9)
3) Nomad Energy Cannon (cl 10)
4) Nomad Energy Cannon (cl 10)
5) Nomad Energy Cannon (cl 10)
6) Diamondback (cl 10) or Nomad Energy Cannon (cl 10)
7) Salamanca Turret (cl 9)

I have tried many different loadouts, but i find the nomad energy cannons are the most profficient when stripping someone down to their pants coupled with the Tizona Del Cids, which discards shields like yesterdays news. The reason i have the diamondback is cos it looks COOL!

This has been repeated several times. I'm sure there was a thread just like this yesterday, or maybe the day before. Please, search the forum before asking this question, or any question which you think may have already been answered. I've listed my weapons loadout on quite a few other threads, so please look there. Thank you ::slight eye twitch::

You may have a slight problem with that eye twitch of yours, but to be honest, i didn't see anything yesterday on these forum and anyways, some people may have changed their mind since then. yourself included.

Also new people to the forum may also wish to share their views on the subject.
This is a discussion that forever changes and therefore requires new threads about it, it's not a post where i am trying to find an answer to something specific, to which i would have searched for the answer.

And besides, there's no harm in disclosing your preferences again is there?

I don’t use weapons; I just fly around and poke people in the eye with my finger.

I'm in a Crusader at the moment! Hehehe, not finished it yet.
Twin Sky Rails, Twin Angelito's, Twin Dragoons. Oh, and Razer Mines and Imp. CM.


If it wasn't for the inky blackness of the night you wouldn't appreciate the brilliance of the stars... or the little Liberty Rogue ship exploding nicely alongside you.

On the Hammerhead:

3x SkyBlast B(class 9)
1x Cannonball missile(class 9)
2x SkyBlast A(class 8)
1x SkyBlast Turret B(class 9)
1x Ripper mine launcher
1x Adv. Countermeasures
1x Adv. Thruster
1x Brigandine HF shield(class 9)
1x Sunslayer torp/Hornet disrupter

Layed out so that it has similar firepower to a class 10 ship, but on a lighter, more maneuverable frame.

On the Patriot:
4x Adv. Stunpulse(class 3)
1x Ripper mine launcher
1x Adv. Countermeasures
1x Adv. Thruster
1x Guardian LF shield(class 3)
1x Hornet Disrupter

Layed out to act as a tiny bomber. 4 Adv. Stunpulse for the shields, and ripper mines to finish off the enemy.

Banshee: undecided.

Reaper: $200,000,000.
Rockets: $100,000
The look on that pilot's face when you launch a full pod of screamers up his tailpipe: priceless

IMHO the Nomad Energy BLASTER is better than the Nomad Energy CANON. It can be a bit more tricky to find, however. If you only use the canons, try the blasters. I have two nomad blasters, two diamondbacks and tskyblast Bs, if your'e interested...
