That Bretonia Gunboat...Screens!

I realize that screens may already be posted up of this, but...

I ran into this guy in Cambridge near the Omega-3 jump gate. AFter catching a glimpse, I entered formation with it to get a better look. I took screens of it from several angles and of its weaponry and cargo. It wasn't carrying any bots, bats, shields (duh), or thrusters.

yeah we know the Bretonia gunboat exists but I've never seen it outside of the a mod. Sort of like the Kusari gunboat and destroyer I have never seen them in unmodded versions.

This ain't a mod I'm posting screens of...this is good old pure Freelancer 1.0. I just thought I'd post up some screens of the gunboat so people who have never seen it could have a chance to.

why is this so amazing?ive seen bretonia and kusari gunboats in Tau systems
though they are not very effective (they fled from the outcasts attacking me :-)

What is so strange in bretonian gunboats? They are nothing unusual - so, where is the point of this thread

It looks pretty cool..

Too bad it sucks.

The Class 4 Bretonnian Skyrails are better than those guns

Yeah, I saw one in a tangle with Mollies outside Battleship York. Have you every seen a battleship's main guns fire at a fighter? The projectile is enormous.

They don't need em; the Patriots are hard enough to handle as it is.

Well, so there is! But why is it shooting at a Bounty Hunter?

I just noticed one of these the other day when docking with a battleship it was hovering around. It is kind of cool looking but the gun power as you display it sucks. Perhaps someone could make a 1/2 sized one (You know... export it, resize it in some 3d program and re-import it with a new name and ids_name and so forth...) and then we could equip it like a fighter with good weapons and make it dock with planets and such. It might be nice to fly one around for a while. I still say a well equipped brick shaped ship would be best. It has the most internal room and has the most exterior space to mount weapons and you don't need wings in space!
