Both ships have good stats:

Eagle CTE-6000 Very Heavy Fighter 9900 550 6/1 8/10
Falcon CTE-3000 Heavy Fighter 6200 550 5/1 6/8

And cost a bundle. What do you mean "I wouldn't mess with them" ?



I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the darkness at Tan Hauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain. Time to die.

Oh yeah EB, well get some Titans with lvl10 shields, and some GMG Skyblast B's

they make a damage of 244 and have a refire of 8.33, they kill a stiletto in about 1and a half second.

Im gonna be cheap and buy a bloodhound for my first ship, unless istart with something. What is the starting ship?

Post Sun Feb 09, 2003 4:58 am

Probably a Humpback or Rhino for my ship now. I want something that looks utilitarian.



EB: taht is the weirdest url ever. Check the code and fix it up, man.

Starting ship is Starfiler, I personally wouldn't bother with the Bloodhound, get a Dagger instead if you want to go that route.

I like the look of the border world heavy fighter..so I might just go with that.

@ EB, you just loot them off the GMG's you kill in Omicron beta where you do jobs for the outcasts

I think when I start playing the game I'm going to try and purchase the Anubis. It may not have the best armor but everything else about it is great. The comments I read about it make that ship sound really bad ass. Plus, I'm a Zone of the Enders fan and the chance to pilot a ship with the same name as one of my favorite mechs is a chance I won't miss.

@EB and MD:

Strenght isn't everything you know. I prefer the more 'maneuverable' ships. For instance, in SL I'd choose the Shroud before the Wolverine (because of the maneuverability and cloaking). Of course you can all have your own opinions, but I just felt like saying this, because MD said things like "Are you all mad? go for the titan or the sabre they are the strongest right? I'm gonna get some of those and blast you all to pieces" I just try to shed light on both sides.

I agree Eraser. While everyone is entitled to, and should be respected for, their own opinion, I believe that far too many people place an emphasis on strength. I like to pilot a ship that can escape a cross-fire rather easily. I don't care how powerful your ship is. Be it taking or giving damage. It won't last long amongst a cluster of far more maneuverable ships.

Well eraser you'll find out in an early stage when you are flying your starflier and i come along, i have enoung strength in those guns to kill you in 1/8 of a second.

To be honest flying a titan feels like you are driving a bus, the sabre on the other hand is much more agile and has the advantage of a forward facing turret (so you have 7 guns instead of 6) though its armor is a little less and the amount of nanos and armor as well
