Non-pilotable ships

Mon Feb 10, 2003 11:39 pm by Sarpedon

OK, we've all seen the ships that the player will be able to own and pilot. How many ships are there in the FL universe that are NOT pilotable by the player? I know capital ships aren't pilotable, but are there fighter ships which can't be piloted by the player?

most of the fighters are pilotable, though there are some ships, like the version of the defender juni flies, or gunboats or other ships (i don't want to spoil anything) that you can't fly.
and, there are superfreighters...(that you can't fly either)
then there are armored transports (at least i haven't found a base where you can buy them, and afaik they don't have shields)

can't think of more now...

Battleships are capital ships.

Armored Transports? Without shields? Kind of eliminates the point really

They might just have a really high hull rating coupled with guns & escorts could make it really tough for any would be foe.

BTW,Rubbereagle are the superfreighters you're talking about actually those Freight train look-alike transports ?

There are a lot of utility vehicles that you can't fly. Armored transports, supertransports, gunships, heavy lifters, mining ships, and so on. I think there might be SOME fighters you can't fly, but most you can find somewhere.
