Speaking of blind spots, reminds me of the damn obvious one on the very front nose of fenrises and leviathens. When you park you fighter there, you won't be touched.

After that you can unload on the cruiser :lol:
None of it's weapons will hit you there.

Shivan ships are difficult to think about. I mean it's not hard to get close to them with any fighters or bombers. But which shivan vessel had the best antifighter array anyway?
My best guess for which shivan vessel has the best antifighter array would be the moloch. Simply because the moloch is the shivan vessel that actually manages to keep me away the longest. Not to mention the moloch has flak turrets in very unsuspecting places, after that shivan laser turrets have a lot more variation with speed and power than tv laser turrets do.
After that who can recall a lilith or cain keeping you away...actually scratch that. I believe the shivan asmodeus does a better job at keeping me away if i do a one on one with it than any other shivan vessel :lol:

None of the shivan ships are particularly good at anti-fighter, though the Cain has a well-placed S-AAA that can cover the full 180 degrees below it.
The Moloch, while it has some good AF weapons, nonetheless has a layout that allows only one or two of them to fire at any one target, making it ineffective at best.
And literally all of the big Shivan capships are virtually helpless against fighters and bombers due to massive gaps and blind spots in their defenses.

I put the Aeolus.  For some reason, the Sobek and Deimos don't seem to bother me too much, but whenever I see an Aeolus, I try to keep my distance. :lol:  It has some pretty good Anti-Fighter beams, and it has by far the most deadly flak barrage in the game.

The Deimos-class corvette is the only corvette that stays true to its class. Corvette. Corvettes are supposed to be anti-fighter, but capable of handing itself against an equal class ship or around 3 - 4 cruisers. Contrary to what someone said earlier, you can get your asymptote handed to you from the front of that Corvette. Looking at the front (which, btw, is where the strongest beams are) you notice two beam turrets ready to blast you into free floating hydrogen. And the Deimos just looks cool.

I've never really liked the Deimos...it's too dark for my taste. Shivan ships are supposed to be dark, Terran ships are bright.

So for pure sexiness, yes, the Aeolus wins.

Are you running the SCP patch? If you are, all you have to do is select it, press / then . (or whatever you've configured those options to), scroll around until you see the paint reflecting off of the sun... And all ships are dark in space. Shivan ships are just painted black and red. The Deimos is a pretty green and silver

You could've been on Hard Light for a long time and never downloaded the SCP :doubt:
