Maybe I just got confused by ST:R.

As it should be.

Indeed, concur, most salubrious, wot wot.

[eliex]

Lonewolf never showed off it's reputation from Derelict in STR although perhaps they are not one and same?

[Commander Zane]

Terran fighters and bombers. I think I can hear people cringing over the Internet as they notice the Boanerges. Yes, it's the same Boanerges as in 2367. Yes, you will probably have to fly it I make this into a campaign:

Wait...why would I cringe?

[Narvi]

Because it's the worst new bomber in FS2. People hate flying it.

The worst is still the Zeus, but flying the Boanerges is like flying a rock with the structural strength of papier-mache.

Not sure basing a new mod on INFR1 is a good idea.

Well I fly everything using the Fast Mod so anything faster than an Ursa is a hell of a lot better to fly.

Flying around in the Apollo.


My absolute favorite ship in the entire franchise (Does anyone else have the six-gunned variant in their FSPort? )


Hammer of Light Aten with a Toth blazing its afterburner to begin pursuit of the GTA.


The LoneWolf and a wing of Valkyries.


It may be a mere Fenris but the Orff always makes me smile.


Let's get these shields out safely.

[Snail]

Some of the pics don't appear for me.

[Commander Zane]

I picked the wrong thingie. It's fixed now.

[Woolie Wool]

Not sure basing a new mod on INFR1 is a good idea.

It's not based on INF: R1. Several of the Terran fighters come from INF: R1, and INF: R1 is used as a baseline for balancing fighters, but otherwise there's not much of INF: R1 there.

In most missions, yeah, they both suck.  BUT, if you use the Zeus as a precision strike bomber it works really, really well.

Plus, in a Capship-rich mission with a couple of wings escorting you and only a pair of fighters to defend your targets (Warzone, anyone?), the Boanerges, yes, I'm gonna say it, is unbe-freaking-lievable. 

[Woolie Wool]

For Twist of Fate, since the altered timeline means the Loki's stealth works, I gimped the Zeus even more and made it a stealth bomber.

In most missions, yeah, they both suck.  BUT, if you use the Zeus as a precision strike bomber it works really, really well.

Isn't that what the Athena was for?

Uh nothx.
You forget the fact that the Boanerges is made of paper. ****, I got killed by a frakking sentry gun.
Then I took an Artemis and I kicked ass.

[Rhymes]

What kind of sentry gun? BTW, the Boanerges only works in certain kinds of missions, and I've only ever seen ONE pull it off right, and that ONE was in Warzone.  I do know that it is far too fragile for it's handling, but in Warzone mission 6, the Boanerges actually survives, and the ARTEMIS doesn't.  Don't believe me? Try that mission, on medium, in an Artemis, then in a Boanerges.  See which one survives.

[Woolie Wool]

GTF Eos
OphionTer

?

The GTF Eos' tables were loosely based on the Ophion's. I significantly downgraded them (and switched around the gun/missile points on the Ezechiel model) to match it's role as a mass-production space superiority fighter. I ddin't bother to change the short names because there's no real need to.

I beat the entire Warzone using the Artemis/Sekhmet for all bomber missions after dying to a SSG Belial in the first mission you're told to fly die in a Boanerges. Forgot what difficulty I was on, but I couldn't hit the damn things with the Boanerges's messed up gun positioning and facing.
But if it only works in one specific type of mission, then it's pretty fail already, isn't it?

But anyhow, let's get back to pretty pictures.

[Rhymes]

1) True enough

2) Amen!  More pictures please.

I can fly the Boanerges on that mission on Medium and it's still too easy...
Try it with Fast Mod however, you'll never make it.

[eliex]

If only the Boanerges primary gun positioning was a little bit better, I would consider flying it over the Artemis. Now, no contest.
