Title: Weapons in Operation Templar
Post by: Solatar on November 08, 2010, 08:01:43 pm

So, I'm not automatically disagreeing with it, but why isn't the Avenger allowed for the ported version of Operation Templar?  It seems unlikely they'd phase it out at least until the introduction of the Subach.

because it was not supplied with the retail version

The point of the ported version was to use FS1 era weapons.  I understand the Prometheus R being included in both (for obvious reasons), but I don't quite understand the argument for leaving out the Avenger.  Surely it would have still been in use at this point (it wasn't really 'replaced' until the Subach).

Because if we had included the Avenger, you wouldn't use anything else (especially not the Prometheus R.)

Noone uses the Prom-R anyway...

Fair enough, honestly.  I wasn't looking for a world changing reason, this works for me.  :)

I use the Prom R with the S-Breaker in one or two missions where I don't want to fly a Valk or Herc.
