...what would it be.
I would either have a Perseus fighter or a Deimos corvette.
-
Sathanas.
-
Lucifer. Invulnerability is a wonderful thing, as long as I don't piss off someone powerful before a subspace jump.
-
If it was the base FS series, it would definately be a GVD Hasethput (god why can't I spell?).
If I can choose including Inferno, the SOCv Phobos Adv!
edit: fixed
-
Yup. Inferno too. And actually ANY costum ships, also.
But please include the ship type. ex: GTD Hecate
GVCv Sobek
(fg-frigate; Cv-corvette; Ca-carrier; Dn-dreadnought;T-transport; Fr-freighter; FI-intecepter )
-
Scarab. Then Nepthys.
Though, I'd like to fly an Aeshma, really. I don't want to fly a capship... that seems... wrong.
EDIT: Ooh other camps too?
MT - Chymera. Definately.
TVWP - PVF Hotep
If you absolutely must have us choose a capship, it's be a Sobek, and then a Typhon.
-
GTF Apollo and Alpha 1 as Pilot :D OWNAGE!
-
The Orion Block 3 (my Orion table-hack) GTD Soyakaze.
Runner-ups were the Tribal-class frigate (my Iceni table hack) GTFf Vandal (no fightercraft disqualification) and the Androgeos-class juggernaut AJ Minos (don't speak the langauge disqualification).
-
An orion class destroyer.
-
The GTD Cube.
-
GVCv Sobek
or a GVF Horus (love those things)
-
For fighters, definitely the Perseus. I love how fast the thing is and that it still has a decent missile compliment. Who needs countermeasures when you can evade anything thrown at you?
As for capships, I'd like to command either an Aeolus (every fighter pilot out there would curse my name) or a Deimos, since those things rule.
-
There can be only one ship to command....The Iceni! :drevil:
then the NTF Revolution will be under my control!! Mwhahahahahahahaha!!
-
From FS series it would be
- Pegasus
- Demon
Other stuff:
- Lindos from Inferno
- andy my Reyena corvette :D
-
GTF Apollo and Alpha 1 as Pilot :D OWNAGE!
Amen. :D
Yup, I'm still alive. Hehehe... :drevil:
-
Aeolus probably
-
That reminds me of X2:The Threat...
There you can buy an Armada... Destroyers, Corvettes, Fighters...
You can fly everything.... And you can dock your Fighters/Bombers in an bigger ship...
You can name your ships and you can switch to a ship that is docked into your capship...
Hey... Maybe something like this will be possible with Scripting :)
if keypressed("Y") then set-player-ship("Beta 3")...
Or something like this ;)
-
if keypressed("Y") then set-player-ship("Beta 3")...
Or something like this
Would that actually work?
*runs off to play around with FRED and try it
-
Sobek/Deimos, or (if you wanna innclude mods too) The TCS Concordia / TCS Tigers Claw from WCS......
Failing that a Drone from training.
-
Deimos corvette. For fighters, probably the Pegasus.
-
I'd like a Pegasus, Erinyes, and a Triton.
Pegasus = Some fast little car, I dunno what I could put...
Erinyes = BMW 7 (in blue. that deep dark blue.. yes...)
GTFR Triton to haul the Erinyes around so I dont wreck it.
-
Larger Ships:
Deimos (Must Have)
Aeolus
Orion
Fighters/Bombers:
Erinyes
Ursa
Apollo
-
I would have a GTD Boreas. I love that ship. Period. My location in my profile even states what it would be called. As far as fighters/bombers go, I'll take an Athena-class bomber or Aurora-class interceptor any day.
-
anubis
-
The GTD Orion, specifically the Galetea. I couldn't believe my eyes when it got destroyed by the Lucifer in FS1 :(.
-
Capital Ship:
Aoelus.
Fighter:
Pegasus.
-
A fleet of kamikaze cargo containers.
One second, they're sitting there docilely. The next, the entire squadron's down and the Cruiser is in flames.
Or maybe the NTF Iceni.
Edit: Oh, and if I did the cargo container thing? They'd all have ninja costumes. What better way to lure everyone in to get a closer look... :drevil:
-
Hm...what to chose?
A training drone...with kaysers and the SET_SHIP_INVULNERABLE SEXP!!!!
-
Volition Bravos
-
bah, just give me an aeolas. reasonably fast and pretty well defended from fighters and bombers. just stay away from enemey 'vettes and destroyers
-
Perseus
-
Heh, I like Falcon's Volition Bravos idea... only retrofitted with BFReds. It would be the best pirate ship... EVER.
-
have i ever mentioned my little pirate rant before?
in every game that has pirate the pirates seem to have better hardware than the military. if the outlaws controll everything then they are essentially the government with their own rules and whatnot, that would technically make the good guys (police, military, do gooder mercs) the pirates and therefor the bad guys. the guys with the most firepower are often the soverign nation and the ones who fall behind are supposed to get the label terrorist, pirate, and whatnot. people got it all bass akwards.
-
you mean back asswards?
-
ass backwards
-
hahaha bass akwards...nice :p
-
*Has a feeling that many HLP ppl would run off to join the shivan side if they ever returned*
*Shutters*
:D shame on you all.
Fighter: ARES
Terran Caps: Hecate, Deimos
Vasudan caps: Subek, HatShetSprut
-
Vasudan caps: Subek, HatShetSprut
Quoted to show that you, indeed, are a retard.
-
:lol:
dont let Goob see that
burnings all around

While Chairman Mao once stated that political power grows from the barrel of a gun, morality doesn't. A bunch of pirates are still a bunch of pirates when they're in charge. And just because the pirates are capable of overthrowing the government doesn't necessarily mean they will, either. Becoming the government is a lot of work. Better just to shoot random people without purpose.

Spelling hatshesput wrong is one thing, spelling sobek wrong is another...
mijlnir... that's the hardest one, am i right?

Finally, we have irrefutable proof that Charismatic is a retard. It's about time. :lol:
Spelling hatshesput wrong is one thing, spelling sobek wrong is another...
mijlnir... that's the hardest one, am i right?
Mjolnir really isn't hard to spell. :p
-
GTCv Deimos - capship
GTF Perseus or GTF Loki - fighter
GTB Ursa - bomber.
what can i say :D
-

mijlnir... that's the hardest one, am i right?
Mjolnir really isn't hard to spell. :p
Kinda hard for me... mostly hard to prounounce without hearing it thogh.
-
mm-yah-l-nurr
-
err.. i beleive it's
mil-neer
unless that's the sound you are trying to make into phonetics...
-
It's not milneer. it's 'Mmyahlnurr' Thor's hammer. They say it in game, do they not?
EDIT: The idiot in this says it funny. But he says Typhon funny, too, so whatever.

Godamit. Im getting picked on again. *Sigh*
The reason i got SOBEK wrong was cauze i named my car (my first car. The only one iv ever had.) Subek, after sobek, cauze in my mind it looks like it in some form. So i think subek alot.. sorry for the misspelling, dingle bells!
-
there are many variations of the norse language, reigonal dialects, and major splits each using slightly different spelling, so if you think a norse word is spelled wrong, its probibly not. i liked the way the languages looked before the characters were all latinized. ancient languages are cool.
-
Cap ship: Aeolus. They're awesome, if only they could actually hold their own against cap ships. :sigh:
Fighter: I dunno. Perseus? I also like the Myr's design. A tie between those two.
-
Soldat Leo Sobek! :D

And I will not go in to how many places you misspelled things in the post explaining why you misspelled something. And we all know that name-calling is the best way to resolve an argument :rolleyes:
-
Fighter: Erinyes, Ares, possibly a Perseus. O and of course my Ulysses.
Bomber: What else? Artemis D.H. w\ minor table hacks. HELLO HELIOS! Goodbye Pathetic maneuverability stats of Artemis O! (not that it wasn't awesome in the first place...)
Cruiser: Aeolus+BGreen+a little more armor=Complete and total Ownage
Corvette: Deimos of course. Actually, once its done, my next project, the GTCV Achilles.
Frigate: 3 Guesses, and it begins and ends with the same letter.
Destroyer: GTD Galatea, Rebuilt to kick some ass. Alternatively Typhon or GTD Sirona.
UBERship of OMFG We're gonna die! : The Big C, GTVA Colossus. Rip on it all you want, It could pwn all you little bastards. Until you brought in a damn Sathanas. Even then if it could fully utilize its fighter\bomber complement it could still probably pwn a couple Sathani before having to retreat for major repairs.
-
>>; uh...I do wonder why no one voted for the Valkyrie. n.n; It is a good figher in my book. Dual Banshees, I mean.
-
Fighter: Hercules Mark II
Bomber: Artemis Light Bomber (D.H.)
Corvette: Sobek
Cruiser: Apothesess
Destroyer: Not sure
Super Destroyer: EASD Nemesis!!! yeah dude..
Juggernaut: GTCa Warlock!!!! biggest ship ever!! (next to the giga, of course!!)
Super Juggernaut: theres only one, so what the heck; GIGA!!!
-
do you mean gigas? :wtf:
-
do you mean gigas? :wtf:
well have you played the Inferno campaign? if you have, then I'll explain it.
if not, then finish the campaign and you will see, my friend, what the giga is!!
-
Actually the name of the ship is Gigas with an 'S'
-
Vasudan caps: Subek, HatShetSprut
Quoted to show that you, indeed, are a retard.
you didnt already know that? ive known that for 4 years
-
x.x; Guys...no namecalling? Please?
Anyhoot> I already said the Valkyrie.
As Bomber...The Ursa. Sure, it looks like one big trashcan, but it gets the job done.
As support vessel (never plan on flying the cap ships): Either a Deimos, or an Aeolus. Beam cannons and FLAK. and small.
the Collossus COULD be good too, but it is so -ing large that you would have a hard time to protect it.
-
Fully operational GTD Hades. All of the perks of the Lucifer, while having it Terran designed ;)
-
Interesting thread, however, if the namecalling continues, it will be locked thread.
I'm sure we don't have to go there, hmmmm?
-
Hmm....forgot to add fighters last time around...why not?
Freespace 2:
I'd love to fly the Myrmidon any day when it comes to fighters. 6 primary banks to give it the same power punch as a herc, and the ability to carry Helioses against capital vessels.
Bombers: The Ursa. Slow, steady, reliable - and most importantly, comes with massive bomb bays filled with pure Helios pwnage.
Cruisers: A Leviathan. An Aeolus is significantly effective against most ships, but it doesnt last very long. A Leviathan on the other hand, can't dish out as much, but is very capable in taking the damage and surviving far, far longer than an Aeolus would.
Corvettes: The Iceni - nothing less. Although I dont really like teh shape, I prefer the aura of mystery that surrounds this tiny ship, and the secrets it may hold about the Shivan Enigma. Definate choice over the Deimos in my book.
Destroyers: GTG Zephrys. No way in hell your getting me to command a bit-fat-target-for-sathanas-or-ravana-cannons-destroyer. I'd rather just take a miner and sit somewhere safe, far from enemy lines, thank you.
From Inferno:
Fighters: Perseus Adv.
Cruisers: The Ticonderaga!
Corvettes: No preference...
Destroyers: The GTD Raynor. Because it is the very essence, in every sense of the word, of l337n3ss. Either that, or the fearsome Lindos.
Super-caps: The Nemesis.
-
Cap ship: I'm not sure, though a Leviathan with a bit lighter armor would rock.
Fighter: A wing of Perseus
-

A destroyer will alst far longer thatn a cruiser or a corvette.

sure, but sooner or later it will still be destroyed. A miner, now, thats a low priority target.
-

Until someone decides to disrupt supply lines. :p

yeah, but you tend to get escorts, and be far, far away from enemy lines. There's nothing more boring than being in a miner. yet at the same time, their's nothing further away from enemy front lines. Besides, if i *were* in a miner and decided to run away from enemy ships, I wouldn't be charged for AWOLing, since I was just protecting the GTVA's assets and important resource gathering units. ;)
-
What about when you would have to transport the mined gas to the ships serving at or near the front lines?

That's where political connections and sudden, conveniently inconvenient engine 'failiures' just before I have to leave to the front lines come into play. ;)
-

:lol:
How about surgical strikes on gas miners behind the front lines?
-
Let me put it this way Singh. Every single gas miner seen in FS2 was the target for one side or the other. :D Hell the Shivan ones even had a mission specifically about killing them :)
-

:lol:

Yeah. But if I run away, I still wont be charged for AWOL ;)
Oh - and every single gas miner we see had a DUMB pilot that didn't know the Buerecratic process, or of how orders are processed behind the scenes.
Remember - in logistics and the service side, it's not the commanders that have the REAL power even if they issue the orders, it's through the clerks and army of support staff that issue, process and then send out the orders. Having a clerk as a contact - especially one belonging to a very ignorant service side commander - can do wonders ;)
-
As I'm in love with X3 right now I take a Poseidon.
Yeah, I'm gonna trade commodities, get rich and build my own trade empire! :drevil:
You'll never get rich if you're a simple GTVA Pilot!
-
Yeah. But if I run away, I still wont be charged for AWOL ;)

Fine, your desertion has caused the complete collapse of the front lines allowing your gas miner to be ambushed by the comparatively well supplied hostile fleet while the nodes leading out of the system are blockaded. Can your flimsy gas miner escape that?
-

No, but when I kamikaze into an enemy ship, I can at least kamikaze with style ;)

-
Well, as for the Capships, definetly the Lillith. *Evil little bugger* :drevil:
My Fighter of choice would be....Perseus. It's sleek and all terran, 'nuff said ?
Bomber of mine is Nahema.
