Title: Sabre or Saber?
Post by: TrashMan on August 26, 2007, 08:33:46 am
Going over various missions done foir FOW3 and making nameplates for the said ships, I saw that a single ship has been given a different name in various missions...

Given that I'm conpletely unable to decide which one is better I'll leave the choice up to you folks:

GTBC Sabre or GTBC Saber?  :p

Sabre. Cause the word looks cool, and there is a really cool ship in wing commander 2 with the same name.

And yes. It uses normal english instead of american english :P

Of those two, I'd use Sabre simply because it's British spelling and I prefer to use that, but in general I'd go for the Shamshir instead. Just for the "and now for something completely different" factor, if nothing else. :p

Although... was the F-86 called "Sabre" in US despite the general spelling difference? Strange. :nervous:

STANDARD WEAPONS:

 - multip part -
2 Terran Medium Turrets (double barreled)
1 AAAf turret (double barrleed)
4 Standard Flak (double barreled)
- normal -
1 standard AAAf
12 Terran turrets
1 MGreen
2 S Green


The upgaraded version has different weapn config.
Mainly TAC turrets (similar to the long range turretss in PI) instead of Terran Medium turrets, and as of yet undediced number of other weapon replacements.
Probably I'll replace flaks wiht Gat Turrets and a few Terran Turrets with more AAAf

Steadfast's Orc has standard armament...expect for two missile launchers armed with Burst Missiles. And there's mo need of explanations ;7

And, of course, that ship isn't going to be your friend  ;7 ;7

(By the way, i'm still waiting for the final version of the Super-Orc...)

Back on topic, i vote Sabre.
