The Horus. I'm talking looks here. I mean, look at it, it's the freaking Lamborghini of Freespace! And the Seth, obviously a Porsche. And the Mentu. Not something I'd be on in wartime, but cruising around in my own personal Mentu space yatch? Oh yeah. The vasudans may be butt-ugly, but they are true masters of compensation :D

That's the one. I think it's in the Aincents Pack.

The Horus is a classic 'innit ?

A Mentu as a yacht? :cool:
Not a bad idea.

The Artemis is crap.  It has no weapon energy to speak of.

I don't know about you, but the Seth does seem to own in furballs.

That's absolutely not true. It has weapon energy, just not much. :)
See it from the nice side: It can fire more rapidly than any fighters with 4 primaries except for the Thoth.

You can't hit **** with the Artemis. The guns are far too far apart.

Athena, Ursa, Ares and Erinyes. Or Valkyrie.
Pick one and own them all...
Especially with the great lighting bomber ;)

I also liked the Athena. Its only setback that it becomes obsolete when the Tsunami appears. And it becomes even more obsolete when the Medusa is developed.

The Artemis has fine energy for its job (strafing runs on a capship, not dogfighting) and It is the only bomber I can fly with ease because others are so slow.



                      Both Hercs suck!
