i'm gonna go with the vaccum cleaner. it looks scary, which helps, and it's got some nice beams on it.

ummm...no true. the terrans had caputured several shivan ships, such as the Taranis, that transport from the hall fight cutscene, the dragon you get to fly, and some maras in FS2. And those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

I thought the maras were Terran built, not captured...

[Carl]

nope. captured.

[silverwolf]

yah if i remember it says they were captured in the command briefing. even if you didn't capture them in hte mission. so i believe mara(terran) means they are modified for terran use. because well they would have to be

[Kie99]

Yeah and the Maras handle better than the original,(or so the briefing says i haven't checked the tables)
By the way the Orion is my favourite ship ever on looks and I am soon going to be developing a Mod to give it enough tureets to compete with a Hades

[Carl]

you'll have to quadruple it's hitpoints, too.

[Kie99]

Depnds how many turrets i add, i'm thinking about 500 bFRED turrets... LOL

[c914]

someone had create Orion with more turrets.
I think that hitpoints of evry destroyer should be just like Demons had. Its funny tahat Deimos had 20 000  less strength.

Was that the one by Promethius that had a Deimos reskin?
