ok...let's just say that if somebody was theoretically making a HLP campiagn that featured some of the members of the community, and you happened to be one of them, which type of freespace 2 or 1 ship would you want to be?

Personally, for me it'd have to be the Ursa! Big, slow and ugly is just like me - but with packing a big wallop and heavy on the armored side :D

I'd say a Herc 2. Cause it's, uh, blue. Sort of. And it comes after 1, but, get this, before 2. Wait, no. 3. It comes after 3. I mean before. Er...

A Sobek, apparently.


I'd have to say the Iceni, though. What with me being a tough little rogue and all.

[color=66ff00]Weird, I was thinking about this the other day, not so much in freespace terms but in general. Thought it would be cool if everyone had a fighter based on their own stats and we had a melee. :)

I'm light, I move fast in straight lines but not around corners and I can deal out a good deal of damage via kung fu. I also accellerate quite well but I can only run at high speed for short distances.

So basically a ship that has good top speed, a short afterburner,  not so maneuverable and moderately powerful but medium range armnament.

If we were doing it like that, I'd be an Interceptor packing Colossus-level weaponry, but unable to use it's IFF system.

FOR THE RECORD, the god damned TNT2 was the best videocard i had owned to date, (until i get a ATI x8000 or whatever the hell it is thats 300$).... the TNT2 can get specular hull glows and high res stuff but my radeon7500 cant do diddily squat with the effects made.

The version of the Cougar I put in Maelstrom. Fast as ****, completely uncontrollable but also completely impossible to track, and with rapid fire low yeild primaries.

I think that could translate into some sort of penis thing...

Seraphis- weak armour & shields, weak/medium weapons but fast and agile so I can kick an ass of those slow heavy fighters & bombers.
