AP-385 "Orca" Bounty Hunter Gunboat

Template:Ship Infobox 2 The Orca is a recent development of the Bounty Hunters Guild. Replacing an outdated Gunship model, this gunboat was specially developed to act as an anti-fighter warship for operations that the Guild undertakes in remote and dangerous systems. Usually accompanied by several Hammerheads and Mantas, the Orca is a force to be reckoned with, feared even by the most experienced pilots of BHG's most hated enemies, the Outcasts and the Corsairs.

Handling

• This ship is too large to use docking bays, it must use mooring points.

Review without version number

Review This ship is well balanced and cost efficient, it offers a good powercore, strong hull and the much needed maneuverability. Equipped with a missile turret, razor and inferno (or perhaps a Cerberus turret) this ship has all the equipment it needs to do short work of rogue pirates. The Forward Turret shoots 5-10 degrees "below" the target in the standard ship or turret view. This is usually corrected by changing to first-person view. The ship's obvious flaw is that some turrets can't shoot under a specific angle backwards, thus diminishing the damage output. The other flaw is its shape and size, its fairly easy to hit, even with a stationary opponent using the turret view.
