Especially its suitability as long-range weapon makes it to a pretty cool toy. Timing is the key when using the pulse/razors combo against snubs and patience when facing caps. It might take a while to disable a battleship, but it is possible.
  
But, if you step on a pack of smaller opponents, you can leave that place alive. Small ships will attack you from all directions, so you should run like hell. Use turret view, or kill engines and turn back - it depends of your stile. Four cannons (of six) will fire in almost any direction. When you start shooting back with Rheinland Secondary Guns, fighters will be surprised. Strong Rheinland missiles will give them more surprises, as it insta-kills shields at all VHF and most bombers. When you take down bombers from pack, others will go home. Ah, yes... Capital Armor Upgrade Mk VIII will help you with that bombers, giving you 540.000 hull points total...}}

My conclusion: A well handled Oder can be a real nightmare. Its agility might be a problem when fighting other gunboats and reaches its limits when it comes to clashes with light gunboats. In this case, the "hit and run" tactic is the best option you have. Due to its strong powercore, it could also need one turret slot more. I recommend to use heavy turrets instead of light ones.

Review (4.88)

Somebody who knows how to use gunboats will definitely love this babe. With proper equipment and training, you will be able to take out almost everything. I've already been ganked by swarms of snubs many times, but could always rip apart some of my opponents in a surprise turn, especially when they flew directly into my arcs - A huge mistake. Hopeless situations often took a surprising turn from one moment to another.

Important is, you realize the Oder's limits and capabilities and adapt your weapon setup accordingly. The Oder's powercore is strong enough to fire three razors at once. Personally i prefer gunboats equipped with long-range weapons. To unfold its destructive force and make it capable to defy snubs and caps, i suggest to use a loadout of three cerberus, one pulse and two razor turrets. I can only recommend to make use of your forward gun. It is definitely worth the effort. Make sure you can fire pulse and razors forward and behind. Due to the Oder's relative flat shape, your loadout will be an huge advantage in combat. Your flanks however, are less effective and a vulnerable point which shouldn't be turned into enemy fire to often.
