I just feel that the thruster would make it more viable as the Jump-Liner it's meant to be.

That's right, yes. Imagine Cultist carriers with thruster :O

Ah heck, okay maybe don't give thrusters to Bustards.

If Bustard really needs a thruster then go for it. Thruster is an equipment that can be unmounted. But Cultist carriers with thruster would make them more terrible. Funny. And anyway I didn't see Cultist carriers since a while. So this will not have a great impact.

If I may bring your attention to a comparison of a battleship compared to a Bustard:

And to what the game says in the Ship Dealer:

It seems to me, that technically it is a Liner by the rules. Yes, infocard says "Carrier". If it's a "carrier", at least give it 90m/s impulse speed.
Seriously, do it either way for God's sake.
i voted "yes"

I agree for the 90m/s impulse speed at least.
Lel is past the time of giving Bustards decent defensive weapondry....

No thrusters, make it a carrier for Jesus sake... is the only jd4 i can have as Kruger and now i cant cloak and jump anymore (thanks for that, btw) So make it at least capable of defending for some time....

Or at the very least, what Sasa said:

Corection :

CARRIER core and ONE Battleship secundary, rests are Cruiser Secundary.

As for my opinion of Bustard :

Considering it was last modified while BattleCruisers speciific weapons still dint existed , with Battleship slot intendend to use flak , i think it is time to Bustard recives all BattleCruisers (light) slots .
Also , since have terible arcs, where only half of them fire backwards ,it needs either arc buf ir number buf .
Also, since it has (at least) BattleCruiser size and Hull, so needs Thruster , like rest of them.
how about have an escort for your civilian carrier

it's not a military ship

give it military stats and houses will start treating it as a foreign warship, with all the restrictions involved
The thing needs a damn price decrease. It's extortionate right now.
