Why does it have to have a forward gun?


Apart from that it looks good.

If it's to have a forward gun - let it be an equivalent of a GB inferno - Something to replace normal inferno turrets.

However, it should not have more than 4 regular weapon slots aside from this.

Apart from that - the model is excellent. Most I like the common vision to the new battleship and the BW ship line.

Looks great eppy, nice job. Hope to fly it in 4.85

It shouldn't be stronger then the Lunchbox, in any way.
It's a nice model, don't get me wrong.
But Corsairs DO need to have at least one ship stronger then the Outcasts.
And Lunchbox has it's tradition.

I think, 6 guns, and a 0.6 agility (by FLstat, dunno about other programs).
No need for a forward gun, as i saw only House gunboats have forward guns.
Pirates shouldn't have it.
But, maybe i'm wrong on this one?

Think the BH Orca Gunboat has a forward gun, but I could be mistaken.

If it only has 6 turrets, then it should otherwise be about equal in maneuverability and armor to the Rogue Gunboat.

Unfortunately the vertacle fins are screaming CORSAIR to me........:(

I like it, but it looks like a miniature cruiser or something though...

I'll wait for a texture and skin before giving more input, but so far it's really nice.

I suppose it does look a bit like a Corsair ship with the vertical fins, but the thing about Corsair fins is that they're always slightly curved. This thing is all angles, and try putting a connecting fin between some of them, like on the Saber. You can see the design there. As for the guns, I want something on equal terms with the Corsair Gunboat. Either Six and a Forward or Eight even. Remember, you Corsair types outnumber us three to one, so we need to exploit the Outcast technological advantage (yes, we have one, believe it or not). Considering almost every Corsair player has a Gunboat, they can field about ten of them on us on five minute's notice. We need something to combat that. The forward cross-section looks low, but the reason I put all those funky vertical fins on there was so it could have a taller hitbox, thus reducing the advantage to something manageable, not too overpowered, sort of like the IMG gunboat (not too much firepower but a real pig to hit).

Also, the Outcasts are the only pirate faction that really qualify for a forward gun. Remember, we designed the Inferno, a unique Battleship Heavy Weapon, and we designed the Blood Dragon Cruiser, which features a MASSIVE forward gun. In fact, we're basically the only illegals you can come to for Big Gun tech (all the Razorz and Mortars are Order guns, so not illegal or legal; they're a continuum unto themselves)

Pure propaganda!

Hhhm if its going to be around the same size as the Corsair lunch box I don't mind, but if its going to be the size of the IMG gunboat with 8 guns or 6 and a forward gun then thats a big no no in my book.

But remember the Corsair gunboat is big for a gunboat, the reason it has 8 guns is to compensate for its size and agility or lack of.

Also most people in TBH/Benitez fly Titans 90% of the time, I also wish I could summon up 10 Lunch boxs in 5 minutes.:P
