That looks way cooler, but reminds me more of a super-oversized bomber than a GB.

I'd just use a modified Sabre's hitbox for this. the frame is generally the same, matter of lengtheneing it.

That's really what it is, isn't it? There are two kinds of Class Eight capital ships: Gunboats and Gunships. This falls into the latter category, truth be told; it's really a Super Heavy Fighter, which are really Gunships. It's about half again as long as the Rogue GB, maybe two to three times as wide. It will have six or seven guns, not eight. As for hitbox, well, let me take care of that:)I may have a few tricks up my sleeve.

if your going to have it as a gunship, stick to 6 guns. not 7. gunships are meant to be 'light gunboats' not ships with loads of armament, and agility as well.
also, i like the design, nice work. must say, tis better than the last one by a mile. >.>

Please make it a borderworlds gb, and not an outcast GB...it fits the borderworlds line better.
Also, what hitbox will it have?

It looks cool:)
But me won't fly it:DNor kill it either

Sabre hitbox won't work. Sabre isn't flat, this one is. There would be a huge gap.
Agreed with Frozen, if it's going to be a 'Gunship' - no more then 6 guns.
Also, you should make 2 forward firing only, and 4 with 360 degree.
Same like the Hacker GS.
In that case - a bit better agility then Rogue GB is fine. A bit less then Hacker GS though.
So, around 0.67 I'd say.
If you make a custom hitbox, can you please post it so we can see it?
I still think OC destroyer hitbox would fit just fine - but as you wish.

I think the design is too fighter-like to be a gunboat but the size is too big to be a gunship. Unless it has really good firepower, I can see us losing a lot of fights in that thing. We'd be dying in hella style though:P

It'll do it's job just fine, Dopa. Don't question. Eppy knows what he's doing. Look at the Orca; this is smaller than that, yet follows the same design principles.
EDIT: That is, of course, assuming Igiss doesn't decide to give it crap stats -.-
