Junker Gunboat - RingoW - 09-26-2008
Seems i have hit the weak point here, but remind the 4 steps of communication.
1. Listen : the parts of Sirius, Junkers are supposed to travel
2. Understand: Does not mean its forbidden for Junkers to go where they want, at least not by me.
3. Think : I can't do it for you, but this would be mine. "Hm, do i want a Junker Gunboat for the sake of rp or only to pawn the bugger, which annoy me.
4. Speak: Well, since you have failed at step 2, i have no clue. :P
AoM
ps: i like the model, but i don't like folks which force others to make such vessels uber, so they can abuse it.

Second of all I never asked it to be uber. I just asked it to be similar to the other gunboats in the game. I guess that is too much to ask. Back to the scrap fields Junkers.
Edit: If Junkers want to pwn in a gunboat they already have the corsair gunboat. What I would like to see is a gunboat for Junkers by a Junker and thats what we have. 6 gunboat turrests just like most of the others nothing special, better or worse than anyone else.

8 turrets. It can only train 4 at a given target, so really you're talking about a more expensive loadout for no benefit, so it's nerfed already. Also, the turret strength can be diminished with lower level turrets rather than fewer of them. Frankly I think it fits Junker mentality to cover your ship in equipment as a deterant rather than rely on actual fighting ability. The "Hey, look how much stuff I got, I'm tough!" approach, rather than actually having to fight.
I understand the need for Junker ships to be stronger. They are trying to push into new areas of operation and new kinds of political and other activities, so having a ship like this available is a good idea; just make it none to common.

So maybe someone can give me a hint, how to upset business partners.

Esay be very transparent and shoot folks alot. Thats what I do.:P Also doing missions can effect some folks and staying quite while more of a Junker RP is less fun for most as we are here to interact. Other than that I dont know. Maybe you have something to teach folks.

My vote: Two turrets and a crapton of hull. Maybe some cargo space too... Think of it as an ultra-secure recovery and transport ship for military-grade hardware and ships found in the fields.

I say we go with four turrets, all around firing arcs. At most, five forward firing turrets. Apart from that, it looks nice.

I'm not sure it fits, something more around salvage frigate lines would be better.. I can come up with stats thou
4 turrets 1000 or so cargo, regular gb hitpoints, depending on it's size. In all ways worst GB around except in cargo and perhaps armor.
Todos: Change the textures a bit, make it rusty, I think it could be a Junker transport, rather than a gunboat with that shape thou...
