A question about weapons. - Trias - 08-06-2007

To put it simple, I'm looking for the most kickass turrets that a Large Train can have in the discovery mod.
It might sound very useless, although I did notice that depending on your firepower, hostile NPC pirates engage less, wich is good enough for me.
That and I just like pimping my ships.
Regardless, I can't find any kind of weapon list.
Oh, and while we're busy, what would be the strongest shield for a Large Train?

Any leads?
And, I did post this in the right forum, right?

Well, I won't tell you where to find it, but the if you want "kickass" turrets on a transport, you want the container transport. 12 fighter turrets.

Your best bet for a train is a couple lvl 5 fighter turrets, but don't expect to be able to kill much with them.

Is the 100 extra cargo of the train really worth it, then? How do both crafts compare in driving?

The L-Train is smaller and can get thru asteroids easier, The CT is very big but has very good firepower. Take your pick.

Also, the CT tends to get disrupted much more frequently.

Heh how much money you got? I'm a frivolous spender so I am working on putting marsflyer side turrets on my C-Trans.

Usually anything with a high refire rate is good. Don't worry about energy use, and transport can handle it.

I used the morality of: Saftey First, and have chosen to go with a C-Trans instead.
Now I just need to find the right turrets.

::Edit::

I found someone driving a C-Trans, it looks hideous...Train it is, I guess I'll stick with running rather then shooting.
Howmany of you sucessfully killed pirates with a C-Trans?

I used to have a CT but ive left now, and im not going to say where the turrets are. There is a reason why its called "Discovery" so you can discover things for yourself.

A C-Trans is admittedly hard to kill for a single pirate in a fighter, but skilled ones can pull it off. 2 pirates in fighters or a skilled gunboat pilot will take a C-trans without too much of a fight. Numbers always work best. The C-Trans 12 guns are only as good as its pilots aim. Though they may be slow the transport only turrets still pack a punch. Tran Turrets are low on firepower but high on accuracy. Level 5 fighter turret will hurt but require more effort to score hits + you need your target to be uncomfortably close (Ie. in the pirates weapons range)

Alright, I've got almost everything I wanted for my character now, just a final question: Is there a transport turret level 5 or above?
I've recently found level 4.
