a REQUIREMENT for The Sehkmet (future Order Bomber) to be a good ship

[Jinx]

new bombers are rather weaker in the anti-fighter department. - like the FA bomber that has 2xlvl10 guns and 2xlvl5 turrets "only" - keep in mind... a bomber is build to fight those large ships with its torpedo mounted heavy weapon. - the guns are only there to fend off fighters.... not really to destroy them.

but if you wish, we can give the order bomber 4xlvl5 turrets .... instead of 4xlvl10 guns. ( of course, we d limit the turrets movement so they only have the usual 45 degrees arc forward ... like the guns )

The Sekhmet already has 5 forward firing guns. That's the outer limit for bomber weaponry. The fifth gun is a turret, though. 7 guns would be overkill and more turrets... Just naaaah. Fighter turrets are doomed to fail against proper guns.

The answer?, is a ...BANHAMMER.

NO, I will smack you so hard...



*edit:* by the way, Jinx, is that the new Viper (or Arrow?) in your signature for "Clover Tate"?
If so, it looks great ^.^

ah, no - thats a gaian gunboat.... i just did some fortune telling about what my chars will fly in (....).

now that we know that the order bomber will get 4 guns and 1 turret, its on the more damaging side of all bombers - a feature that makes it a comparable opponent to the nomad bomber ( that has less guns but much more powerful weapons ) and the BHG bomber that has one more gun instead of a turret - but a larger size.

things look OK.

Fair enough...
*deleted message* pointless, and was flaming a member of the community who I don't know.
and the message itself seems to have drawn flame right back at me...

hm, when i am counting stats of the bomber that you typed, and when i use your argument, that order has too much enemies, then nomad light fighter need cruiser shield and 25 class 10 gun slots, bomber need powerplant from battleship and 25 torpedo slots, etc etc etc, and wilds need to have on their ships battleship shields... because nomads and wilds have all humans against then and most of the enemies are using capital ships...
is this what you mean??????

and about this:

hm.. however, the idiot ship builder whom Hardpointed the Praetorian "Balanced" the *turret* shieldbusters right to the point of useless-ness perhaps The Praetorian should move the Turrets to forward Arc? (even if for balancing reasons it costs it even having one of the two Hardpoints?)

take a big care about who you are typing and what you are typing!!!!!

when you are so good and so big hero, then make your own ships,,,, and praetorian is good as it is... why i know lot of people that can using it with 4 coladas ????? or you want bombed with 6 forward firing guns? for what????then you need to complete rebalance fighters to be more agile to compensate more firepower of bombers, then you need to rebalacne gb, as their primary target is to defend bigger ships agaisnt bobmers, then you need rebalance everything....

DeiSol, I forbid you to trash talk like that members of this community who has worked hard on this mod whereas all you know to do is whine and complains.
This is not going well for someone who wished to clear up his recent childish attitude.

I believe that would be Angel of Mercy. Though now that I think of it, Igiss himself MIGHT have done some edits to the ship aswell.

Also, would you like a whamburger, or perhaps some frenchcries to go with that whine?
