That Big Bretonian Love Brick

[Hidamari]

Kusari destroyer is a blind chicken to kill. You can do this even with werewolf. Most people who saying it's overpowered never ever flown one since miss to mention th fact that it can't fire backwards.

watch this fight i fraps'd between KNF and BAF Cruisers,

the thing is so manoueverable it doesnt need to shoot backwards.

Nothing. It is already a killing machine, atleast against transports.

[Lunaphase]

Any heavy gb is.

The problem is that its litterally the size of the enemys cruiser, which has much more sheild and armor and firepower. Best idea, would be either to make it a frigate, or Give it 3 main guns, to be like it was MEANT to be.

defidantly need a new gunboat! the bret's gunboat is all well and good but its very inconsistant that their gunboat is larger than the kusaian dessie, we need a gunboat for the brets that watches its weight!

DONT FORGET: we still want to keep the old one

Im ALL for more variety in Discovery. We already have it to some point. For Example, the Zoners have 2 classes of Battleship and 2 classes of cruiser. I believe every faction sholud be like this.

Liberty has the Liberty Assault Carrier, and the LABC. Kusari has ... not much in the scope of caps. Neither does Rhienland or Bretonia.

Let's make something unique and make a faction with 2 gunboat classes.

It should happen anyways. I mean the contrasts between the houses are really odd.

Kusari BS. Class - Heavy. 18 Turrets.
Bretonia BS Class - Medium. 14 Turrets.
Kusari Destroyer: Light.
Bretonia Destroyer: Heavy- 12? turrets.
Kusari Gunboat: Light -5 turrets 1 forward gun
Bretonia Gunboat: Heavy-7 turrets, 1 forward gun.
Bretonia Bomber: Large/Heavy
Kusari Bomber Light/Small

I mean why would these opposing armies do this. Wouldnt they want to match their opponent?
This is why there needs to be a Bretonian Drednaught, a Bretonian Light Gunboat and a Bretonia Light Cruiser. It would add more variety and make discovery better as a whole.

Just like the Bounty Hunters?

Yes, lets make every faction exactly the same.

I don't think we need any new ships. The Kusari Gunboat and Destroyer are causing a number of problems, rather than trying to treat the symptoms, why don't we just fix the problem? I'd be happy to do all the work in up-scaling the Kusari Dessie and Gunboat, scaling, hardpointing and stuff.

I just wonder how kusari dessie is overpowered then it can he smacked by single bomber 1 on 1 without any losses.

Alright I admit it walks on the edge. Having huge drawback in one place while having huge advantage in other. But srsly it doesn't need a nerf. Talking about bret gb.. it could use a buff.

Damn stop nerfing everything which is cooler then you.


about textures, I remember Mjolnir saying this once. I fear totaly about the same subject.

No need for a new Bret gunship.
Just give more armor, energy, and let's say 2x class9 guns more.

Not everything Mjolnir says is correct; Surprise!

If you want me to prove it, I can upscale a Liberator by 100 and the textures will still be mapped correctly.

Make a Bretonian Gunship to act as an anti fighter vessel.

I do not really know how to do that with current size.

At the same time I don't think adding a different "gunship" is a good idea. For the same reasons which I wrote in the other thread.... factions should keep their character.


Bretonian GB is the best GB against GBs as well as transports. At the same time it's still a gunboat so it can't get much more armor/shield/powercore because among other things it can "pirate" (like QCP do).

There is still some room for a bit more armor/bats/bots, but not much.

What I thought about doing is significantly improving the forward gun (range, speed etc), so that it's something half-way between Liberty GB forward gun and Liberty Cruiser forward gun.

This will make it good vs BS (with say 2.5k range on the gun) and a bit more useful vs cruisers, while against Gunboats it will stay about the same and against normal sized transports (not Ctrans) as well.
