Level 30 limit and battleships

[Fellow Hoodlum]

Why does everyone put down the idea of fighter groups, the GoR have had one for months, infact for a long
time thats all we used ... Sabres. Infact we still do. Even though its got probably one of the worst manouverability
records here now. Thats RP ... Its the only fighter the Outcasts have to use. I'm afraid we have also got one
or two cruisers now, as you guessed it ... Fewer people come up to Alpha, flying fighters. With one or two
notable exceptions I hasten to add. Add one BS as a flagship, rarely used. No gunboat on offer ...
We don't have an imported LF or HF to use, just a couple more vanilla ships in the arsenal. What do we do,
use something technically not available to us in the lighter groups ?
The VHF is still the king, and I hope it stays that way. Though for most others there are plenty of options in
the 'lower' classes, if well flown can more than hold their own against anything. Maybe the fact that there are
some effin' mean NPCs around now, makes people go for the armour option. Plenty of upgrades to those guys
recently. Lots of bott and batt usage required now if you want to go mix it with especially The Wild (level 15
my ass). Go have a play with six of them and tell me its a breeze.
Even the standard Bounty Hunters are getting meaner by the second. Destroyers in just a fighter, ok if you
have all day. If they get any tougher, we will have a call to back em off a touch from some elements.
I think I must be playing a different mod then ...
Capship arguments we have done to death now, and things are changing I hope.
Rad damage in Kepler and Gallileo ... Pah, stick your nose into 82 if you dare. 500k and you got off lightly, if
your loadout includes one of those torp mounted nasties. And I live there ...
Ship 'choice' is just that, depends on how you view your RP, and how the play dictates ...
Lets not bemoan the death of something that's alive and kicking still.

There must be a change in starting rep then if you can swan off to Theta with a starflier, without a bribe ...
Don't make it sound easy, if you get it wrong, its instant death ... What, no Nomads ? Or did you take the
trade lane orientated option ?
