' Wrote:A Blood dragon looking fighter with black colour instead, man thats something awesome looking thing I wanna fly.
no black.
Dragon ships have a red tint to the hull, and a dark purple/black color on the 'fins'.
Black hull color is reserved for the hogosha :P
Quote:Black Dragon is not enough for you?
It's great for a VHF... but that still leaves us without a flagship/gunboat, or a bomber. I'm not so concerned about light fighters but I'd really rather not be stuck using even the 'new and improved' pregnant eagle for our bomber. Hogosha are kusari nationalists, they would be much more likely to use a kusari-designed ship than something foreign.

Ehhh... NO
Wyrm with 600ms Sunfrenzys is kind of average LF overall better than Wyrm With Daitos (750 synchronized with debilitators ) will be great to awesome LF
I fly both the Wyrm with Sunfrenzys and Liberator with Vengeances(750 as well). Liberator is smaller and turns faster (strafes the same), but the guns are even more decisive.
No Dragon ship has more armor than Kusari counterpart. Usually they have less armor and powersupply but more agility.
No LF in game has bigger powersupply than others.
Igiss says: Martin, you give them a finger, they bite off your arm.
Ask Jinx politely, her Kusari models are all very nice.

I think it can be settled with one ship only. I agree that Civi bomber isn't too nice for Kusarian factions.
Maybe one generic Kusari bomber, for all of 'em? I think that could work.
It would be weaker and different then Catamarans.
Also, Hogosha has no need of a GB, FA neither. There is a generic Kusari GB that can be used by both. Kusari explorer.
And one more a bit 'generic', IMG GB. No need for another one.

hm - can t we "simply" dye the whole mat file of the wyrm slightly red and copy paste the ini and model?
like i said - an identical version is OK with a BD fixed ID card. - but once the BDs are asking for "give it more agility and we ll give up some armour" - or in short, once bickering about stats starts - it gets a "no" from me.
i don t have good experiences with all the BD ships. - almost none of the ones i have been fighting adhered to BD weapons - all of them used a wide array or krakens, infernos and whatnot - and then i consider them a bit too powerful - they are fine as long as they stick to BD stuff *only*.
so while i agree that a BD wyrm "should" be more agile and less armoured, i simply do not trust the BD factions ( no matter if official or non - factioned ) to stick to their faction weapons - and so, such a powerful LF would be too much.
besides, the wyrm is good enough as it is. - about the modification - i don t know how to extract the mat file from the vanilla ships - but someone that does know it could prolly simply upload it in photoshop and create a new .dds that is slightly more red.
Sorry, but the explorer sucks, and I'm rather against using anything related to the GMG as a hogosha character.
Anyways... a single generic-ish bomber would work well for all three groups I think. The KNF gets all pissed at anyone else using the catamaran, while the dragons (and GC to an extent) have the red catamaran which is even better. It's a bit frustrating to be stuck using the pregnant eagle if we want a bomber.
Perhaps the red catamaran's infocard should just make it both GC and Blood Dragon, and then only one ship needs to be added for Hogosha/FA to balance it out. Then all sides have a bomber of their own.
I still think we should have an alternative to the explorer for a gunboat though. Perhaps a "Kusari Pirate Gunship", aka an equivalent to the rheinland pirate cruiser (though gunboat level instead of cruiser level). It could be listed as built by samura but sold to several private groups within kusari, rarely including the golden chrysanthemums. Blood Dragons would still have their gunboat unique to them, but this would give something that the GC/FA/Hogosha could use.
