Fly a Raven's Talon if you want style!

ok, its an orange blob, but a stylish one :D

well i do fly a ravens claw right now. or talon? - its some black thingy with triangular wings. looks neat; but it can t take much damage - compared to vhf or so. but i like the change to something thats moving a bit easier than a brick in molasse.

Yeah, but not only is the Marsflier overpowered but it's also really hard to RP.

The Raven's Talon, which you get at Planet Gran Canaria, looks pretty nice and is a well-balanced ship. Give it a try.

I still haven't found a favourite ship myself. I like the Templar and Nepthys because they have strong hulls, but the ship I'm using at the moment, the Kiith Somtaaw Heavy Fighter (which is mis-classified and should be classified as a VHF due to its stats) has great firepower.

Is the Kiith Somtaaw that one with really big boxes on top that block your view of... pretty much everything? If so, firepower ain't enough to make me fly that :crazy:

The Eagle will probably always be my favourite fighter, I like the feel of vanilla- and the eagle- best:)

the kiith somtaav is that thing that looks very much like - a big square box ( body ) and 2 other big square boxes attached to its sides ( errr.. wings? ) and a big box on top of it ( engine? ). all in all it looks very much like the lego masterpiece of a 3 years old with little to no skill regarding to design and style.

30.000 hull and an engine thats powerful enough to even allow the most fearsome weapons to mount still won t make me fly that thing. allthough - if you re a pirate you can very much use the several seconds of confusion when ppl see the kiith somtaav to demand your tax. ( ppl try to figure out what it is they see on their sensors.... flying depot? space trash? talking cargo boxes? )

attach thrusters on to a "red cargo pod" and it looks better.

Ps.: i haven t seen the kiith in actiion yet, nor have i purchased one to test it. i just checked it out with a CAD model viewer.

I'd love to fly one for the Phantoms... Sadly (see below).

The Marsflyer isn't overpowered. It flies like a brick with a guy on it whos blowing backwards to get it to move forward. Its the heaviest ship I've ever flown. A man in a Rheinland bomber flew circles around me. :wacko:

If it could move, I would use it. I love that ship... As I love cheap old movies! And annoying people by sitting on their bridge... "Bing.... Bing.... Bing.... Bing...."


Did I mention that I feel the Raven's Talon is overpowered? Meh. Guess I didn't. Oh well.

You all must have problems? Anyone of you ever flown a X-Shuttle:sleep: into combat? A Kingtiger of WWII has more agility.

I like the sounds of the Mars Flyer.

you don't you REALLY REALLY don't like the sound of it.

if im not mistaken its the poxy lookin ship from the original war of the worlds looks funny and good for novelty uses but thats all really other than that *pukes*

please correct me if im wrong on that one im just basing my assumption on the info card of the ship on FLDS

and if its not the right ship im speaking of whats the name of it
