Loks good, would make a good convoy leadship, and normal transport shields will do, its small cargospace will keep it from beeing whored, the Prisonliner isnet common either, not even the Luxliner is.
But maybe 3800 with no CD and CM, to realy get the full of the freelancer ID (or indietrader)
' Wrote:hmm, oh and dusteh.... a slave liner with all Tcerbs can almost do more damage then a Storta/Scylla with all primarys....
but its almost as long as the LN dread (15% shorter)
Well It cant if it is pounded with nice pulse guns, I do cap 8 Lux liner with my P transp (Cap 6, 3 pulse 5 Tcerbs) even without using the bots,but exactly dusteh ate me alive with his behemoth...... because the better turning and small size.
On the topic :this ship will work nice with normal transport shield indeed ,freighter one is overkill.And may be due to the small cargo size CM may be?

Uh, you still have to take into account the accuracy differences. A Slave Liner with full Cerbs will have some extreme targeting issues, because Cerbs only shoot at 600 m/s.
Now, about the proposed balancing, please make it larger than 3200 cargo units. That's just not enough to warrant using it instead of the Behemoth.
I think making it the Akegata and Shire stats are the better option, and with the Liberty-Shire being proposed and modeled, that leaves us with a Con-trans per house.

I'd rather have it be bigger and keep the cargo space. Or be 10% smaller and have 10% less cargo space.
Jinx, can you address this please?
i have adjusted the cargo capacity of the ship to 4k now - ( but thats always only a suggestion anyway - cause its balanced in communion )
here s an excerpt of the ini i have attached to it:
it says :
- 350.000 hitpoints ( which is a hell lot of hitpoints for a transport )
- 4k cargohold
- 750 bats / bots ( which also is quite a ton )
- class 6 shields ( 29k )
- low agility
- 14 turrets
basicly a tough rock with a minor shield - and its not 90% of the size of a shire - but around 70% ( after another comparison )
