Why not have missile turrets for fighters/bombers? Take up ammo, like regular missiles, except can be on a turret slot. I think all those missilespamming fighters would enjoy it...i know i would...

A million dollars isn't cool. You know what is cool? A basilisk.

I'd actually use them then. I hate asymmetrical loadouts, and turrets are usually centered.

Oh man. Rear-firing cannonball turrets? I'd finally have something worth sticking on that rear turret mount on the Raven's Talon.

Or better yet, on the Roc's rear mount.

Exactly...i'd create a missile-spamming transport if i could. It does seem a bit strange that its only gunboats and up that get them...

old idea is old.

That said, If any were good and worth using, I'd proably put one on my PTrans's aft slot for defence

Only if Transports get the ability to mount fighter turrets removed. Missile P-Trans... *shudders*

Would be pretty lulzy to put a missile on the back of a Roc or Wraith or something and shoot them back at people as you pass them in a joust.

Only one problem with a backwards firing missile launcher

In case you haven't noticed your velocity adds or subtracts to the missiles velocity...so a cannonball traveling at 91 m/s fired out of the rear of a fighter moving at 200m/s will be moving forward (the direction your ships is moving) at a rate of 109 m/s.

That could just be a fatal flaw in rear mounted missile launchers...

Less Spam, More Skill please.

If you want to propose Spam-Based-Missiles for Fighters, propose Anti-Spam-Ammo-less-CDs as well. But like this? Nope.
