Finding themselves increasingly squeezed by the heavy BAF presence in Leeds, hostile Mollys in Dublin, and encroaching Gallic forces in Orkney and Lewis, the Gaians tasked their best engineers to come up with a fighter that could meet these forces head on. The Chameleon was designed with its main opponent, the Paladin, in mind, and succeeds at besting its agility, although not its armor rating. This suits the Gaian combat style just fine, since they prefer hit and run attacks over direct, sustained assaults.

Review (4.86)
The Chameleon is a great ship for people who like to be lighter than the usual VHFs while still having their firepower. It has 6 class 9 guns, while most Heavy Fighters have some of their mounts being class 8. Unfortunately, it also has a small power core, causing it to drain fairly quickly. Its hull is pretty much average for a Heavy Fighter, and same for the shield. It's quite a small and fast ship, but its appearance is misleading. While it looks like it would be a tiny arrow, very difficult to hit, its little wings on the back make its head-on profile just about the same size as most Heavy Fighters.Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Review by TLI-Inferno |
