A fan of "S" Size ships, which one would you pick?:
EDIT: In case you are wondering since you cannot see the ship base values in the buy option easily. Any ship that you have ever seen will be in your Encyclopedia, it comes with all basic infos so you can directly compare between ships more easily!
So I have to gain favour with both factions still (I'm not much of a trader except for anything illegal while trying to not get caught) since so far I did a lot for Hatikvah and some Teladis first.
Which one would YOU guys think would be nicer to have if you have to stick to it. (All values are without player research mods)
Eclipse Attacker S Class
4000 Hull (rather tanky for a small boi)
2x S-Shield bays for around 3K Shielding
4 Front facing gun-slots232m/s unmodded top speed.4 Cew Members320 Cargo hold
Pulsar Attacker S
Class1900 Hull
1x S-Shield for around
1.5K shielding
6(!!!) Front facing gun-slots
300m/s unmodded top speed
4 Crew Members
150 Cargo hold.
I REALLY wanted to use the Quasar Attacker S because it looks like an X-Wing on crack...but the thing just makes 0 sense balance wise.
1700 Hull1xS-Shield for around
1.5K shielding4Front facing gun-slots
247m/s speed
3 Crew Members
190 Cargo hold.
I really hope Egosoft does something about that last option. The Pulsar is squishy as heck on paper but at least is has SIX gun slots (which is insane for S-Class since some Mk2 Puls Lasers with mods will make it rip through carriers easily) and good speed while the Eclipse is an S-Class tank with firepower to back it up a bit.
Meanwhile all the Quasar S has is its' damn fine look...unless I'm missing something :[
Either way...if you absolutely had to fly ONE of these for the rest of your life, which one would you pick and why?
While you guys (hopefully) answer I'll start working on the standing really quick :)
