Alternatives to the Raven's Talon and Raven's Claw - me_b_kevin - 12-06-2007
both of these ships are very popular for many reasons. a bit too popular for my taste. i'd like to have a fighter that looks cool, doesn't disappoint in a fight, and not something that every other person has. i've not gotten to test the newest fighter additions so i'm kinda relying on you guys.
It'll be for Mon'Star so it'll have to be sold on an unlawful or zoner base.
i'm not opposed to buying any kind of fighter, heck i'll even try a bomber.
just wanted to do a bit of brainstorming with you guys.

Virage VHF

Both RT and RC got nerfed a bit.. which is only good in my eyes... so that maybe half of sirius (Outcasts+BD) will use their ships instead.
To answer your question....any kind of fighter is very vague desciption...agile or more armor and power supply?
Fighter or bomber....?
Some of my thoughts... Mon'Star should probably have an armored heavy looking ship....
so the Waran :) that would fit with the madman RP and noone really flies it also :)
In case you don't like that so Falcata might be ok. Also the new hessian line of fighters look crazy enough for Mon'Star....or even better the Barghest.. huge armor, hug power supply.. agility is getting increased in next beta.
If you want a VHF... I'd suggest the Werewolf..... same as Barghest - huge armor, huge power supply.. ok agility (better than Templar anyway). Great ship for 1on1 fights when you want to simply overpower your opponent... and that's what Mon'Star does I think.
EDIT: Virage is nice... but it's small and agile... not really Mon'Star in my eyes

The Werewolf is evil. Also very ugly, with a huge power supply and as much armor as some bombers. Huge target from the side, though.
Quote:The Barghest is a mythological creature from English folklore: a monstrous black dog with huge teeth and claws that comes at night to bring sorrow and fright.
So that might suit him quite well, and it looks cool too.

cool, i've only seen one of these fighters and i've never tried the werewolf...but the name itself almost sells me hehe. are the locations where the others are sold in the read-me?

The blood dragon in the right hands can be deadly:)
Not heavily armored but damn that thing is fast and hard to hit.
Also looks pretty sexy:P
Can you tell what my favorite ship is?

For hitting transports and poorly-piloted fighters, I'd recommend the Barghest. It's mean-looking, with a mean name, and is armored like a tank.
The Werewolf looks like a Wolfhound, and I know you've seen those. So it's ugly, but effective.:P

If you can get it, the BHG Gunship (not the Orca GB) is pretty darn amazing IMO.
