Yeah, no need to come up with the new names for one.
Besides, I think there are already too many ships, adding new with certainty, that the old ones will never be used again is just plain folly imo.

Agreed that was kind of the essence behind that that silly post of mine earlier.

Well why not make the HF an intermediate class between VHfs and LFmkIIs.
So an HF can fight an LF in maneuverability and get close enough to fight a VHF in firepower. Not a specialized ship but a flexible one...

Exactly... imo, all it really needs is an armor/weapons/energy/shield boost.

That and only that. The handling is already as it should be.

Well the HFs handle like VHFs and that is not good if they have less firepower and armor etc.... Why? Because LFMKIIs will decimate them. So make the HFs strong enough to fight an LFMKII and fast enough to take a VHF vice versa. this could be one of the best ideas I've heard in a while...

Aye, Now I know many will want to give teh "New" Stilettos, centurions, dragons, crusaders, valkyries... a try, who knows, maybe it'll be a whole renaissance of these ships.
HF MK IIs? - TankTarget - 06-29-2007
Exactly, making up for the lack of firepower on an LFMKII and the lack of maneuverability on the VHF. And that will be nice and balanced and add a new class of ship for faction combat. And finally give me a good reason to buy a Crow and a Stilleto...

Vote! And when you vote, please post... I want to know why 7 people think the we don't need Heavy Fighter MK IIs.
HF MK IIs? - Qunitinius~Verginix - 06-30-2007
You don't need them because there already is a HF mk 2, the VHF. The Defender is a heavy fighter yes? When it becomes the Guardian, it is no longer a HF, but a VHF.
Anyways, I don't think we need this. The 'Catch-All' ship is the VHF, the fast ship is the LF and the Heavy ship is the Bomber.
