'Whale' of a ship - Aubinator - 10-27-2006

OK the ship at Planet Houston called: Whale

Looks great.... I figure it should carry more cargo for the size and look!!!

only 3500 cargo avail.

BUG?:

Guns/Turrets: 0/12
Optimal/Max weapon class: 0/80 ??? <- whats going on here? a new class of planet destroyer weapons?

sorry if this has already been stated...

Yes, they made it for a reason....But... What is the reason? Because if it had some form of protection some one mite use it? Just a guess. :unsure:

Whats it's shield then?

A paperbag? It's there to be used, if you don't want to use it because it hasn't got any weapons thats up to you.

Besides which transport and gunboat weapons don't help alot of traders anyhow, they just add to the repair bills...

I've seen people using the whale, so it's obviously still usable even without weapons.

Plus like I said, gunboat weapons will not save any transport/train/trading ship from a cruiser or a BS.

Wow,,, Still nothing. So I gather that you have seen folks using his ship and you have blown them up, good for you. You may take solace in that. MEANWHILE The question still remains unanswered. I have to assume at this point that you did not design nor had any hand in the design of this ship. If you do not know the answer please do not respond as I am sure you have to go flip some burgers or such that needs to be dealt with.
Now as to a real answer, Someone took time and effort to design a ship that that cant defend itself and I am asking once again if the designer is viewing this thread, please, what was the thought behind this as I am sure nothing in it was just willy nilly. As per Newtons law Yata yata yata.

Your attempts at humour and insults are wasted.

I have yet to blow up a whale with any of my characters.

You still haven't answered my question either, why would it need weapons.

It's upto igiss what ships go into this mod, it's up to igiss what, if any, weapons go onto a ship.

Either post this in the mod bug thread, which is why igiss made it or stop posting.

Besides, the only bug you've pointed out is an infocard error.
