Gunboat Advice Needed - Camtheman Of Freelancer4Ever - 09-12-2009

Well, I want to know what the largest gunboat is.

The Bretonia gunboat seems like the biggest, but Rhienland might come in close. Have any ideas on this?
I need ideas for a future character, and I want it to be a gunboat. I need to compare weapon hardpoint numbers to size, agillity to weapon hardpoint numbers, ect you get my point.

The Largest gunboat?
The Bretonian one and the Salvager come to mind...but I don't know exactly, this is just from eyeballing them.

Salvager... And you wouldn't be as restricted than if you were in a bretonian GB.

I dont plan on not being restricted, I just want a gunboat, Wether it be house, pirate, or what, and I need suggestions and experience because I dont fly gunboats much, I have one bomber, a BS and a trader...

kusari explorer is a pretty good gunboat if you fly it right.

Doesnt have a forward cannon like the kusari gunboat which is pretty usefull...
Kusari GB is so TINY

from the front : bretonian gunboat
from the top : zoner gunboat

the salvager hardly counts as a real gunboat - its based on a completely different concept.

Salvager is not a gunboat. It's a transport with less firepower and durability than the CTrans or Shire. It just has the neat gimmick of being able to fire pulses, razors and missiles.

Seriously, it's big, it's inagile, it has a transport shield and no CD. Do the numbers on its damage per second compared to either of those two ships.

Technically it's not gunboat, but in game it is rather easy to consider it being one.

Oh, the Zoner boat, yeah that's huge from the top, I forgot about that one.
