The Blood Dragon still needs a bit increase in turning. It should be more like the sabre but even the Ravenclaw, a fighter/bomber, turns MUCH better and faster. I fought Gezza and no matter what I couldn't turn and see him. I also used Datastorm (don't kill me Igiss....) and checked the stats of the sabre and Blood Dragon.

Sabre:

Steering: 43,000 43,000 60,000
Angular: 41,000 41,000 41,000
Rotation: 8,400 84,00 4,400

Blood Dragon:

Steering: 40,000 40,000 60,000
Angular: 38,000 38,000 38,000
Rotation: 7,200 7,200 2,000 <--- might be a big problem...

As you can see the Blood Dragon doesn't come very close to the Sabre, even though the two ships should be nearly identical. Maybe even better than Sabre, as the Sabre has 1 more gun even. These changes probably need done to the Chimaera as well.

Well.... I don't see them being better than the Sabre. You know that most fighter turrets don't do squat. :P

The blood dragon handles pretty much like the dragon it's based on, to me at least.

Why would the chimeara need it's agility to be as good as the blood dragon?

The chimaera has more armour so it's agility should be worse then the blood dragon's, not by much, but it should be out-turned by it's lighter rival.

Oh I thought they were identical. Okay the Chimeara needs a little less than the Blood Dragon. But the blood dragon does need an agility upgrade. Something like a Sabres agility or so.

why would we need ships that are practicaly identical to eachother?... theres no point of having most ships being identical in stats like manuvrebility armor etc... this comes to player experience and their flying style...

I'm not asking it to be identical. But the Blood Dragon still needs an agility upgrade. Its almost as bad as a RH Bomber. I did test this in a Phantom vs. SF fight were I could barely outurn Kiggles bomber.
