NPCs flying new ships

[sean24]

Ok I was thingking, there are so many new ships in discovery that we dont see in vanilla but in terms of population zones alot of NPCs fly vanilla ships all the time. I think that for say....Dauman, there should be some chance of them flying..Rhienland amroured transports, behemoths, rhienland trains ect...

This would be really interesting I think becuase otherwise you dont see all the disco ships around all the time.
It would also portray a sense of change in the houses from vanilla as well.

(I know some factions have NPCs flying their ships like the Hessians, gallic factions and so on.)
Any thoughts, ideas?

too many hessian npc stucks in stiletto and sabre while they should be in their... whatever thing they are named after.

not to mention that liberty could really use the guardian and avenger patrols, along with some upholders. Naval shuttle could be grizzlys instead of AT.

And same goes for every house. where are the bomber NPC patrol?

I agree with this,

IMG trains to Atlases
Daumann/police AT in Rheinland - Rheinland armoured transports
GMG miner NPC (egg carton ship)
Republican/daumann behemoths
bowex percherons
aegeria/universal mammoths
samura bumblebees

you get the idea...
that would look very awesome, all osrts of faction NOC ships floating araund a planet, instead of the overused vanilla ships.

True, too many NPC's flying vanilla ships.
For the first time there is a simple solution, it is important that the vanilla vessels are replaced by discovery vessels with very similar stats like the vanilla one, otherwise there will be balance issues from the start.
In the future a rebalance would be the best solution of course, but it requires time.
For example in Omega-50 and O-49 we could see a few Virage's instead of Eagle's flying around.
In the House Systems the new ship lines of course.

I think there should be bomber patrols in the fringes of a house, and capitils more in the centre. Same for the Corsairs and Outcasts, they should have capital partrols round Malta and Crete and in guard systems I think.
