which makes me think that the assertion that you need better stuff because you're getting swarmed, rather foul.

Never something I have claimed... I think they should have better kit, and I think the Phantoms should have better kit, simply because they -are- special factions. They are the big bad enemies. People should crap their pants when they see Keepers or Phantoms.



Look at it objectively.

The Assassin: I'd rather fly an RT or Sabre.

The Bomber: Gives me no greater advantage than the civvy bomber.

The LF: Hardly used and impractical in most situations.

The Guns: If I could I'd put Black Widows on all my ships, they just feel -right-.

The Missiles: Identical stats with the disadvantage of not being able to loot ammo during a fight.


Edit: Martin, explain to me why it was then that I ended up taking on four keepers and a wilde in my [LN] Guardian, and didn't feel any more intimidated than if I were fighting rogues, outcasts or xenos.

"Missiles are for the weak" perhaps your joke radar is broken...

I personally find it fun to attack enemies who have superiour equipment. Special factions such as that are there to be feared. This is my point. If you're concerned by that realy, then you'd nerf the living hell out of the liberator (far too small for how fast it is) and you wouldn't even have considered making the RC how it is now (Insanely hard to hit, beleive me I've tried, and very 'skittery' in the right hands). Not to mention the phantom guns.

I've fought both with and against the nomads on numerous occasions. Sure, the nomad bomber is probably my favourite ship in the game, however it only just feels a little bit nicer than the civvy bomber to me. Nomads are not invincible.
