Bombers, an Old/New Approach

[Malaclypse 666]

As I seem to be browsing in the crazy mofo idea department lately,
bear with me here.

Consider the lowly Dromedary. What if the Liberty Navy (an example) were to "adopt" it, bump it to say, level 8 shields or so, and stick torp pods on those stubby wings in place of turrets 6 & 7?

They'd have a nasty "Bombardier" which performs almost as well as the Rheinland Bomber in flight right now.
(Well, maybe not almost. Perhaps a little tweak...) It would just have weps which are equivalent to the levels of "vanilla" Liberty. Or, if you're thinking "Mark II", then bump to lvl 8 weps as well.

But please, paint that puppy's nose red, and hide it on a guard base.

A Clydesdale on steroids with some molded-in pods at 10 and 2 axial might be an impressive sight.

Not sure about those poor Kusari, though. Don't think I'd get caught dead in a converted Camara, or whatever it is. It might be killer, but...

Maybe Zukeenee would buy one!

The bloody Pirates seem to get their hands on anything, (fix that, will ya?), but the ol' X-Scow already sports one pod, and even though it has lead in its pants and a crappy paint job, a bomber revamp would have me checking my HUD twice to confirm what it was.

As I can't even make a good buttcheek imprint, I'll leave my idea to the likes of Mohr and the rest of you good folk.

Or, just toss it in the punchbowl with the others.
