' Wrote:Or...you could balance the current Bret BS?
Instead of cementing the normal BS as an obsolete hunk and bloating the mod further with some new 'dreadnaught' thing (that, as I understand it, will wipe its tuhus with the Kusari BS, leading to cries for A SUPER KUSARI DEATH STAR PLZ), why not try to fix what we've already got to work with?
Please realize that I'm not criticizing the model itself - it looks pretty good actually. But unless it becomes available by Admin-approval only, and there's truly only ONE, then no. As bad as the Bret BS is, I see people flying that thing regularly; god knows how many of these things will be out in space as soon it hits the open market.
Or what mb52 said.
That's certainly an option. However, I think it's agreed among the Brainstorm that this ship is meant for killing one thing and one thing only, and that's all it's going to be good at - killing medium and heavy Battleships. This thing is so large and its guns are placed in such a way that any three half-arsed bomber pilots can murder it, and it should NEVER be mobilized unless there's a war fleet with it, which is something I think any of the indies dumb enough to buy this thing without significant research and pre-planned RP will shortly realize. Remember, this ship is probably two to three times as WIDE at its widest point than the Outcast Destroyer is LONG. It's one of those heavy Dreadnoughts that's only good for one thing and anybody dumb enough to buy one without a faction to support it is going to regret it in short order and probably sell it.
EDIT: Also, the Bretonian BS does need a considerable buff, because with its armor rating I don't even think it's competent against other ships of its own class (I sold mine partially for that reason). However, that's not going to make it any better against the Kusari Battleship unless we about double the strafe (or triple)...
