A LF's dream

[Thexare]

They have their place, and do a job very well. I just find myself wanting to vomit with motion sickness every time I try.

Try the Scimitar. I know, I say that a lot, but it's one of the slower LFs (probably because it's a smaller one.) I have issues with some of the faster ones, too (like the Falchion, ugh), but the Scimitar's just about right for me.

So, we seem to have some disagreements about what'll make LFs better... I have a crazy idea. Try each out. Give us Sirius-wide Civilian options with better weapons, better shields, extra mines, higher impulse/thrust speed, whatever you wanna try. Since they're Sirius Civilian, any faction can use them, and we can easily gather data on what works best.

Hell, I'd probably buy every single one of 'em.

Look at the HF class. You've got a bigass ship with LF agility and near-VHF firepower (Crow), an agile flying saucer with Slipstream guns and a Sabre powerplant (Marauder), a heavy HF with six class 9 guns instead of a mix of 9s and 8s (Kingfisher), and whatever the hell the Bulldog is. Why not try the same thing with LFs, using that to see what works for people?


(plus, I just like that extra variety.)
