A LF's dream

[mjolnir]

@NightHawk, mini razor does more damage than a nuke, so that's not possible

---------------------------------------------------------------

@ "mini glaive"... uhh 1000 m/s speed .. sure
To quote someone: "It's too slow it should have 10000 m/s speed, now you might even miss once in a while"

it would also need own gun class to avoid VHFs spamming it etc etc... all in all rather problematic.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

@LF variety

I'd say there is ok variety in the class now, you ave Loki with torp slot but rather large, then tiny and responsive Liberator/Hussar/Wyrm, multi-gun Scimitar/Decurion and fast turning/bad dodging Tigershark/Griffin

=========================================================

It is however important to make one thing clear here:

LFs are not meant to be extremely universal/popular. They are rather specialized ship that should work in some roles.

They should not be so fast or so hard hitting that fighting them in VHFs becomes pointless. Anyone who has ever fought or flew Nomad Fighter in a bigger fight knows what I'm talking about.

They could use some small changes, but not a universal big buff which will make them into some ultimate killing machine.

I think we can agree that LFs problem is not that they are too slow/easy to hit, but more that they might do a bit too little damage. Because of what I wrote above I see own gun classes and other radical measures as simply too much.

The things I liked so far were:
- extra mine slot
- more power regen/capacity
- torp slot on some more of the big ones (Hyena, Partisan and Phantom (with dodging decrease) come to my mind)
