Today, I took my Evo-1B Charon out for a combat test.
Found a Gas Miner Karasu in Sigma-19 that I decided to test the Charon against. It went well!
Preliminary tests showed that it doesn't handle Krakens very well, but a mix of Wyrms and Debilitators worked great. It's probably adapted to IMG weapons and Wyrms work a lot like Vampires, I guess. Some of our Sabres are modified that way too.
It handles well. It doesn't feel quite as responsive as the Sabre, but still quick enough to dodge mines.
Speaking of mines, it seems to have adapted to them really well, along with vertical turning; its wingtip weapon mounts can fire straight up. I lured the Karasu into chasing me vertically and eating a few mines.
Its weapons are underpowered compared to our Sabre, but its powerplant gives it more firepower than a Switchblade.
When I get a chance I'll run the Charon through some fleet battle tests.
Overall, the IMG made a very solid ship. But if this was what they made into the Nyx... why isn't the Nyx more effective?
Maybe we're just that much better, hehe!
Maybe we should capture a Nyx and run the same testing.
Magician out!
