Firefly's wouldn't be too bad. A nice medium transport really. (That model is horrendously out of scale) A firefly is roughly the size of a Behemoth freighter, and we really don't have allot in the 1000 - 2500 cargo transports.

haha the battlestar isnt exactly to scale either. i'd kinda prefer to have the firefly as an alternative to the x-shuttle.

Well In my humble opinion the Firefly is a bit more of a small transport than a freighter.

A Firefly class would be a good fit as a medium sized transport that can hold its own, say, traveling from House systems to border worlds/lands. There really isn't a common transport for the factions that live off on the edge. In terms of the "story" to the Firefly Class ships, it was an old design compared to its contemporaries that was once a widely used workhorse to carry goods and people over medium to long range distances, ideal for work in the "Borderlands" of the " 'Verse." It is also widely used for smuggling. I can really picture doing contraband runs in this ship.

Cargo range around 500. Probably would not want optimal weapon class above 8, but that is really hard to figure out from this point.

Of course, I am biased because I am a fan (Browncoat) at heart, and in terms of game play, it would be a good fit. And it would please many of us.:yahoo:

in your opinion, yes, in mine, no.

if we allow this ship in the mod then we are going to have every single guy who thinks that a BSG ship or a Star trek ship or a Star wars ship or whatever show is FL-ish posting threads about "ZOMG!111 i want that zhip!!!11"

Quick change of mind?

Yes, perhaps...

Best solution would be to follow the idea of clans making and adding their own ships the same way as systems.

The Firefly does bear a striking resemblance to 'Civilian' Freelancer designs... Far as I can remember, there's no Civilian Freighter.

Currently: Remastering Kiith Somtaaw's Acolyte Fighter. These Homeworld ships need some Sirius work done on them. ^.-

I agree with Dopamino... replace the X-Shuttle with Firefly !!

(What can I say - big Serenity fan and I absolutely hate the X-Shuttle design... looks like a... nevermind)
