Death Scythe

[Tenacity]

the one nice thing about the scythe is that it has both a torpedo/disruptor slot and a disruptor only slot.

If more VHF's were made with that design, they could use an inferno or razor without having to give up their cruise disruptor. Those are meant to be fighter weapons, but are never used because it means giving up an invaluable tool.

2 debs, 4 class 6 missiles.

Is there a class 6 missile? I found class 7, but I didn't want to waste the class 7 slots for debs.

Thanks for the advise guys, this ship isn't going to be about pwning anyone, just having fun with and making a good RP ship for a merc. So any suggestion is good.
I will most likely use it for escorting traders and such.

A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.

one of the greatest problems is its lack of a sufficient powersupply. - even nuke mines need energy to drop. - so you might not really want to rely on them too much.

the armour is quite thin, but thats OK - cause the ship itself is flat and can strafe well up and down - its not too easy to hit ( i don t know the hitbox - i m just judging from its visible shape now ) and it has 6 gunslots, which is just ok.

one of the greatest problems is that it is outclassed by mk2 light fighters. - if we had no MK2 LFs, it would be a nice HF fighter. - but LFs have equal to more armour, more manouverability and 2x8 and 2x9 guns - which is ... in the end more firepower than 4x6 and 2x7. - the torp slot is really good - and since a sunslayer does not require energy it can be a nasty surprise for an enemy.

it is a good pirate ship against freighters ( vanilla freighters, not disco freighters like the turannic ) - but it might be up to the job of pirating ships like the rhino, the camera even ( although the camera is more agile, has more armour, more shields, more firepower - well.... never mind )

if that ship was smaller and as agile as the slipstream, it would - well... it would be something like the slipstream - a heavy light fighter.... but right now, its a heavy heavy fighter.

Yea, except for the fact that almost everyone using a freighter is under-level and cant be attacked.
