Yeah the lamda has at least two rear facing turret mounts... weather they are loaded with defensive laser cannons depends on the duty the lamda is fufilling (shuttleing VIPs, Troop Transport)


And anyway any rebel pilot will tell you those suckers can pack a little punch when you are first starting out.

Play the game or don't it is what it is and will never be what it was for better or worse. I intend to play the game as long as it is fun, that does not make me a fan boy of brown noser. I know the game has it's flaws, but it serves no purpose to dwell in the past.

Now i know this would be imposable, will for the time being, but, would it not be cool, if you could completely, build your own ship, from size to design. For exp. if you put together two different, types of ships, to get your own unique ship...very unique, like Han Solos Ship, the Falcon, the good old Falcon. The piece of junk.

Also, Slave One, wasn't imp prototype, it was a priosn ship. And slave 1 was a firespray right. I might be wrong.

my response: Did you not read the part where you take the schematic TO A SHIPWRIGHT to get it built into a blueprint(come on dude, read the post before you run off at the mouth)

If you were forced to use POB-only parts, you wouldn't be able to fly the ship at 1 million mass. POB parts are 250k apiece.


my response: Look genius, just because you can do something dosent mean you have to.

anyone else want to spout off before actualy reading what i posted






Considering I quoted the line in question I'd say that my having read that part would be a safe assumption on your part. Or did you miss that part?

While it doesn't lock SW's out of the loop entirely it does lock them out of a portion of it. If anything, SW's should be the ones to buy the schem, or craft it from loot or ANYTHING other than being a schematic monkey for people like you. It's bad enough being an RE monkey.

Read your line about the use of POB parts again. Slowly.
It's possible for it to be misconstrued to read 'Can use POB parts ONLY'.
Sorry that not everyone has a reading comprehension level sufficient enough to avoid upsetting your delicate sensibility's. Of course you couldn't have been at fault for not being a bit clearer in your post, OR clarifying the point instead of jumping up to flame.

To go a bit further, the idea of a KSE handling ship being able to use POB shields, or ANY POB parts for that matter is idiotic.
I would explain a bit about balance and trade-offs but it's quite apparent that you're not interested in productive discussion, your only hope is to jump on anyone with a dissenting viewpoint.

That clear enough for you genius?



If a poisonous snake is dropped on top of you from a gyrocopter, don’t freak out and shoot your own driver with your arrow gun, making the vehicle lose control and blow up. Its probably just as scared as you are.

nothing is stopping shipwrights from buying the schematics. Many shipwrights, like myself, are also pilots. For those that are not pilots, its one of the tradeoffs you make in this game. You canthave everything.

It is only possable to think that if your first language is not english, are dyslexic, or the type that looks at 2 words and assumes they know the sentence. If you fit either of the first two catagories i apologize.


On to your final charge. I like to see dissenting opnions in my threads, so long as they are considered arguments. Simplyyellng, "you dont care about balance or trade offs" is not a considered argument. I believe I presented a proposal for a balanced ship type. Present anargumentas to whyI am wrong andI willlisten.


With all of that being said,I admit I could have been more polite in how i responded to your arguments. For the lack of tact in my prevous posts i apologize.
