So... are you actually suggesting a bear or do you want beer? Because that makes an awfully big difference in this case.



Beer is always there. A bear, on the other hand, is not.

Bear and nude women together? ...well, I don't know. This could very well be disastrous...

As long as the nude women are chained, like in a Boris Vallejo painting, it will all be fine. >_> <_<

They acknowledged problems with the Omen and Maller. Thank goodness. Those things are worthless as they are now.

And the new stabber looks smexy.

I am selling all my ships and replacing them with vagabonds. 2 months later when the hull is not new any more I shall regret that decision but I'll still be flying awesome lizard ships :P

I hope they do not do this.

It is bad enough they took the lazy way out with the Merlin instead of fixing the problem.

I don't want to see the Moa go down that road. I want it to be a ship that is primarily used with Rail Guns as intended and Deadly with them as it should be.

If that means tweaking medium LR weapon balance then so be it. There aren't any current T1 Cruisers that use LR weapons effectively and that should be looked into.

the problem with medium long-range turrets is that their range and tracking is about the same as short-range large turrets. good luck fiddling around with medium rails when the next best abaddon or tornado comes along.

I should buy an Ishtar.

Finally....Justice for the Vaga's hull, also confirming moa needs serious attention.

The moa would look decent if it wan't bent like it just hit a planetoid at high-speed and bent to frame...

I said down once and using photoshop kind of un-bent it out and it looks rather nice then.

I didn't say anywhere about making it a blaster boat; I said gunboat hawtness.

I might actually fly that.

I really didn't like the Stabber or Vagabond as they are, or were. I also din't like mounting guns on them, because they are twice the size of the ship.. okay, maybe a little less than half the size individually. It also doesn't seem to matter which guns; small or medium they all look the same.

A better hull will be nice though.

For some reason, I think of mud-green paisleys every time I think of the Stabber.

I think the most important thing to note is that it looks like it might get the classic 'Huginn Green' engine trails

I do, admittedly, miss the green contrails from my Vigilant. Getting them back somewhere would be nice.

It shows that you are a patronizing clown, or maybe it means that, for you, the word "context" would be as comprehensible if written in Klingon.

I was merely stating, in a light tone, that I like the new proposed hull looks so much that I'd rather have them than absurd sets of additional bonus.

I was not quoting the exact bonus of the Vagabond, or proposing sets of bonus that would go well with the current ones, but just random and unconnected buffs to state how beautiful it's going to look. Which is what everybody with a living brain cell understood. Not you, though.

Thank you very much.

Also, I can see you are a dedicated Vagabond pilot. I absolutely love your scanning Vagabonds. Specially your scanning NANO Vagabonds that get caught by Battleships. Those BS's must have been packing a helluva lot of SeBos, right? Or was it the Command ship?

Most probably you were busy looking down your nose at people while you forgot to warp.
