Being Min ships I wonder if those are water-based solar panels for aiding in pre-heating the water before it goes to the boilers that presumably is for the steam engines(and not the showers), or are they photovoltaic panels?

Too bad, I actuallly liked the "new" Thrasher. Any chance of more Minmatar ships without fins?


You do realize that those solar panel fins produce up to 80% of the capacitor on minnie ships?


So this is the reason my Stabber loses cap when I hide behind a moon. I was wondering about that.

Lore wise those panels are for the LIDAR based tracking system.


Certainly the Thrasher is helpless now...

I'm not going to disagree, too much.... but personally, I think the Hyperion is the prettiest.
Hype needs a CreoDron and Serpentis skin, BTW.... I reckon that would be ample payback for this fins fiasco.

I just realised.... I think I know what happened.

Have you been letting Tuxford play with buttons again?

Yeah, a black Hyperion (serp) would be absolutely amazing. I'm a big fan of the hull too. Let me ask you though, what would be better - Serpentis Hyperion or Serpentis Apocalypse (lore be damned)?

Because laser-based tracking systems use giant panels of.... things... to generate TeraHz-range EM output. :facepalm:
