I just wanna say good job on the new Nemesis design, it's incredible. I used to look at it and think, "this doesn't look like a bomber carrying large torpedos" but now it looks deadly.

Rather than looks, it'd be nice if they fixed function instead.

Looks awesome, love ratting sec status in it. But they need to get all the bombers on par with the purifier. Nemesis and manticore are painful to fit.

True, it isn't my first choice to go into battle with. It's sexy now though.

ooh yeah !

Manticore is sexeh too, Hound lost his shark thing but looks really nice for me, but Purifier, well if it wasn't the best looking ship it still has hard time to win whatever beauty contest. It's beter looking but still lacking personality, aggressive looking, charisma !

Nemesis looks awesome now, even if it's evident that batman would like to have his ride back. P

I like the improved looks of all of the SBs. Purifier may not be the best looking of them all, but it's nice for Amarr not to have top honors in that category once in a while. The Hound reminds me of a speeder bike from "Star Wars" (not necessarily a bad thing), and I really like the looks of both the Nemesis and Manticore; they both look like predators now.

The Nemesis and Manticore both look great now.

CCP should add more NPC 0.0 space to open it up and liven things up: the Stepping Stones project.

Sure it looks wicked. Not really so much traditional Gallente, but oh well all the ships are starting to look the same.

However, it will still die more than the others because it's agility IS STILL SO ******* BAD.Sad




And happy to see that someone else wants the Hound to recover it's shark fin (as long as we are talking looks).

Wow, yeah the Nemesis looks awesome .. very space-ship like.

For some reason they made the Purifier look like a water bottle delivery truck though .. they seem to very hit and miss with regards to design decisions

The Hound might very well be the first Minmatar hull that I honestly dig.

The new Manticore and Nemesis hulls are nothing short of amazing.

The new Purifier is OK, but aesthetically the worst of the bunch in my opinion.

Now, if I only the Nemesis was even remotely on par with Hound and Purifier, I'd fly it. Sigh...

Not sure which Nemesis people were looking at, but the new version of the hull flies like someone threw a VCR out a window.

The new shape really sets the lack of maneuverability in very sharp relief.

I miss the old "fat boy" hull already. At this rate, I'll have to skill into a Manticore.

Is it just me, or does the torp launcher hardpoints in the Purifier look weird? There isn't enough thickness under them to hold the length of the torpedo when retracted.

Actually my first instinct was the Warhammer 40,000 Necron Spyder. In essence a merger between the older model and the new one. (Link is to the newest model).

Either way, I love the new look, regardless of origin or inspiration. Nicely done CCP.

The only thing I don't like on it is the boxy protrusions under the wings.

It's very angular, I personally would have made more of a sloping edge to feed the bottom into the underneath of the "wings".

The only thing that could improve the Nemesis would be the Green Goblin strapped on top as usual.

That's what it reminds me of.

Also, I can't stop spinning the Hound. I know cammo paintjobs are stupid and pointless in Space, and that some ships are less appealing with them (looking at you, Navy Mega), but the Hound is frigging awesome.

It's imperative that the guys at CCP redo all the Minmatar hulls to this new level of rusty cammouflage epicness.

No, really. It looks REALLY, REALLY good up close.

Nemesis is absolutely staggering in it's menacing beauty, but the designers did superb work with all of the new bombers.
