Yeah like, I was liking the new minmatar designs. Until I saw that destroyer. Ohgodohgodohgod that destroyer. Mindbleach, I need it.

I have to agree the Reaper is a travesty and I feel sorry for the new minmatar pilots that are greeted by it in their hangers. As for the Tempest I was hoping for something more like this Tempest a little sleeker and sexier

I don't think the reaper looks bad, just cartoonish.

Do not assume anything above this line was typed by me. Nerf the Truth, it's inconvenient.

The redesigned Reaper... chunky and not very Matari looking overall but, at least it looks like some thought went into its design. I can't really say that about the monstrosity that is the new destroyer.

I just hope they don't give it a knife-related name as many of the other Matari ships. It's definitely not "cutting" edge or "sharp"! Big smile

Hmmm, actually that thing looks pretty good IMO.

China was getting too expensive so, it was outsourced to Iceland which was a bad mistake as they obviously like to drink while doing their design work. Blink

What is it with Caldari ships these days, they're starting to look more and more Gallente...

That destroyer in particular has so many Talos overtones.
