**Uh, I got into an Emalgha Freighter, turned it into a warship, etc. Guess what? It sucked!
Oh, and one more thing: I fly a virtually invincible (dramatic pause) ENHANCED ARADA (and not just a regular arada that's been souped up. It's the one the Azdgari have. That's why I love 'em) I have only 4 phase guns and 2 phase turrets for weapons, but I can almost (if not) take down a crescent warship head-on. And, if my shields get too low, I go out of firing range for less than 10 seconds and I'm at full shields! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
My ship's trade-in price is OVER 11 MILLION CREDITS!
I have (I think): Density+IFF scanner, my weapons mentioned above, 3 shield enhancers, 1 shield booster, NPD, and some other stuff. I should get some more stuff!
You guys should try it.
(BTW, I think it comes with less weapon and cargo space the a normal arada. But hey, it's much more than worth it.)------------------

I still prefer the crescent warship. I don't even use a fleet with it. Toe to toe all the way. I've never been taken out with it. It doesn't fly fast, but it packs a wallop.

You all must upgrade the emalgha ships incorrectly, if you don't outfit them right they die, if you don't fly them right, they die, The best maneuver is to come up behind Vionions and hit them in the buttocks with needles and cannons blazing, then when you are above them spin out of the way before you can get hit by their rockets, or if you have a plasma Siphon, use that over Needles and be sure to have all armor and all shield projectors, then make sure you got a fleet for you'll end up with only 20tons of cargo (poopy!) but you make a lot plundering Vionion Supply Ships, watch out for their escorts though.
P.S. My ship is worth just over 13 Million!

Without cheating: To be honest, I prefer the Zachit Fighter with upgraded shield and a Dospect layer. You can use a normal Crescent Fighter as well but the Zachit's shield are better. This ship is so hard to get killed in and I have whipped out some Crescent Warships with this one.
With cheating: Voinan Dreadnought with upgraded shields and Bronev Armour. Nothing can destroy it, nothing can beat its firepower and with a few motor and turning upgrades, say goodbye to your enemies.

I respect all ships and their nutty crews except if your Vionion and in that case....
Hello there, I'm one of the board moniters and I just had to erase the lower half of this message for more then the fact that it was several pages long... But he did mention something about flying his UE Cruiser right up someones arse...

Me? I'm just happy in my souped-up Freight-Courier. It's not really a F-C anymore, more like a light capital starship. Hell, man, I managed to defeat the U.E.S. Incontrovertable in it!
(you do know that the U.E.S. Incontrovertable is the most powerfull përs in the game, right?)

I'm intrigued by everyone's choice for "Kick ASS ships," especially because you've overlooked a modification I love: the neutron turret. These guns really "Kick ASS." Put five of them in a UE Cruiser, add some Bronev plating, and some shield enhancers, and you can take out anything, easy.
Fighters? Please. That's what tractor beams are for. Ciao

Scuse me, Fear right? Whatever... you forgot all the speed upgrades bud....

The only bad thing, it is takes a LONG time to kill the dreadnaught when you're only shooting it with two guns that'll do anything to it.

If I'm plying the Voinian Missions, I get a frigate and 4 phase turrets. Some more shielding (don't bother upgrading armor, everything shreds it). I might get an azdara bay, but they're expensive to replace and do little actual damage.
With cheating, I'll get a Voinian dreadnought and Arm it with 8 Neutron turrets. 'nuf said.

Freighter-Courier: A very cool ship if you get some mass expansions and give it some heavy weapons. It looks awesome and flies nicely. But there are far tougher ships, so don't stop here.
Crescent Warship: It can do pretty much anything when fully beefed up. It can take a serious beating, and can carry a lot of firepower. It isn't maneuverable, but with that much shielding/armor it doesn't really need to be.
Lazira: If you simply can't stand the sluggishness of the Crescent Warship, then this is for you. However it can't take as big a beating as the CW can, so don't start thinking you're invincible...
UE Cruiser/Voinian Cruiser/Igazra: For those few situations where the CW can't last, this definitely will. However these are not fun to fly around, so you may want to trade back to a Zidara/CW if you don't need the toughness anymore.
Zidara: After beefing it up, this is possibly the coolest/best ship to use in general. Like the Lazira, it can't take a serious beating.
Arada: Needs more shields/armor. Otherwise, it's a nice speedy ship.
Marinu Gunship: Ehhhhhh, too weak.
Shuttlecraft: Yeah!!! Try dominating a system with this!

**I agree, but I flied one of these for a few hours this weekend, and it
actually wasn't too bad when I used it against Voinians. What made it
decent is that it's reasonably fast. I wouldn't like to use this ship
in the cresent, especially against its intended foe (renegades).The problems I have with it are: 1) Too few guns/turrets for something
called a "gunship". Not even as much firepower as a Zachit Arada! 2) Pretty
much duplicates the role of a Lazira.With those two things in mind, I wonder why the Miranu/Zachit bothered to
develop this ship. It doesn't really fill a niche for them.IMHO, this ship should be beefed up and made to be more like the Zidara:
give it lots of forward firepower, and shielding somewhere between Lazira
and Zidara. How about 4 (maybe even 5?) forward guns, dispersal rockets,
fast (arada-like) turning, and about 1400 shield. Should also have a pretty
large fuel tank since it's patrol area is large and since it has to keep up
with and escort those big-tanked Miranu freights and couriers.That would actually be a pretty nice ship, and more useful for its intended
role, too. -

**Ok, let's have a side-by-side comparison between the Emalgha Freighter and the UE Curiser.
UE Cruiser has a ton more shields
UE Cruiser has more armor
UE Cruiser is more manuferable
UE Cruiser is more expandable(has more mass)
UE Cruiser has more turrents and more guns
UE Cruiser has fighters
UE Curiser's crew is 609 vs. Emagara Warship's 84
UE Cruiser comes with more weapons
You don't have to spend 16 million on it - maybe pretty close, but not quite depending on what you like to get.Unless i've overlooked something really major, I don't really see how a Emagara Warship could be anywhere near as good. And so what if you can easily take on a bunch of UE Cruisers, I could take on a whole crapload of Emalgara Warships/Freighters/whaterer you want to call it(s) with my UE Cruiser and come out with my shields still up!
Heck, even a UE DESTROYER is still better than a E. F/W in almost all of the above fields. And it could outmanuver them easily enough so i could take you out in you're EF/W without a scratch, except maybe from a few Needle Missles, but not if I have a Needle Jammer

See you would be wrong trying to compair a emalgha warship to a UE cruiser, because my E. Warships strength dosen't lie in numbers but in the pilot, I fly my own maneuver and I have taken down a U.E. Cruiser (when I felt evil once I took on the U.E. fleet with the cruiser) and I won, also I don't always use the needles, the plasma Siphon works good too!

**And what manuver could you pull off in a E Freighter that you couldn't do in a UE Curiser? The only advantage the E Warship has over it that i can think of is it's a smaller target. And if that's a big deal, then how about a UE Destroyer?
And the Plasma Syphon doesn't do you much good when you're attacked from behind. Neither do Emalgha Truuents if you're in something as clumsy as an Emalgha Freighter
