Igazra
they blow away the others in seconds even thoughs pesky cowards the Azgari.
The Zidara is two low on shielding to be much good :frown: and the Azgari Warship hasn't got any secondary weapons.------------------

Azdagari Warship doesn't need any secondary weapons. It has those annoying little Azdara freaks. btw, I love the Azdagari...
In my opinion, I like the UE Cruiser. It's got tons more space then the Igazra (If you sell those crappy rocket and Hunter launchers) and has a good amount of shields. With upgrades, it is alot faster and manuverable then an Igazra and with 4 Shield gen. and Dospect it is has more defensiveness than an Igazra. btw, the UE Fighters are awesome (Though no one likes them) and help out alot. The Igazra has no fighters or fighter bays. I guess that's okay, but I like having back up :).

The best warship in the Crescent? I'd say it depends on the pilot, but lets see and give each one a good breakdown.....
The Zidara is quite handy for those who want a combination of speed ludricious for a warship (its faster then some fighters). Its phased beams are rather brutal. It doesn't match a Crescent Warship in terms of sheer firepower though, the Zidara is more for pilots who have a need for speed but want to be able to have Destroyer-like firepower. What's ironic about the Zidara is that even though its shielding makes it vulnerable in close-range combat with other major Crescent vessels, close-range combat seems to be exactly what its designed for, as its secondary weapons (the phased beam & dispersal rocket) have a very short range. Skilled pilots can make it a murder weapon if they want to. In my opinion the Zidara is a very good ship, its just not the best.
The Crescent Warship is the best all around choice in terms of versatility, and is thus my personal favorite. Its firepower and shielding is nice, and the player can jam an extra phase turret on there for a total of 4 turrets. If you sell off the fighter bay, you get tons more weapon space to play around with. Its got good firepower and decent weapon space. Its also the ship to get if you want your own Azdgari Warship. As for me, I like to load up my CW with the speed upgrades, get armor from Paaren station, then fill up the rest of the space with whatever my heart feels like experimenting with....
The Azdgari Warship is, pretty much, the CW with an Azdara bay on it with everything else removed. There's also a slight manuver upgrade to it, if I remember right. To upgrade your CW to a Azdgari Warship configuration, sell everything off your CW, then purchase 4 phase turrets, an Azdara bay & 6 Azdaras, and a RCS upgrade (Azdgari upgrade is best if you can afford it, since its better than the RCS upgrade and doesn't take up space). After the upgrade you won't have a lot of free weapon space though. Whether having 6 Azdaras to command compensates for that depends on your own opinion. Personally I stay away from this configuration not because of its lack of power but because I like ships that give you space and freedom to work with....Crescent Warships, UE/Voinian Cruisers (UE Cruiser more though :p), Aradas & Laziras, ships like those with a lot of versatility. I'm also not a major fan of fighter bays, the only reason I use the UE fighter bay is because it comes as standard on my UE Cruiser and I can't get rid of it (though it does prove useful at times). That being said Azdaras are likely far more dangerous in 1.0.2, which probably makes the bay much more useful. It is worth noting that the Azd. Warship configuration is waaay superior to a stock CW. Then again, none of us fly stock CW's (I hope).
The Igazra is the monster of the Crescent. With twice the shielding of the CW and 5 phase turrets it can take out the stock Zidara & CW pretty easily. However, in my opinion the Azdgari warship is another story. Unlike the Azd. Warship and the Crescent warship, the Igadzra has no fighter bay (I know I said I don't like fighter bays, but when they are there at least I can sell em' off and get lots of space). With 6 Azdaras firing combined with the 4 turrets of the Azd. Warship, the Igazra can be given a real run for its money. The best thing about the Igazra is its SAE's, but quite frankly I think that even though they're ehanced modules they get jammed WAY to easily. Its not even worth the effort to use them against the Zidagar, you may as well throw rocks. Personally, I think you'd be better off ditching the SAE's and arming the ship with a few more dispersals, some pursuit missiles, and whatever else you like. They are great damage-wise at least. If you are a major anti-UE or anti-Renegade person, by all means lay waste with it.
Overall, as I said before, my favorite is the Crescent Warship. I've found I can do the most with that, my particular configuration can kill any vessel from the above list anyways.
All of this said, its of course a matter of opinion as Andrew M says. This is just my personal view on things, different pilots tend to have different tastes. I like to think these are fairly objective reviews, though.

The Igazra is the most powerful ship in the game. If you are talking about buying it, the only major drawback is that it's virtually impossible to capture escorts (a favorite passtime of mine).
The Azdagari Warships are not particularly good. I like Laizras better than CWs because of the better maneuverability. Also, with a plasma siphon and a bunch of defense pods, anyone can take out Azdaras until they are blue in the face. Slow them down with turret fire and the plasma siphon, then when a few are right on top of you, switch to the defense pods, and watch the little bastards burn!
Zidaras are pretty annoying if you have to kill more than a few at a time. Otherwise, I think they are pretty worthless.

The Crescent Warship is far superior to all other ships for the pure reason that it can be modified to do anything. i mean, the igazra may have more shields and sutff, but can u modify it to fight voinians, i.e. removing everything and putting in 4 blaze turrets and 30-some hunter missles? Now THAT is a ship!

The most powerful and dangerous would probably be the Igazra. Although the Azdgari Warship is also very deadly with its Azdara fighters. I would say it's a tie between the two.

Ok, thanks guys. Just wondering what your opinions were.

Actually, my overall favorite ship is the Azdara. With a few shield generators, it can survive a single run on any ship except for an Igazra, and after a few seconds you're shields are 100% again, and you can make another run. And maybe if you outfitted it with a layer of Doposect instead of the Generators, then you could survive an attack run on a Igazra, since phase truuents don't do as much damage to armor. And being a a ton more manuverable that most warships, you can dictate the course of the battle more. If you get in trouble, you can outrun anyone.
But, when it comes to warships, my faviorate would be the Igazra. I don't really like the SAE's that much, and if you sell them, you have plenty of mass to work with.

my ship of choice is a modified V. cruiser, and heres what i put on my ship:
1. sell rocket turrets and rockets for nuetron turrets
2. 4 shield enhancers
3. both dospect armour and bronev plating
4. rcs, thrust and engine upgrades
5. all mass expansions possible
6. ecm
7. density scanner, iff decoder
8. fuel pods and fuel scoops
thats the best, but i could still beat anything with any ship above a lazira, modified------------------
Life is evil, live with it -
Personally, I favor a UE Cruiser over anything else, and Igadzra is my second favorite. However, I like the Adzgari and Zidigar on my side more than anyone else. Especially in 1.0.2.

**If those are the only choices, then I would go with the Igazra. The
main reason is that I think fighter bays are a waste of precious space.
With the Igazra, you can sell off the 3 SAE launchers for 105 tons and
then use the space for something useful.Can't get rid of the bays on Zidara, Cres Warship, or Azdgari warship
without resorting to a plug cheat.If you cheat and sell bays, though, then the Azdgari Warship is objectively
better than the Crescent Warship, though, because it's identical in almost
every way, except for faster recharging shields. A Zidara relieved of 80 tons
of bay is formidable too, though. -
Personally, I think the Zidara is the best warship. I used to think it was the UE Cruiser, but now I have seen the light. The Zidara, with upgrades, is fast enough to fly circles around most other warships, and the phase-beam is a devastating secondary. The Zidigar fighters are not to be laughed at either. They have a good shield recharge rate, and they also have phase-beams.
