    • Cool Ship Idea


      Hey all, I just had kind of a cool idea! The Miranu Heavy Freighter is not really a combat vessel. But imagine if you gave it an Emalgha upgrade!! :eek: 500 or so tons of free outfit space! Imagine, Voinian armor upgrades, all turning upgrades, maybe an Azdara bay, MAJOR miranu Defence pods, I dunno maybe space mines? Man that could really be sweet! Of course, it might suck. It would be interesting anyway.

    • It would be a pretty powerful ship, but it can't hold too many "primary" weapons, and it would be agonizingly slow (you can only fit so many turning and engine upgrades). But it might be worth a try.

    • I think someone already thought of that. Not sure though.

    • I tried that.You can only but one elmalgoin upgrade which converts 100 tons of cargo into 100 tons of space.The i used mass expansoins alot.The expansions alone cost around a million credits.Then i bought many Sads and fighter bays.Very expensive though.(I was the one who talked about it before.)

    • That ship would be way to slow for me and It can not hold very many guns.
      Other than that cool ship!

    • I gave it a try with an old account.... and it works out kinda nice... get a tractor beam, some neutron turrets, the speed upgrades + Aggy upgrade, dospect & bronev, shield enhancers/generators... it's kinda nice. šŸ˜„

    • I think what you would want more then the speed upgrades would be shield, armor and lots of missile/rocket type weapons.

    • You're right Catacomb, I thought that the emalgha upgrade automatically converted all cargo to outfit space. But if you've got the cash you can use mass expansions. Anyway, it can hold two turrets, which kinda sucks, but hey, it's just a freighter. Even with all speed upgrades including azdgari it's kinda slow. But with Bronev & Dospect, 4 shield enhancers, a shield generator, an Azdara bay if you're with the aggies, 8 defence systems, not bad. It's pretty cool, in fact. šŸ†’

    • Ooh, ooh! If it's too slow for you, do it in a Miranu Freighter!! Not as much space, but 3 turrets and better speed!

      That is a good idea. It would be pretty cool...but I'm too lazy to try it myself.

      Great idea! It sounds sorta similar to one of my ideas for EV: Get a Bulk Freighter and fill it up with mass expansions. It's like a cheap Confed cruiser without much shields or armor.

      And I didn't mention those or anything.... you know, the words that came after "all speed upgrades"......
