Titan, Lonevoinian, sigh, sorry, no invincible ships (that means no dreadnaughts) allowed.

------------------
"Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you walk into an open sewer and die." -Mel Brooks

The Dreadnaught is not invinceable! I edited my post so its not a Dreadnaught anymore.

------------------
Victory to the UE!

Yes, the dreadnaught is not invincible... however, it would make a really lame përs. It's a special ship, for one mission in the game. Stick with the basic ships for your përs. And the whole point of the plug was to make them ships you actually fly, with the improvements that you actually add without cheating. That's the whole point of the "shield/armor % increase to make up for the dospect/shield enhancors that you add....

I touched on this in my original thread, but whatever.... so, how about we lay down some rules?

1. No invinci-ships. Includes Azdaras, Dreadnaughts.

2. Overstuffing fighter bays is ok, as long as its a reasonable amount of fighters

3. Try to make your stuff match... Igazra warship with Aggy upgrades as a "Zidagar government ship" just doesn't fit.

4. About shields and armor... just use % increase from the original ship's base values IE: If your ship is a UE Destroyer with 150 base shields (I think that's it), and you've added 90 shields to it (somehow), then that's a 160% shield change. Saying "with 800 extra shields" could mean shipyard units, ev units, normal people units, etc, etc, whatever.

5. Fill out the whole form that miranu posted originally. Having gaps is really annoying, cuz then we have to go back and ask you.

That's about all. So far I have 7 përs' stats totally written down and ready to give to miranu.... any other takers?

I'd really like to use a stolen Enhanced Arada or a beam-toting Igazra, but this "stock ships only" rule does make a lot of sense, so I guess an Igazra or an UE Cruiser would be the most logical choice. Then again, virtually all other users use these ship, so that would be kinda boring.

OK, here's my përs. I never tried the ship in-game, and I realize it's never going to be as good as an Igazra or a UE Cruiser, but at least it's innovative.

Name: Spellchecker
Government: Cinga
Location: Anywhere but Voinian territory
Agression: Reasonable
Run: 10%
Ship: Miranu Freighter
Credits: 5,000,000
Shield: 475% (justified below)
Weapons: -2 Defpod Launchers (-10 Defpods), +2 Phased Beams, +1 Zidagar Fighter Bay (+4 Zidagar Fighters), +2 Needle Launchers (+250 Needles).
Grudge: Yes
Escape Pod: Yes
Comm Quote: "You can call me 'Master'."
Hail Quote: "Misspell an alien name and I'll kill you."

I start out with 40 tons of weapons space. Add an Emalgha freighter upgrade and 9 mass expansions and sell the defpods, and you get 290 tons of free space. Yummy!

Put in both Bronev and Dospect armor, leaving 210 tons of space. This adds 150 armor points. However since përses can only modify shield strength, and since armor is much better against most weapons than shields, I translated the armor into shields at a 1.5 ratio (which seems very conservative to me). That's how I get 285 shield points (475%).

Stick in two Zidagar Phased Beams to take advantage of those ten jumps of fuel, then put in a "supercharged" Zidagar fighter bay (as allowed by Flatulence). A regular two-fighter bay is 75 tons, so I assume that a four-fighter bay will be slightly more room-efficient... say, 140 tons. That leaves 30 tons for the two Needle launchers.

------------------

Also, it would be cool if you had an uninhabited system somewhere that would force at least two përses to appear (feasible in new EVO), as well as some juicy pirates for the përses to shred. Then we wouldn't have to wait ages to see one of them.
