    • Secondary Weapons


      I know what most of you are thinking, "Not another Poll!" but I haven't seen this topic posted within the last five pages (That's as far as I've backtracked) Anyway, If you think this is stupid, don't post. I'm not requiring you to vote. VOTE NOW! Keep your Opinions (Other than those about secondary weapons, of course! 🙂 ) to yourself. I was wondering what Everyone thought was the best secondary weapon available to the player (No Igadzra Beams and Voinian interceptor bays) I vote for the space mine. It makes it easy to lure ships to their death and the enemey never gets close enough to fire his guns at you. Enjoy!

      Results:
      Space Mines- 1

    • Hmm... I don't use secondaries all that much in EVO (noone of them are all that great), but I do like the Pursuit Missile. The Plasma Siphon is good too. Err... which one will I vote for... I guess I'll place my vote for the Pursuit Missile because it is more readily available.

    • A nice choice. I have a feeling that weapon will be quite popular. I think I will update the polls at least twice a day in seperate posts. (My posts are pretty low...)

    • Dispersal rocket. Fast, easily obtained, powerful, and has a cool sound.

    • Good choice. I imagine that Dispersal Rocket will get many votes.
      On a related note, just a quick question: The abbreviation for Dispersal Rocket is Dispy. Rocket, right? Why Dispy.? Where does the 'y' come from?

    • Against the Voinians nothing beats Heavy Rockets. I guess I'll place my vote for them.

    • A fighter bay. UE Fighter bay is good, because you can overstuff it. Crescent Bay is good because it's nice, easy to get, and the 3 fighters can back quite a punch. Aggy bay is good... well, cuz it has Azdaras. And lots of 'em.

    • Good question. I hadn't ever really taken the time to look at the Abbreviation. That doesn't seem right though. My guess is typo. "Y" doesn't really fit in any other way. However you would think that with in two versions, that would have been caught.
      Flatulence: What type of bay in particular?

    • Dispersal Rockets. You can stop fighters in their tracks and destroy them with turrets.

    • I would have to go with the pursuit missle. They're extremly lightweight, fairly accurate, i luv the noise, and best of all very fast, great when dealing with those pesky fighters.

    • I'd probably have to say Phased Beam, given that it's the only one I make a point of using. And of course you can't sell it off the Zidara.

    • I like the basic Voinian (and copied by the UE) rocket best of all. Not turreted, just a forward-facing launcher. They're hard-hitting, inexpensive and quite widely available.

    • I like the pursuit missle. Fast, good guidance, and decent hitting power.

    • I rarely use secondary weapons, mainly because I never have any room for them, but when I do, Hunter Missiles are my favorite. They really hurt a Voinian Cruiser if you let them buildup for a while. However the launcher is a bit too big.

      Put me down for Hunter Missile
