I usually fly the Rapier for the extra space, but the Lightning's speed makes Confed missiles look like sluggish rockets. Go ahead and give a vote for the Lightning, just to take away the "one pitiful vote" status.

Lightning. The Rapier just doesn't cut it. The torpedoes are worthless. Of course I never use secondaries anyway.

Lightning. I usually make it a little better with ResEdit (hey, I make it cost more!), but even without my modifications, the Lightning is still better. Faster, better weapons, and I think it looks better than a Rapier. Rapier = Blue-tipped Marshmallow. Lightning = High-tech F-16.

I'm new to this board, but not to EV. I like fast fighters, cuz I'd rather flee than fight. So mark me for the Defender, please.
Chalk up another Defender vote. Thanks.
I like the Defender too. Speed is the number 1 consideration for me.
Ha! Take off that "pitiful" tag. Look .. :rolleyes:.. at all those Defender votes. The Defender ROCKS!

Um. Sure. I have never, and probably will never, fly any of these three fighters. Scoutship, Corvette, Rebel Destroyer = Good ships.

Sorry buddy. I'm not stupid enough to realize you used three unregistered usernames to knock the Defender's vote number up.

Yeah, right. Three mysterious un-registered average joes all suddenly pop in, one in a row, and vote defender. Perfectly normal.

What an outrage! (sputter, sputter) Can you people actually be accusing, me, KK, of ... "cheating"!!!???
Well!!! It's a good thing there is a rule against duelling, here. (There is, isn't there?) Otherwise I'd take off my glove and ... and ... and....
... Okay, I cheated. :frown: Keep the dumb 'ol "pitiful" tag if you want.

I like defenders... cheap and speedy, I go to Confederate systems and attack the luxury liners and transports 
then when i get a little more money I buy a bigger ship and hang out on evildrome with the pirates

Rapier: 8
Lightning: 5
Defender: -2 (All votes for the Defender count negative because it sucks so much :p)
Long live the mighty Rapier! (Not that I'm ever likely to fly one, but it is better.)
Oh, and KK, you need to learn to cheat better. Don't put all the votes in at once, and put some serious differences in style. Maybe I'll have to try to rig a poll sometime, just to see if I can do it...
