OK...let's hear it:
What are you flying around in?
Give us details!

anything adzgari. i have a need for speed.

Personally, I'm flying in a Rebel Cruiser, outfitted with a ton of rockets, torpedoes, missiles, and proton cannons. It's been upgraded so it's nice and fast, with a good turn rate. It also has 4 Mantas.
Its extras include a Cloaking Device and a Tractor Beam.
I have around 13 million credits.
I basically make a living off of pirates, disabling them and robbing them. My primary place to go is the Darven system. It's a great way to go -- it's fun, and everyone likes me. I'm even an Upstanding Citizen in a few Confed Systems (even though I work for the Rebels all the time, and have blown up countless Fed ships).

I fly a rebel Cruiser with all the tweaks. I have a grip of torpedoes, turrets, cannons, javelins, particle beams.
But it just wasn't enough, so I went into ResEdit and increased all the values last night. Its my first time doing that but what fun! I have ridiculous amounts of speed (700) manuevering (3 + steering upgrade) and weapons space (500 extra tons) the only thing is that increasing your shields doesn't seem to work. hmmm need to figure that out...
I also changed the characteristics of the torpoedoes, so they fly faster than anything and do more dmage than anything (1000 !)

How do you guys fit so much onto your ships? I think robbing pirates can get boring, it's way too easy and doesn't bring in much cash.

Vellos Javelin, mmm dogfights. It provides the challenge I need instead of using long range attacks with missles, ect. I like to use it un-upgraded too, only the Vellos weapons.

Hmm, we have people flying EV, EVO, as well as EVN ships in EV. Very odd.
Well, depending on which pilot file you're asking about, I'm either flying a Scoutship, Defender, Corvette, Kestrel, Rebel Destroyer, or Rebel Cruiser.

I usually fly a rebel cruiser, destroyer, or a corvette. I upgrade them with all the tweaks, armor, as many cannons and turrets as I can, and the rest of the space for torps, missiles, and rockets (heavy and javelin). For GS I also have a ddt fighter bay.

As for me, I generally end up in a Kestrel at the end unless I'm trying to do something spiffy which requiers a different ship.

In one of my pilots, I went from a shuttle to a scoutship, then to a Corvette until I beat the Rebel alien missions, and then, finally, a Rebel Cruiser.
I later made a copy of that file and played Pale with that ship (love that extra space and added jumps!
)God bless,

It is, but it's slowwwww. I've never tried.
My best pilot file has a Rebel Cruiser and six as escorts. It has all proton possible, and some laser to fill the gap. All speed, shield, armor, and fuel (ramscoop, afterburner, auto-refueller) upgrades, maybe some bombs, too, I forget.
My second best has a Confed Cruiser and one as an escort. It has the same as the other, but with more laser and bombs.
