The Spiker

...I think i set the Aaker's blaster RoF too high, and maybe a bit too low for the Spiker.

I'd advise saving ships and releasing them in bunches rather than one at a time, to attract more attention. And perhaps name the thread "Zater's ships updated xx/xx/08" like Seraph. Maybe put a link in your sig.

But don't force people to post, or make unneccesary bumps.

BTW, the Spiker's arms seem redundant. I'd put scatter beams on them if I were you.

So, should I bunch up the current ships?

Also, the arms are there for aesthetic(I was hoping to make them longer and to look less stubby)

The altered version with scatter beams

No, just wait until you've built a few new ones then release them in one go.

I'm afraid to say though, unless you can build fantastically artistic ships like Seraph, or nice asymmetrical ones, or just bloody gigantic monsters, they aren't going to get much attention.
