Sorry, didn't see that. I can't really see any problems with it, so unless you come up with a design that totally abuses something I've overlooked, go for it.
Fantastic! Really, its a fix for Beamers. As it is now they keep firing at the most forward sections (you know... those aegised sections) Even as they are flanking. Lowering the arc allows them to behave more intelligently (so much as "SHOOT STRAIGHT DAGNABBIT" is intelligent :roll: ) Otherwise those flankers just keep shooting the front, even when the ship has a nice view of MS1's rear. This remedies that. :D doesn't sound bad, does it?
My sentiments exactly. :lol:
Don’t worry it has airbags.

Though I am curious, why didn't you go with a three Aegis set up?

On parented to the core targeting a section right infront of the core with two on the arms. Thats alot less vulnerable to rail sniping and also gives you 14 more points to spend on those Scatter Beams.

PS. Here's Cuddlefish for review.

^--- Still haven't gotten a response on that -_-' Legal or not legal?

Also, Mr. Wizard, can you mod your ship to have a dieterling?

I don't think it has a dieterling, that center part looks like the tractor beam and the two large modules on the wings look like rorschach. But I'll do it anyway. :D

It now has a dieterling, and I swapped out some of the weapons for ones more suitable for a ship expected to reaquire a target quickly. The new weapons also make it more dangerous in general. :D

Do I spy a Dieterling? :?

Look closely, the module smack in the centre. I seriously hope it isn't the thing we've all been dreading.

I thought that we knew it had a dieterling a long time ago.

I have a question:
Are we allowed to change the colour of our projectiles? Or would you rather we not touch the weapons editing panel?
There's really no reason I want to change the colour, its just to make it look better :P (just like changing Aegis colour)

A. Yes
B. No
From page 7 - so changing colour is allowed.
