This has been suggested before

Your listed armor is way too high (there needs to be trade offs to keep the ship balanced). It is a bomber, that means straight line runs. So drop the spin torque . If you insist on having all that armor, then there needs to be a huge trade off, like the turbo energy being 65/s. Keep in mind the Skyprom has 21000 armor, and has a turbo drain of 60/s. The Cargo should be 1-2. Oh, Lightships should not have shields.

I made this post before NarWalrus edited his post. So it looks out of place now.

Why do suggestions for having shields on normal ships keep coming back? Unless you are new and are not too familiar with the game, you should know how drastically it affects combat.

Those stats, badge requirements and a shield seem to show that you want it to specifically be used for soloing leviathans, or make doing a leviathan extremely easy for two....

Why do suggestions for [INSERT ANYTHING HERE] keep coming back?

Because people aren't aware of / haven't bothered to look to see if there had already been a discussion about said ideas.

Happens all the damn time here.

Basically you want 3x swarms on an extremely armored rag. Dumbest idea ever...

Btw, ineubis DO have an use. Have you tried their Ravens?
May 22, 2018 NarWalrusWarrior link
Ravens are a bit unethical at 8 grid. Perhaps that just because I rarely use ships with less than three ports.
May 22, 2018 NarWalrusWarrior link
Edited. Instead of a high normal thrust, I put a doubled turbo to compensate. Less armor.
BTW, 1,000 armor shield can be popped in a single hit by nearly all weapons in double setups. Its just to protect from stray, unintended shots.

Too fast/Too strong
May 22, 2018 joylessjoker link
Absolutely not. You shouldn't be able to put 3x swarms on any single pilot ship. Dumb doesn't even begin to describe this concept.

Heavy Miner MkII can equip 3 swarms. But there is a huge trade off to doing so. Namely have only 10k armor, and having a top speed of 160 m/s.



Could you explain what you mean by "unethical"? You can equip them with any two port ship without any issues ( exception: running a Extreme Drain cell which only has 5 grid).
May 22, 2018 Mi5 link
Might as well double all shields and armor across the board if you put this ship in my hands with a set of avalons.
May 22, 2018 NarWalrusWarrior link
Changed yet again.
May 22, 2018 joylessjoker link
the ONLY way I would approve of this is if the armor is like 6k with no shield, and max speed is 140 m/s.

Remove the armour and replace the 3L by built-in swarm launchers from each color for dis gayass setup ship.

+1 DeathSpores LGBT awareness rag, I will use exclusively for shooting Tripod.

Getting warmer, NalWalrusWarrior! I'd suggest just two slight tweaks: halve the armor and double the weight.
