Alt suggestion: Make the LP Greyhound Manufacturable

Nov 24, 2018 We all float link
The nerfing of the LP greyhound was, while justified, controversial as well. There is a push to bring it back. I propose that it be brought back instead as a manufacturable ship. Combat 5 required to build. Allow it to be manued at any station that corvus is involved with (all their main stations, plus Pel C12, Brac M14, Latos I8, and Latos M-7). Similar build items to the superlight.

Corvus Peregrine
Armor: 5500 (armor reduced to shoehorn in the large port)
Cargo: 2 (hold reduced to shoehorn in the large port)
Weapons: 1s, 1L
Mass: 4800 kg (less armor makes for lighter ship)
Length: 10 m
Thrust: 200 N
Turbo Thrust: 500 N
Max Speed: 45 m/s max speed compromised to maximize turbo efficiency
Spin Torque: 6.0 Nm
Turbo speed: 228 m/s
Turbo Energy: 38/s

-1 just the idea of a ship that can infi turbo while using missiles or mine launchers with a pcb is a no in my opinion. Especially as a single mposi can deshield goliath. Making it so that the hound can deshield and sustain that kind of damage against a capital ship at all is just no lol

Will this be added to the corvus manufacturables that require a reset every 50 items built?

That is a good idea Luxen, it should count toward the Corvus manu limit

The build requirements woild make it something rarely built, and much rarely used. Thus defying the need to incorporate into the game.

+0, I like the concept, but with all those nerfs, maybe the build requirements could be lesser?

We got rid of the lp version because all the swarm running players were constantly disrupting various activities and no one could catch them which is unbalanced. No player should be able to attack others with near complete immunity from retaliation.
