Just interested what are your personal ships?
Mine is called Thunderbolt, it's a Lazira with the following moddifications: -SAD modules replaced with the SAE modules. -dispersal rockets replaced with 15 pursuit missiles (my favorite little toys :D) with 2 launchers -one Emaghla turret for Voinian armour.
I am currently leading a fleet of transporters and am a trade ship with the UE.

LOL THATS A WIMPY SHIP
I'VE HAD A BUNCH OF SHIPS, BUT I THINK... THE ONE I HAD THE MOST FUN WITH... WAS A CRESCENT WARSHIP I PUT BRONEV AND DOSPECT ON INSTEAD OF THE CRESCENT FIGHTER BAY. I SOLD THE PHASED TURRETS FOR NEUTRON, AND USED MASS EXPANSIONS, I HAD A COUPLE MANEUVERABILITY UPGRADES, AND HUNTER AMMO WITH THE REST OF THE SPACE.
FORGIVE THE CAPS.
BTW, THE SHIP WAS NAMED THE S.S. SOPHIA, NAMED AFTER ONE OF MY GIRLFRIENDS. I HAD MY ESCORTS DECKED OUT WITH UE DESTROYERS... THEY ARE THE STRONGEST SHIPS WHEN IT COMES TO LARGE GROUPS.

I'll like to drive the Azdara only for the pleasure ofcontrolling it, it ois starting to become difficult to fly at 200%...
Well, I liked the Arada because of its speed and because it was my first real ship when I first played. I had a transport before and I had managed to get to 1M credits, what patience I had.
When I want to Hunt freely, I end up using a Iagzra, the UE Cruiser takes too much place on the screen, and the Cruiser is too slow, but good in the crescent.
One tip if your not in the game yet, double or tribple the same pilot file to find the most suitable upgrade to your preferences.

Never really thought of using an Arada. I was so patient I went from transporter to Lazira (That took a while ), Then I hired a fleet of transporters. Now I currently haul cargo and do UE deliveries. I'm hoping to get the rescue scoutship crew mission, where is that at?
PS. I got a signature yay :D!
------------------ I may only lead a trade fleet but attack my transporters and feel the power of my mighty ship!
I did the beardy thing and made stacks of cash on a cheeky trade route, then bought a crescent warship, so it has all of the mission upgrades. plasma siphon, cloaking device, "and a ." , nebula penetration scanner thingumay. Other than that standard spec apart from one emalga gun. I am going to have to get a one-jump ship to do the f-25 plug which I just got though (sob.)

My personal ship is nearly always a Zidara or Crescent Warship with neutron cannons and turrets and 3 dispersal rocket launchers with ammo.

An Azdara with neutron cannons
My personal ship would have to be a Igadzra, maxed out with phase turrets, SAD and SAE modules, pursuit missiles and dispersal rockets, and a few others besides. Oh, and a few layers of Dospect armour, and a few shield enhancers to go with it. Costs a bomb though...
Trader - you can find the RSC mission at any UE port with a bar, but you have to be patient, because it only appears a few times... and you also need a combat rating to do it - anything above Dangerous ought to be fine (I only know this because of EV Edit )
All the best

Thanks I'll be doing some battles with the Voinians to improve my rating. I don't usually fight so I only have an above average rating :frown:.
A Crescent Warship called "Shining Dawn".
Decked out with: 4 phase turrets thrust upgrade RCS upgrade 3 fual tanks Pursuit(sp?) missiles Cloaking device 4 Shield Enhancers 2 Shield Rechargers
That is, unless i'm using a cheat plug.

Hmm, like your ships name
I love to use my Azdara, the Blitzgeber (Flasher).
5 Swivel Phase Cannons Exp. Shield Recharger Shield Recharger 2 Capacitors
That's a very fun ship to pilot when the game is over (1 cargo space will stop you from doing missions, so best used to just have fun )
(This message has been edited by Seth (edited 02-24-2002).)
This is about my tenth new pilot file and this is what I have at the moment
Scoutship.
1 Mass Expansion 3 Swivel Phase Cannons 2 Needle Launchers + Ammo.
My most origional reworking of a ship is this.
Voinian Transport.
2 Freighter to Warship Upgrades 2 Mass Expansions 1 Thrust Enhancement 1 Engine Upgrade 1 RCS Upgrade 2 Phase Turrets 2 Pursuit Missile Launchers and 50 missiles 1 Dispersal Rocket Launcher and 10 rockets 1 Bronev Plating 1 Dostpect Plating
Now try to tell me that Voinian Transports Suck :D.
------------------ Do you want to know my signature? really? well... Tough!:p
My advice would be not to upgrade a scoutship. It takes a lot of money and scoutships die to easily. I would just save up for the next level of ship you know Arada's and such. They have more room for expansion and don't die as much.
Well I have two pilot file on the go;
Old file;
Cresent Warship (S.S. Apocalypse)
RCS/Thrust/Engine/Mass expansions Crescent Fighter Bay 3 Crescent Fighters 3 Phase Turrets 1 SAE launcher + 30 SAEs NPD Cloaking Device (my favorite) Plasma Siphon 2 Fuel Tanks Afterburner ECM Needle Missile Jammer 2 Shield Generators
Some of the numbers may be wrong (number of SAEs)
New pilot file;
Aldara (Hunter)
2 Phase Turrets 1 Dis. Rocket launcher plus 20 rockets Afterburner ECM 2 Fuel Tanks
Again, I am not entirely sure
My dream ship would be the Zigarar Warship which I haven't unlocked yet.
Isn't it worrying how the Izagra looks like a giant, yellow, flying penis? Sorry, but it put me off purchasing it...

Do you mean the arada or azdara?
Hoho,
I don't have a clue, I can' remember any of their names properly. The silver one with the green fringes, a heavy fighter (NOT the insect-thingy). It is pretty sweet for such a low price...
Standard Trader Arada
Just started a new pilot file. I currently drive an Arada with the following -all phase cannons removed -1 mass expansion -2 neutron cannons -needle launcher+12 needle missiles -1 emaghla cannon (pathetic except for Voinians)
It's called the Event Horizon (neat name ;)) and I have 7 million credits whoohoo
