I've always thought that Rebel Destroyers actually made better escorts than their Cruisers. I think 2 Cruisers, 4 Destroyers would be about right, not counting my Cruiser.
------------------ So go on the internet game sites and bash all the PC users!
Nah. 7 Cruisers and their Mantas would make the supreme fleet. Way to go, diehectordie!

My opinion as well. I will sometimes hire up to two Rebel Cruisers because of their firepower and mantas when I'm taking over the core worlds, but my normal escort payload is six Rebel Destroyers (not including my own).
Congrats, diehectordie!

How do you hire Rebel Cruisers? I've never been able to hire government ships, even at the planets where they are sold.
The same thing happens to me. I don't know why either.

Actually, I believe heavilly-edited version of Escape Velocity allows the hiring of government ships. I've made it (using ResEdit) where government ships can be hired as well as purchased after you have completed all the major mission strings for a particular government. But hiring a Rebel Cruiser isn't cheap (I made it quite realistic. :))
congrats, and i hope your euphoria doesn't wear off.

You know, Rawzer, one of these days andrew will probably see that sig and change your name to something else just to spite you.

I didn't hire them. I captured them

I know you did, that was to someone else who said they hired some.

Yes, I remember Rawzer posting something at the Banter and Brawl about getting a "swedish chef" title. I guess andrew didn't see it...
Maybe if he posted it on Just Chat... andrew moderates that one, I believe. Rawzer, try it if you dare, should be interesting to see what you get.
I heard a guy whose first fleet was made up of his kestrel and 30 captured shuttlecrafts!!!

Impossible, you can't have more than 6 escorts. Not that it would be hard to capture 30 shuttles anyway. :rolleyes:
According to new rules decided by moderators, this topic will soon be closed. Before this happens, may I please add that 6 Rebel Cruisers isn't much of an achievement. How about, release them all and destroy every single one in a Lightning. That's an achievement.

Seven Rebel Cruisers? That's it? I got seven Confederate Cruisers for my fleet. I never seem to die. Hmm.

Uh, if you're going to use Cruisers, the Rebel one is way better. I reccomend the Rebel Destroyer, which also happens to make a great escort. I've never been killed when flying around with my old fleet of my Rebel Cruiser and 6 Rebel Destroyers.
I say the Rebel Cruisers are beter. whenever they get in a fight, the rebel cruiser always wins. The confederacy"s ships are to slow I'm with Macavenger, GO BASH ALL PC USERS!!

Sounds like my own fleet, only I use the Rebel Destroyer as my own vessel...
