Alright, I'll have the stats of pirate weapons and ships in the morning. I would have put them up earlier but school is being a pain right now and any free time I have is first allocated to any e-mail from my girlfriend.

Alright the new weapon is the Vandread cannon. Basically the same as an HC HALO. New ship is the Pioneer-class gunship.
Shields: 160
Armor: 50
Speed: 325
Acceleration: ••••
Turning: •••
Fuel: 5 Jumps
Price: 3,000,000 credits:
2 Neutron beams
8 Tri-photon Turrets (remember that all ships have the turbo upgrade)
4 Cluster Missile Launchers
40 Cluster Missile Packs
4 Vandread cannon
400 Vandreads

The price is final as this is basically the same as one of the HC gunships, albeit with different weapons.

True. I'll bet size-wize, BFS III is a bigger website, however (because of the large number of graphics).

True, but that's only how many k it is. 🙂 Mine has a lot more info, but I do wish I had some of your graphics skills. 🙂

Heh, believe me, Bryce ain't the best program for ship modelling. I've tried myself with version 5, and it makes Infini-D look extremely simple. You've certainly got graphic skill, you just need a good 3D application to use it on...

Well, I can make some pretty dang nice alien ship models with the meatballs. 🙂 But yes, Bryce is limited, and my time is limited, so it doesn't work out perfectly. 😉

No, it isn't. It's the same as one of the HC gunships with far superior weapons. Please stop including prices with your tech research, as it has ceased to be funny, OK? It was at first, but not anymore. Just put a question mark or something.

Also, All ships don't come with the turbo weapons. That constitutes doubling (or better) the close up firepower with no change in cost. In fact, I think I'd rather just have the Turbo turrets and Dreden quad turret killed for simplicity. I killed the HC quad turret at the beginning for similar reasons.

Oh really? I didn't realize that space bombs were worse than missiles and the such. And I put prices because those are about what I believe it should cost. I base these things off of the HC ships and where I feel that it would be more powerful I subtract weaponry or add to the price.
Also, the ships do come with turbo weapons. After all, nobody questioned them so that meant that it was okay.

Also, Mac, would you please update the shipyard? I have 3-4 ships that need to be put up.

It's obvious to anyone with half a brain that you patterned it off the Tigershark, not the Hammerhead, and that the weapons are way better. So it should cost more.

Why'd you get rid of the Dreden quad turret? It's exactly the same as the original, only it has four barrels instead of two. 😉

I really need a price for the latest Dreden ship before posting the defense fleet...

Minor, confusing upgrade.

As I said in the story topic, make your fleet without it. Technically, you've already used up your ship research quota until page 11, and I have enough other shipyard updates to do (reference spl_cadet's post).

spl - What do you have except the Styx, Excelsior, and this new thing? Isn't that all?

Very well. Dreden should manage.

Funny... I thought I was behind in terms of ship research. 😛 Guess I was wrong...

Hypocrite. You said that same thing when I questioned the gravprojectors. You set a precedent which I am using.

Yeah that's all. I wasn't too sure when I made that post but those are the only ships.
