5thHorseman's Playthroughs of Each Ship

[UltraMantis]

I start Season 3 of the show off with an revisit to Wiseworm's Klingon ships. This time I take his Battle Cruiser out for a run, and realize just how quickly I need to find replacements for those torpedoes.

Just wanted to chime in and say those are some excellent ships. You would not think a Battle Cruiser with both Cloaking and Artillery could be fragile. You'd be wrong. Fun ships.

[5thHorseman]

Time to showcase my own mod, The Enforcer! Yeah, beaming Zoltans onto an enemy ship seems like a great idea...

Re: Kestrel

Arrr, if ye be needin' missiles, eight be a good deal. Especially in early sectors where ye don't get much more scrap fer destroyin' the ship.

Oops! I missed this reply the first time. I've updated the link here and on the first post. Thanks!

8 is 8 too many to need, and about 8 too few to have if you actually do need them. The only good missile is a sold missile.

And for the rest of you, see what he's talking about by watching my Kestrel Redemption Run, I promise it'll have an interesting ending

[The Captain]

Yer prejudice be showin'. As long as ye refuse the low-missile offers to get a little more scrap fer upgradin' yer shields an' such, acceptin' surrenders be a good way to accumulate missiles (unless ye be sailin' in a Bulwark - then there's never enough). And don't be fergettin' that a missile could be a bomb if ye can get those weapons. Aye, an Ion Bomb be worth it's weight in scrap.

[5thHorseman]

Aye, an Ion Bomb be worth it's weight in scrap.

...unless you used all those missiles on a crappy Artemis.

Re: AutoCruiser Take Two

Saren was doomed from the start. I don't think I've ever seen you wait for your O2% to go back up between jumps, and you jumped, fought, jumped again, then started another battle. No starting Medbay = Saren doomed.

Yeah poor guy. I still wonder how differently this run'd gone if I'd picked up an Engi instead of a Mantis. He'd have fixed the o2 faster, that's for sure.

[The Captain]

Doesn't matter if the O2 is fixed if you don't power it. Maybe an Engi/Zoltan hybrid would do the trick.
