Have any of you ever come across a WC fighter that you would judge as TOO maneuverable for its own good?

Is this similar to the gun thingies under the Vampires and Panthers' noses?

The crappiest fighter in the game series would have to be those Nephilim Lamprey's. How pathetic are THOSE things? I usually just fly straight in, guns blazing... Easiest things to kill, and I'd think they'd be nearly impossible to survive piloting.

They're no interceptors, the Squid is the Nephilim's interceptor.

Never really thought of any as too maneuverable, but it always took me a few minutes to readjust to a Vampire after flying a mission in a Devastator.

those stupid scims! they are everywhere! I mean, they're so old they had them before the war, so just imagine with all the costs how much they built! they're cheap, half effective, slow, sluggish. meaning they wont cost much for maintenance and they'll do the job, hopefully. thats why we say theres too many damn scimitars in this world
hehehe

Don't let Supdon fool you. The Scimm's a gun-heavy slug. Forget finesse...just head straight in, guns blaring. Give me a ship that takes skill... A Raptor, even a Hornet...or one of those new Rapiers... If half of what they say is true, the Rapier's a true artist's ship!

The only good thing of the Scim. was the 2 mass cannon, she is slow and has not much maneuverability

Yeah that was a nice add, i liked the ship, until i went on a raptor, scim just looks ugly...

Why? 'Cause their cost effective?
Cost-effectiveness is supposedly the same argument for the existence of Hellcats and corvettes.

Oh, no, I absolutely hate the Scrimitar. Slow, heavy gun slug...
I liked it a bit after flying a Hornet, especially when I saw those Dralthi explode after I emptied the gun capacitors...but then I started trying to manuver. Ugh...

Speaking of phasing the Scim out, anyone else remember in SM2? (Maybe 1, it's been a while) where Halcyon announced that the Scim was offically being retired. There was cheering for a very good reason. Personally, I'll take a Hornet over a Scim anyday. Try taking the losing track all the way to Chengdu, you'll face a few Gratha there, beat it, and you'll wind up in Brimstone. Just tell me which is easier: fighting Gratha in Hornets with Angel, or fighting them in Scims with Maniac?
