Hrm, so was a Banshee once a Confed ship? How cool would have flying a Banshee in Wing 1 been !?

Six big guns looks a lot more menacing than six little holes in the hull, no matter how much firepower comes out of them... think about the Jalthi

I dunno, the WC2 Rapier didn't look so bad. <Imagines take-off scene where Blair gets into the fighter>Originally posted by Mekt-Hakkikt
Agree, the WC1 and WC2 fighters with the long barrels would look extremely "dorkular" when they had little holes or short barrels instead of their long guns.
Capship engagement? Planetary bombardment? I know what you mean, though, they were ridiculously long, and pretty much useless.Originally posted by Mekt-Hakkikt
But I was always amazed that the Ralari, as a destroyer, had fixed barrel weapons.

hmm...probably because I didn't start with them, I don't like alot of the WC1/2 ship designs. There some that are ok, like the Morningstar, Ferret, Epee (hey, it LOOKS good), but the WC3/4 ships are more my style. The WCP ship designs were just "ehh", not terrible, but not good.
