Oh oh me me....

I would have to go with the Gaitori Gunship. You can ussually circle the enemy while pumping out those Torps without being hit, and you can do some mean strafing strikes agaisnt larger ships with the rapid gun. Needs a bit more speed though :-p.

Oh and Italian Poles are the longest.

Val: Yeah, I love those atomic pulsers. They hurt. The Gunship just needs the added speed and lots of extra armor to make it a born killer.

Salrilian Carrier, ph00lz.

10 of the most annoying (and powerful) fighters in the game.

Powerful projectile.

Throws more lightning bolts than Zeus. Posted Image

Not to mention its a gigantic black mass, thus the intimidation factor is quite significant.

Ah, I remember the first time I saw a Salrilian Carrier. What level was that? 13, 14? Anyways, When I saw it on LR radar I wasn't sure what it was, then it showed up on my screen and started throwing lighting at me. I nearly wet my pants. Man that was scary. I was screaming like a girl. But now I know that the real power lies in the escorts.

Vegeta: Those Salrilian Fighters are annoying... Hard to hit, and good firepower. I find the Audemedon Fighters more annoying, however.

Brookeview: Never really saw what your vote was, though I'm guessing it's the enhanced Ishiman Heavy Cruiser.

Salrilian Carrier freaked me out the first time I saw it as well. The large, dark feel of it was extrememly antimidating...

This may seem kinda silly, but I like the Ishiman Assault Transports. If only they had a warp, then, I ,for one, would rather use one of these babies than the standard cruiser or gunship. Plus, they look really cool, with those tails.

I get very antimidated when I see a huge Carrier against my lone, small ship. Salrilian Gunships, on the other hand, are only intimidating...

Salrilian Fighters have to be the best fighter in my book. Yes, Audemedon fighters are slightly tougher and have a more powerful beam cannon, but the Salrilian Fighters have longer range (which, for the survivability of a fighter, is much more important) and are a lot harder to see and hit than the bright orange Aud craft (and have just about the same amount of shields).

Tell me about it! I hardly ever look at my shields, but Posted Image

That Carrier and its escorts sure didn't take long to destroy my Heavy Destroyer, That's for sure. That was 13, by the way. I know mainly beacause it took me about 20 tries to pass it.

For some reason, seeing that Salrilian carrier didn't frighten me. Should it have?

Salrillian gunship is by far the best.

When I first saw the Sal carrier, I just thought, "Oh, a big black thing. That means it's some sort of really really powerful bad guy."

Cantharan Gateship

What can i say? It can kill every ship in the game 1on1 after all, and even when you kill it it just jumps out of the system.

Somehow, I just think that a huge, dark sausage that throws lightning is enough to alarm some people.
Call me dense, but what's a Troubadour?

No, u don't get to pilot one. But, in level 12, you have the option of piloting an Obish Battleship. It has the same weaponsas an Ishiman Carrier(no launch bay), but is a bit less clumsy.
I don't hate you, by the way Posted Image

. It took me a while to get $$$$ too. A tip: Until you've registered, stay away from the bars. If you do go in the bars, don't say you havn't registered.

I don't have the faintest idea why I just wrote that

1400+ at last tally.

I liked the Obish battleship. That thing could take a pounding and deal out a hellaovalotta pain before it went down. If it went down. If you knew how to pilot at all it shouldn't go down. With a couple of gunships and cruisers for backup that thing made the perfect flagship. I wish I could've piloted some more ships like it. That Bazindanese jalopy just didn't have the same oomph.

I like the Bazidanese one better, because I love shooting randomly and still hitting something. It's true that the Obish one had a better combo of weapons, but a homing pulse, in my opinion, is better that a Cruisemissle. Please change my vote to Bazidanese Battleship. I hadn't gotten to that level(whatever it was) when I voted Assault Trasnport(which I do still like better than standard cruisers). Hey, don't look at me in that tone of voice.

Admiral– I may have given you false info. In level 10, I think you have a choice of piloting some Obish Escorts, or a Heavy Cruiser. Usually, you'll be using a Carrier to pass this level.

Also- If/when you register, there is a plugin called The Iron Fist. It's entirely Obish-vs.–Gaitori. You play as Obish. Don't get this plugin until you've passed most of factory Ares. It's quite difficult.

Please don't Scream at me for posting this here, I know this might not be the best place.
