Ambassador Class , why was the speed knocked down

Monster defence + high speed. My guess is that was considered slightly overboard.

And don't shout the thread title...

Ive been for so long asking to improve weapon's range from short to meadium, and instead it loses speed???????

why so confused? the ambassador is a very useful warpin. a little toning down probably hasnt hurt it much.

Okay the speed is cut back but get something to offset the speed, like meadium range weapons . Being a heavy cruiser, at the least meadium range, i also noticed in the map editor she is listed or at some point is mentioned as a battleship.

Or a heavy defence and a special that amplifies it more...

Lol...  We all know you've got a boner for the Amab, but it can't be perfect .  It's still the best warping you can get in my opinion

boggz is rite about the ambas, everyone should know by now ambas is my favourite warpin, and for good reason, in a mp match its the best warpin you can get, mainly because it has so much going for it to keep it alive for the rest of the game. its still quite fast, has a good passive, has a good special that makes it take more punishment, and it puts out ok damage. if i could pick 3 ships to receive i would always choose 3 ambas, cos they will survive until the end of the game. galaxies are slow and have no defensive passive so die easier. steamies are made of paper, excel 1s are made of mdf, the nebs suffer from the same problem as the galaxy, the teutoereotsomethingburger is slow and short sighted, misses a lot against ships and only comes alone.

Ambas are slower then Galaxys now I think .
And short ranged. Now they are something like the anvil.

Galaxy has a speed of 100, Ambassador is 110. Its speed is still 12 points higher.

But I still love her

And the Ambassador is still amazing  .  It just can't be a game-breaker like it pretty much was.  Against Rom / Klingon especially it was just devastating due to the large size vs. Pulse and HDSG vs. Rhienns.
