does a prometheus ship need shield inversion tech? i mean the prometheus is a fleet of 3 ships in one so i guess it can defend itself very good

but if you read what pepal have posted its not posabule to sperate the perthes easly and it will not seprate in fo. so the prometheus will need uther wepinds insed.

You could just give it a manouver that uses special energy that increases it's fire power by x3 for a few secs

but it still has the fire power of 3 ships so i don't think it need alot of special weapons

it doesn't have the firepower of 3 ships, it is a heavily armed ship that can split into 3 parts. that means that it's total firepower is split 3 ways. there is a difference ya know. it's main advantage of splitting is it gives the enemy more targets to shoot. it doesn't gain any firepower doing this it's just that the firepower comes from 3 directions

Actually it does have the firepower of 3 ships, it just depends on which 3 ships your talking about.

the way roach was talking it sounded like he meant that when it split it had the firepower of 3 prometheus'. so no it doesn't. only one of the sections has torpedoes, the other 2 sections only have phasers, so those 2 sections do not have the equivlent firepower of another fed ship

Yes they do, they have the equivelant firepower of 3 sabers, at least. Use your head.

sabers on trek are equipped with torps giving them more firepower overall.
all fed ships are equipped with torps (well can't think of any that don't anyway so) and before you say the sabers in fo you can't compare because prometheus ain't in fo just yet

I just did idiot. All 3 of the separate parts of the prometheus have firepower equal to or moreso of 3 saber class ships.

well if the firepower is split i want to know if the shield strength is split aswell, if so then the whole seperation is a bit useless

Use your head, the prometheus essentially splits into 3 warp capable ships all with their own shields and weapons and crew.

well info if the prometheus is put in it won't split because that can't be done on this game, so basically shut up about it cos it will be nothing more than a another battle ship for the feds. huh idiot my ass

BTW is it possible for you to post something without calling anyone anything.?? whats up with that.

accually, i think that it is possible and that someone over at armada2files did it...

no someone claimed to have done it, but it didn't work quite right. it split fine but when you try to reintergrate it it just splits into more sections of the ship. keep clicking on the reintergration button and you'll soon find that your screen becomes a mass of prometheus sections it's a shame because that would add an interesting element to the feds gameplay
