Oh, that really ugly "Posidean" starship

Ohh... that ship I posted? I guess I must not have an agreeable taste in ships... I was hoping to suggest some new vessel. What about this Romulan scout?

Classification: Scout/Fighter
Class Name: Ael'Vurli (War Hawk) Class
Crew Complement: 2
Arrayments:
4x Compressed Pulsed Disruptor Emmiters (Fore)
1x Beam Disruptor Emmiter (Fore)

Flt Ops Impulse Speed: 95

A scout with 2 crew but 5 weapons? Actually if it was cheap and had zero durability and short range might be quite fun to swarm them, but I don't see them going in the game.

Here's a tip Gamer, if you want a ship in game, mod it in yourself, because the Devs have a very definitive list of the ships they are going to add, especially the models etc. The only suggestion I'v seen them take is the New Orleans, and thats a canon ship. If you can find a role that you think is missing in a faction without stealing another's thunder, go right ahead

Well, this could be somewhere between a Talon and a shrike. How about these stats?

Offensive: 10
Defensive: 7
System: 8

- 2x Compressed Pulsed Disruptors (Deals moderate damage to shields, but damage dealt is greatly reduced when hitting a hull with a defensive value higher than 16)
  - 1x Experimental Beam Disruptor (Deals increased damage to ships with 3 times its own offensive value or higher)
- Cloaking Device
- Collision (Diverts all remaining power to the engines for a collision with an enemy target, shield strength is greatly reduced)
- War Grade engines (Passive: Chances of lossing engines to system disable is reduced by 30% of standard chances)

- Short

---

- 1x Experimental Beam Disruptor (Deals increased damage to ships with 3 times its own offensive value or higher)

I'm sure that couldn't hurt too much, after all, it can't last long against a late game ship can it? Besides, the devs can put a price that would make a shrike or leahval seem a better choice. That way there are reduced spams of it.

I'd really suggest moving this to another thread, as this isn't the proper place to discuss that 

However, with that said, I'll just state that I'm not really liking the design for a Romulan vessel - what's with the big "windshield"? Or that weird energy stream coming out the back of the cockpit (how do they get to the engines for that matter)? Looks more like some sort of missile to be honest - or some futuristic fighter plane  . Nice ideas for the abilities though

yeah, though it doesn't belong here, I like the current romulan scout, but it would make an ok fighter I guess?

Poseidean class.  Page # 4  , 4 th post on the development  blog. Sorry about  the typo,  hit the letter m instead of n.

Did you even read my post Gamer? Seems like you didn't since you just posted more stats.
