Best ship?

[hzh]

In your opinion, the best ship in the game?

[POGFISH]

Best ship I've had so far is the Tennhauser. "Best" is entirely subjective.

So far my favorite has been the Icarus for speed and maneuverability.

This one is probably my favorite. It's such a sexy beast. I also have a soft spot for the starter ship. She looks like a sports car <3

I like to sit as far away from the action as possible and ♥♥♥♥ all over everything. The Blackgate has been doing that pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ well.

barracuda

I've not got very far in yet but I have to say I'm loving the performance of the Icarus. I've been using it to break sieges and it's an absolute beast.

Ok., so it helps that I got a bit lucky with some weapon drops (mining laser Mk2 is great against fighter-class ships) while scavenging containers but still...it's very quick.

Not totally sold on the looks, mind. I was thinking about swapping it out for a Tennhauser.

How does the Sorcerer compare to the Blackgate?

Tennhauser is awesome, preferred the Barracude; but you are correct, best is entirely subjective & highly dependent on your combat style, current strategy and mission types.

For example, if you like to drop yourself into the middle of a fight... *BSG Spoiler* I'm thinking how Lee Adama dropped the Pegasus into the middle of the rescue mission fight in Exodus Part II... you'll want a Blackgate sized beast with Ramming Deflectors. Barracuda or Tennhauser hull would be shred to pieces once those shields go down; which they will :P

However, if you're all about the guerrilla style, hit & run, smuggling & dead dropping mission... You want to be like Mal flying Serenity in Firefly (man I miss that show), Tennhauser or Barracuda are your ships. Also I think the Barracuda looks more like the Firefly (but not really).

Most importantly, try out all sorts of different ships, loadouts, etc. What I love about Rebel Galaxy is that you buy & sell at the same price (or at least I think you do??). Although this isn't realistic, is much needed in so many games. I hate having to save & reload multiple times because I spent a fortune upgrading my ship/character/etc. only to find out that the description or stats don't line up well with my current ship, playing style, etc.

I'm running a Barracuda with MK6 equipment and mining lasers, ion flak, and laser broadsides ( forgot the name of them). I'm the fastest thing around and sitting pretty for the rest of the game. I'm tinking of using this for the rest fo the game.

my second play through will be all about the dreadnaughts.

Love the its speed and maneuverability.

Agreed! Love the Barracuda. I tried some of the dreadnoughts and didn't get the same enjoyment. I mean, it looks cool seeing all the turrets firing together but still not as cool as stick handling a fire fight.

Hammerhead.... Can't help but love the Serenity vibes I get from the ship itself. Not to mention, it's funny when I break through supposedly better ships with it.

It would be tough to finish the game with the Hammerhead though, no? Assuming you upgraded everything (hull, shields, cargo, etc.), the only limitation would be the turrets and broadsides. As long as you never bit off more than you could chew, you could probably squeeze by.
