Folks, that was one heck of a good fight, my thanks to the folks at CGI who hooked us all up with the simulations. In the same vein of Jerry over at Jenga let me give my thoughts of the other frames up for the contest.
-I might want to turn down the music when flying, I don't even notice the Gatling cannon anymore.
-Wasp: Sweet goddesses this thing can move, hits decently but you better be able to dodge or else
-Trident: It was difficult to maneuver until I remembered the bloody thing doesn't fly like a air breather, after that it was like the death blossom scene from "The Last Starfighter". Guns were decent, and the armor was decent but only for a couple of hits it seemed.
-Viper: Maybe as a frigate or a light destroyer but not as a light fighter, sorry.
all in all, a good time and I would love to see a repeat IRL when things are built. The Bat already has a second built, what's keeping you slowpokes.
