Achilles Aerospace LS

“The power of this new Frame Shift Drive does, however, put immense pressure on a ship when used.”

Don’t forget that the winking cat stole their security robot and Kingsley Cordova blackmailed them into installing surveillance software into their PA912.

How likely would it be that the winking cat “stole” something that Achilles needed in the hands of a “wealthy beneficiary” with influence and competitive intentions?

This is clearly a ploy to get everyone to believe in the legitimacy of the Achilles Aerospace while it collects further information on the pilots federation and the elite pilots federation in order to install itself as a new major power, contesting Sirius itself.

As has often been stated: In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king

What an insult to all those cmdrs that slogged for the alien drive parts to deliver to achillies (Heel) - i lost count of my own demises to thargoids whilst trying to collect these drive parts, only managed to get about 4 or so. Absolutely millions spent in rebuys, all so we ended up being frame "shafted" by this snake oil peddling company to produce something i doubt has been tested, i hope this is real game play and is behaving as intended, well it needs a lot more work on it as yet.
 
Yes what an insult and slog it was going to Taranis to look at the aftermath and to pick up a single titan drive element!

I wonder how the devs think they can get away with such shoddy development.. Everyone that has a minimal idea of couch development clearly understands that it ought to be available as an engineerable class A module with no drawbacks!

P.S. I must have done something wrong as I survived my couple of visits without a rebuy.. :(

I don't know, I quite like it. Yes, the range is VERY poor, it overheats like nobody's business, it guzzles fuel like an alcoholic the drinks at a party, AND the controls are wonky, BUT... THE SPEED AND ACCELERATION. INCREDIBLE. Even a 3-second burst is enough to eat up quite some distance.

The lack of range can be remedied by a Guardian FSD booster (matter of fact, TODAY I finally overcame my laziness and unlocked it!). My combat corvette, whose range was a measly 7.17 light years, now can jump 17.67 light years, thanks to a class 5 FSD booster. I do have a heat sink launcher with five charges equipped, so I can, if need be, use the boost a little longer.

Let's face it, an FSD with much better range, lower heat, great control AND that insane acceleration and speed would have made pretty much all other drives obsolete. As it is, it's a trade-off -- but for my combat ships, this is a fun device that greatly facilitates getting from one massacre site to the next...
