Ships The Imperial Clipper, for all your Imperial needs

View attachment 32194

The Imperial Clipper is the quintessential Imperial ship. It epitomises elegance of form while delivering speed and agility. Because of its balance of Speed, Luxury and strength it is used for transporting valuable items and personnel of importance across the Empire.


The one and only, the Imperial Clipper, such a sexy beast, this thread is not only here to kickstart the new forum section, but because our beautiful bird of prey soaring through space is damn worth it.

Pics, pros, cons, design, armament, you name it. As long as we're speaking of that beautiful Gutamaya made ship that is the Imperial Clipper !

Remember, you don't need to run all gimbals on the Clipper.

i just hit baron a couple days ago now i just gotta grind the cash and a bit more for this amazing ship, fell in love with it the second i saw a screenshot of it.

i can not wait for more ships by this magnificent manufacturer, especially that courier ^_^
 
Definitely next on my ship list...I've got enough credits to purchase and decently start to kit out, but I gotta sit down and grind on those Empire missions. I'm currently a serf...lotta grinding ahead.
 
I agree, such a beauty indeed!

Even when I have enough money to upgrade to those more powerful ships, I will still stick to my clipper!

Haven't taken mine on a photo tour yet, here it is leaving the station for the first time I think. Dare I say although I love the curves, I'm not a fan of the default white paint job. The only colour pack available isn't that inspiring either. Still debating getting it...
 
I've got one. Haven't used it as I can't really afford to outfit her properly yet and my Asp is better suited to my next project ( a Sag A run.) If it hadn't been for the discount I would have waited, but at that price the choice between a Clipper or a Type 7 was a no brainer.
 
Well this is my load out. The beam and cannons work great. I can use full beam all the time. if I use the cannons more them 4 in a row it will start over heating.

I have a advanced scanner too. May go for a power plant ,thrusters then bulk head.
 
Ha anyone traded out of their clipper? I see the Python has decent specs, but, I just cannot bring myself to sell my clipper. I'm shallow and admit it!
 
I'm using mine mainly as a trader at the moment. In my current configuration I think I have 216T cargo space although it should be possible to squeeze a little more out if you went pure trader config.

How do you config your internals slots, is it like this or something different?
Cargo rack x128
Cargo rack x64
Cargo rack x16
Shield Generator, in a class 4 slot
Cargo rack x8
Cargo rack x8
Cargo rack x4
Cargo rack x4
 
232T or 216T is the trader I use, the latter is with a scoop for going distances when relocating normally.

Something like that. I have exploring scanners in the two smallest slots which could be replaced with more cargo space, but I was doing one of the published long trading routes and exploring along the way.
