Disclaimer; not a rant, or request, just some thoughts on them!
Sometimes, I forget why we even have military slots on ships.
My Chieftain, and Challenger, are both currently used for PvP, and/or AX.
So those 3 military slots are being used nicely for hull reinforcements. No problems here...
I just got back from an extended exploration trip in my Anaconda. Over a month of flying in it and the first thing I choose to do when I get back is get started on my Vette grind by doing some combat missions in Rhea and so I switched from ExploraConda to my "Heavy" (lol) Combat Challenger. Its...
I am looking to try my hand at some bounty hunting to start, and I am wondering if you fine folks could give me some suggestions for current builds for folks just starting out.
That is to say, just stock equipment. No guardian or engineered stuff. I've not yet started unlocking those things...
After having spent a bit of time with the Alliance ships, i have come to realize that while they might not be very remarkable, being very comparable to Federal ones.. they are not BAD ships. The Chieftain has a really good blend of speed, agility and firepower, while the Challenger gets a good...
Even as someone who is not particularly a hardcore combat pilot, i can say for sure that i did observe the Alliance ships came and went without much fanfare at all. Since their release, i have barely met anyone who talks about them, hell, i think people barely even acknowledge they exist.

Hey guys, I'm back with another ship building guide! Today we have the Challenger. This a fun ship I use for PVE and PVP. This a common build you find for this ship as well. I personally go with the daka build on it, but you can do as you please. Hopefully you guys enjoy the video and tell me in...

Also precision, vibrant, tactical paints. Or should I wait for the Centurion paints in a couple of weeks :D
So far this ship has been the perfect all rounder for a fairly novice and casual pilot like myself. Now that it's engineered I rarely have to visit the outfitters to tinker with it whenever I feel like switching roles/mission types, which means I'm having much more fun in Elite again.
The...

No, is there a reason I should?
Krait is the same as a Python with unsightly blocky looks that remind me of Lego.
And both my Python's are already engineered - so, there seems to be very little point in new ships that merely mimic existing ships in...
So we now have the Alliance Challenger to play with..
Chieftan Pros:
Very much faster than its new sister
Faster Pitch rates
Has a better Hardpoint vs Distributor ratio
Challenger Pros:
Much more resilliant
Very much smoother to fly, with less twitch
More (potential) DPS
These were the...
