thank you very much, that's fixed it
now wondering if I should build a space truck for future CGs.
given uncertain times in the galaxy, perhaps a T10 Defender?!
(also might need to level up my DBX fsd a bit, so it can be a quicker space taxi)
Thanks for the intel; have not done a CG in a long while - had a senior moment. o7 Cmdr

You haven't missed out as this was a GLOBAL reward, ie available for purchase to everyone whether they took part or not.
Even I can get one and I didn't take part in the CG (and I don't do combat - at least not in ships
)

So, the Enhanced MC have (in parenthesis the original 3E values):
power draw - 0.69MW (0.64)
damage per second - 8.7 (8.4)
damage - 1.4 (1.3)
shot speed - 4000 (1600)
exactly my reaction when i've seen the stats - i expected a more noticeable increase
You don't consider this noticeable:
shot speed - 4000 (1600)
IIRC that's what everyone was clamouring for in order to get those guns to actually hit anything.
I had no problems killing scouts with normal ax mc nor to kill cyclops
sure, the extra shot speed will help a bit nailing scouts at a longer distance, but that is a non-issue
They're turreted so unless you run them in forward fire mode (and why would you, when there's a CG for fixed ones right now) you don't have to aim them, so the shot speed isn't very important.
Yeah just had a go with them over at Wakata Station - good for Scouts, useless for a Basilisk.
The projectile velocity increase is nice, but that Armor Piercing needs to be greatly increased for them to be useable against Interceptors.

indeed
best used on a Conda, in the top large hardpoints
watching those turrets tracking the scouts and firing - one of the most impressive sights
they do look awesome and they have no spool up time.
if you manage to scan the interceptor (or someone in the wing does) they do nicely tracking the hearts.
otherwise, fixed large mc are twice as better as the turreted version
I think you're thinking of Gauss cannons. I've never had a problem whacking scouts with AX cannons.
I guess the question now is: Where can we get them? They're not listed on EDDB or INARA at all.
Those big blue icons on the galaxy map you may have turned off.. are rescue mega ship locations.. they are station class landable megaships
Extra edit strange enough they dont have rescue in there name....

Well done all who participated.

Thanks!
I just struggled to take out a Cyclops with a Clipper full of them and two other NPCs assisting. I think I understand why there are so many complaints about how difficult the Interceptors are now...
