Shiny ships.

Just wondering if any CMDR has traded in their old ship for the Fer de Lance, and their thoughts on it up to yet?

Pretty simple

Pros - Fast, well shielded, pitches well, great hardpoints, both numbers and placement, high masslock signature

Cons - woeful fuel tank, worse than woeful jump range, reasonably power limited, next to no additional module space, weak directional thrusters.

Edit: overall if you don't want to travel, its probably the best raw combat ship, however if you enjoy versatility at all it isn't for you, its extremely limited in actual gameplay due to the tiny jump/fuel tank.

Ya that jumprange will keep me from getting it. In my ship progression I could not stand ships with teeny-weeny little jumpers. But that's just me and everyone has that one stat they really focus on Even got rid of the clipper because of it

So far the only ships I really like are the Asp and Anaconda.

I knew it was a heavy fighter but thought it might be usable as a well armed multi purpose ship. Surely the bad points can be made better with upgrades with expensive outfitting. Thanks for the Heads up.
