Thargoid Thursday? Nahh! Today is Chieftain Thursday!

[TheSisko]

Looking forward to the stream tonight and Frontier talking about this medium-sized beauty:

Nothing like a new ship to get us Commanders excited*.

* Well, me anyway. All hail the Chieftain! Hallowed are the Lakon! [heart]

 

[tafkabb]

Lakon is bests ships [yesnod]

 

[Adhock]

Honestly Looks like Pelican with extra thrusters.

....WANT.

 

[damon8r351]

Shiny. I hope it's like an Alliance version of the Federal Assault ship. We could use some more pure combat ships that aren't Federal aligned.

Without doubt the galaxy's premier shipbuilders. And I say that as a big fan of Gutamaya hardware.

I'll even forgive Lakon for the whole T7/Medium pad nonsense.

 

[Lightspeed]

Still no paint jobs for it - honestly FD, you have so many for the Cobra, yet none for this ship. What are you thinking? [noob]

 

[Mrat13]

Shiny. I hope it's like an Alliance version of the Federal Assault ship. We could use some more pure combat ships that aren't Federal aligned.

Needs an SLF too. We need more ships to launch fighters with.

It's still Wednesday here. But I am very excited to get some sweet, sweet Chieftain details soon.

I really hope the hardpoint grouping is close enough that I can put 3 small rails on it.

I was thinking this at work earlier!

2 APAs 3 small rails and mabe a med rail or missile rack.

Roll on the 25th! #hot build

Nah. Faulcon DeLacy. Followed by Gutamaya.

Looking forward to the Chieftan, though! I think that may well be my next ship.

 

[Mengy]

I'm looking forward to finding out if it's more than just a combat ship. I'm hoping that it is.

 

[Vasious]

I'm looking forward to finding out if it's more than just a combat ship. I'm hoping that it is.

Followed by the "kick in the teeth" comment when the proposed combat ship isn't the explorer demanded?

 

[Bryan K]

If she’s as good in a fight as she looks I’ll be very happy indeed. Better start saving my credits now.

You mean the same nonsense that the Clipper suffers from?

 

[Razar]

It does look nice. I wouldn't mind getting one. I have the Type 10 now (not for fighting but because I like the way it looks), but don't fly it yet. I am saving up for the rebuy cost and to A-grade it. But this thing, if this one handles better in turns than the Type 10, then I might sell it for this ship. I like the looks of it better.

New to the game, but how often do they come out with new ships? I have seen 2 in so few months. Is this regular, or is this rare?

Razar.

 

[damon8r351]

Yes please. Something in a medium ship that's not the Keelback and isn't rank locked like the FGS.

 

[Stressfest]

Looks like one of those water strider insects.

 

[Mangal Oemie]

This Alliance CMDR is hyped, and committed to work around any limitations it undoubtedly somehow will have. This almost certainly will be my new combat ship.

 

[kofeyh]

I'm looking forward to finding out if it's more than just a combat ship. I'm hoping that it is.

Spot the ever hopeful explorer who knows the kick in the <censored> is coming, but damnit, still lives in hope. I hope a lot for it too. I'm just bracing for the hot-mess that we'll get instead. I've never wanted to be more wrong.

 

[Mugur]

The Chieftain is made by the same people that brought you Type 10... What could go wrong? [where is it]

I mean Lakon&Alliance, of course.
