If Fury ends up on the high-tech bundle, then it will likely be the "com mon" high-tech cruiser warship. Falcon is on the midline bundle, after all. It would be nice for the player to have a more warlike high-tech cruiser if the high-tech bundle is the first bundle he finds. Wolf, Shrike, and Apogee are really lean. As for sub-capital carrier, it would be nice to get one just to add to the high-tech bundle if found first. Low-tech and midline bundles are good. High-tech bundle is kind of lame.
Not fond of Plasma Burn on AI ships. It is okay on an Odyssey playership, but for the AI, it can mean suicide by burning into the middle of a mob. It is okay on Shrike because it is somewhat cheap and disposable, especially the pirate version that has the hybrid. (I prefer the pirate version for conventional brawling, just wished it had more OP.)
Shrike cannot turn fast enough without either Combat skills or Auxiliary Thrusters.
In short, PB is a system for apex predator, not for prey.
With the way AI uses it, Odyssey becomes a prey ship if I try to use loadouts I want to use if I pilot it. Plasma Burn makes AI Odyssey with two plasma cannons more suicidal than Onslaught. Unlike Shrike, Odyssey is not cheap and disposable.
Seems like yet another high-tech ship that can only punch down in a game that entirely revolves around player punching up.
This is my problem with Aurora, with its high 30 DP cost. It seems to work best at hunting and killing small fry, but not very good at killing big ships without Sabot spam, and AI is not very good at using Sabots. I can pilot Aurora and kill some ships, but at its cost, I rather spend a little more DP and pilot either Doom or Onslaught/Conquest/Legion. Even more so for an AI ship.
