« on: February 08, 2023, 04:08:21 PM »Goathead Aviation Bureau
Original mod by Mimeio(Original Fossic post)
"The friction between speed and firepower makes sparks in the shining Sector. Welcome to the Goathead Aviation Bureau."
Download link for translated ver: Google Drive
Requires LazyLib, MagicLib, GraphicsLib
Faction blurb:
After a lengthy evacuation process, the Aviation Bureau eventually settled in two restored orbital stations, located in the Taivassija system south-west of the Core Worlds. Their ships are roughly analogous to "midline" design philosophy: tending towards high firepower and/or speed, but most ships lack solid armor and shields (there are exceptions, of course).
