Suggestions / Re: Atlas MK II, Prometheus MK II, and Buffalo MK II

I was experimenting, yes. I think the Atlas MK II would be an excellent support ship for slow combat speed fleets like low tech fleets, especially outmatched ones with already existing anchors like Dominators/Onslaughts. My fleet is essentially high speed low drag right now, so slower ships look really bad because they rarely get to the fight when it matters/before it's over.

I agree that Atlas MK IIs aren't great. Given that, would dropping the Atlas/Prometheus MKIIs' fuel per light year to 6 like the regular Atlas/Prometheus be unreasonable?

I recently took frontal shield conversion off my Radiant to make it more aggressive. Before, it would retreat in the face of annihilator or squall fire (but would vent slightly out of range and take some armor hits anyways). Without, it still sorta backs off, but is a lot more willing to keep fighting.

It would be great if some non-phase ships could also have quantum disruptors. Perhaps a Tempest variant? Or a quantum disruptor missile that can hit regular targets and phased targets if not shot down by PD?

I added more of the data I collected and summarized to the first post. It begins at "More Data".

I think Ludd was an AI plant.

Hmm... I set up a Steady Conquest with long range weapons and one dual flak, and it still likes to go to 1000 range or so, presumably to fire the dual flaks at the enemy. The dual flak is in its own group and removing the dual flak removes the behavior. Would I need to get a cautious officer/go without PD to get the Conquest to stay at range? Putting the dual flaks on the other side also did not work.

Any plans on loading it to Youtube?

Yep, I want to bring a couple ships with two Accelerated Ammo Feeder Gauss Cannons and two ECCM Hurricanes to battle for 24 DP each. Would be interesting I think. Going to 6 fuel/LY like regular Atlas and regular Prometheus would help.
