Useful Buffalo
« on: August 27, 2012, 08:04:28 PM »
What the title says, a new buffalo that has a true use. :D
New version with Carrier implementation!  One flight deck at the cost of two small missiles, and the medium replaced with a small. :)

Looks pretty sweet though it doesn't seem to quite fit the aesthetic of any of the other ship designs (flight deck is oddly colored) though maybe that is just my recollection and I am entirely wrong.  Do you have any of the stats decided on for it yet (the lack of a shield is another of the main killers for the buffalo mk II.

Flight deck taken from Condor, no color changes.  My only gripe about it (and I't's a pain to change now) is that the top of the flight deck is slightly over the edge of the armor. ::)

All stats more or less the same as the buffalo mk.II.  Lack of weapons might mean it gets a frontal shield generator, but I'm not too sure yet.

In short, if you throw a stone out of the rear window of your spaceship you will go faster.

Does this make the Condor obsolete? :P

The best use of a buffalo: Sell it and buy a condor. Or recommission it as an ad hoc fireworks display.
