Subject: FT: taking my Maneuvering 101 final
So I'm ready to take my Maneuvering 101 final, professor Ohlson. Will this
ship design do? Mass 184, MD6, FTL, weak hull (37), 12 armor, 6 PDS, 4 FC,
1 superior sensor, 2 class-1 beams, 12 pulse torpedoes (F),
poinsts 642 (using my winged defender miniature so each 'claw' has 6 torps). I
have smaller twin (I made 2 SSDs) siblings with 4 torps and 4 B1s as escort,
mass 84, points 280. Also, I have its big brother in case we go large, 20
torps, mass 294, points 1010 (each 'claw' is double taloned 5x2 torps {grin}).
I designed some MD8 ships, but I figure MD6 is sufficient against MD2 ships.
Tonight, maybe Tuesday, will be my last chance to take down the mighty Steve
ship.:)
Although I have done it before but usually with MD4, 3-arced torp
ships. Get to range, get initiative, blast away, not much maneuvering
required.
This is also my last chance at a shot of the "Who rolls the most 1s" honors,
although I really hope to lose that chance big time.:)
