I don't get it ... why bother making stealth bombers for any other race when they are patently inferior to the manticore?? Mant has an extra missle bay - plus an extra mid slot.
Hmmm .. can anyone see any reason to fly any of the others?

Tried fitting that 3rd cruise missile launcher?
I have lvl 4 advanced weapon upgrades, max fitting skills all around, and I run into problems with it.
The Nemesis is faster, has lower signature, and the same slot spread, 16.6% more grid and 6& less cpu. It weighs less, takes more cargo, larger capacitor (higher recharge, but comes down to the same recharge per second, it seems).
Only drawback is that Manticore's damage bonus is on Frigate skill, while Nemesis' bonus is on Cov. Ops.
But yeah. That's why manticore has 3 launchers. ---

i have similar problems fitting those two 280mms on the Hound also.
the other's are inferior in some ways, they do have a few marginal advantages in certain situations. i know for a fact that in PvP the extra base speed of the Hound helps for getting into the desired range before a target moves away.
i've read somewhere a dev state that they will look into rebalancing stealth bombers in the future. |

I don't. The only reason I put a MAPC on mine was so that I could fit a 125mm railgun II.
I don't think you trust, in, my, self-righteous suicide. |

I can fly the Manticore and Purifier. I'm selling my manticores. It's a pain in the ass to fit, it's slow as hell and has really bad cap. I fit 2 bcu's on the purifier. 2 TECH 1 BCU's and I'm doing about the same damage. And it's much easier to fit. Only problem is the damage bonus is on EM. I'll deal.

Edited by: Aba Tor on 27/12/2005 14:52:18 The bigest (edited) problem with the manti is... the price: manticore=20+ mil hound=10 mil (hound + bcu almost as good as manti and waaaay cheaper) I'm confident that i could kill a manticore in a hound (when i get one...me is training min frig lvl5 atm..). The hound is way faster, locks faster and with bcu has almost the same dmg (i didn't do the math so i'm just speculating)
