    I'm a simple man. I got a Reclaimer and a Ironclad Assault and 1 more LTI token I'll keep to see if I fall in love with any other large ship until launch, otherwise it'g gonna be slowly CCIed into a Connie Taurus, the most practical medium daily driver I played so far, or even a Zeus for the smaller size. The reclaimer MIGHT become an Arrastra later if I love the gameplay loop, but I really like the fact it's a named ship, I feel this should be the case for all large + ships.
    I want to feel that LTI working, that's why I'm using it in large ships mostly.

      @@DataSwami I feel the Ironclad is the ONE expensive ship I'll often put in risk. over 1000 SCU uf cargo, a repair bay, this thing will be the one I bring if I manage to play with friends to be the centerpiece of any large scale activity.
      Otherwise, I'll just use it as a really cool looking hauler, unless they make it REALLY expensive to operate. Other than the turrets it only needs a crew of 2, and even 1 if you use the tractor beam while landed, so there is that...

    You have some HUGE ships mate.
    I remember back when they opened up for the Carrack pre pledges. It was still a concept. Chris did a live stream and I asked him if it could be flown solo. If I can solo a ship, I will buy it. If I have to organise half a dozen friends to be available for the same time slot, then no. Let's face it, most people would rather fly their own ship than sit at a engineer console pushing shields back and forth or doing nothing all night.
    Until we can have AI bots or blades or some such automation, I don't see the bigger ships as being viable. Especially two or three years in, when the initial sheen has worn off, gathering a crew will be super hard.

      @@Ben_D. So I believe that's where orgs come in for the bigger ships. That's the way I'm going with it but also with friends to man some of the biggish ships as it's more we are doing an activity rather than just flying a ship. But then plenty of people love those other "job sim" games so certain people will love it. I know a lot of people looking forward to just cargo running in it's new guise. So I have my solo pottering around ships but bigger ships for both resource gathering and some elements of combat

    Nice fleet! I went with 315p as a pathfinder, small smuggling ship. Hornet mkII for a fighter. Freelancer MIS as a support ship/escort. Currently have a Redeemer but i'm just waiting to upgrade that to the Endeavour to research blueprints/other science stuff. Galaxy for base building, hauling and probably some combat. 600i for exploration. Arrastra and Reclaimer as money makers. The flagship is a Merchantman, mobile base, market, large cargo runner.
    My first ever ship was the Aurora LN a long, long time ago.

      Nice. I started off with a Origin 100i starter pack quite a few years ago. I have a similar fleet. Cutter Scout - as a small scouting, go around & have fun in ship.
      C8R - for My medical needs, and it makes a nice little snub that i can carry in other bigger ships. That has a med bed. Its not good for combat, but i just want it.
      The F7C Hornet MK II - for my combat ship of choice. I think it will be a great ship in the future, with ample firepower and good all around performance.
      The Zeus MK II ES (debating if i should get the MR instead) for my Medium ship of choice. It was the C1 before, but the Zeuses just .... yeah ....
      The Corsair - Same reasons as Data Swami & also - because it gives me star wars vibes.
      The Galaxy - STAR DESTROYER vibes. Also a great all around ship. It just promises to do too much to pass up.
      The Arrastra - Money maker, 1 stop mining ship.
      The BMM - My end game ship, whatever happens with it, happens. I will be glad to fly mine with my friends when it is released.

      Yes i have done my missions, i suggest you push to do yours as well :)
      I believe that after the F8A Lightning, the F7A Hornet MK II will be THE premier fighter.
      My reasoning is simple - a LOT of guns. 2 of which are size 4.
      I love using the ballistic guns on the hornet, it simply melts targets!
      Avenger_One is also quite happy with it, so if he approves of it, who am i to say the hornet is bad?? I also quite like how it flies so i am happy to keep one in my fleet.
      Long story short - its a good, capable dog fighter, with 2 big hard points and a good profile. The Military F7A MK II is going to be meta in the future. Even in MM.
      I am thinking of a loadout with x4 Singe 3 cannons and x2 Deadbolt cannons or Revenant gatlings for PvE - thats 6k alpha damage.....
