Gorith

[animus]

When I bought my Narn ships, my dealer threw in 6 bases of Gorith fighters. Now, I have a lot of them. A lot.

I can't see any advantage of using them over the Frazi though. Does anyone use Gorith's?

If e-mines weren't so effective, they would have a use but otherwise no unless taking a fleet without e-mines. Get into dogfights with them & support with frazi's.

They actually have a vague chance of dogfighting someone?
I have used them before as a small fighter screen, but will usually rely on e-mines

They will survive slightly longer against weapons where Dodge is a factor.

Target is spot on. In any other fleet they're decent dogfighters. E-Mines are too effective versus fighters though.

I'm sure that will be adressed, Matt said something about e-mines becoming sexy.... with the new apparantly starwars AF ship trait, I suspect E-Mines may change dramatically into something not effective against fighters. Mind you he said the narn would get something cool in SFOs many moons ago, and what they got was severely downgraded e-mines. who knows, it's all a mystery.

Only if you play against Narn

Next month's S&P will have an expose on the development of 2e, including what has happened to Energy Mines. . .

What fleet does katadder play :lol:

That was first question that sprung up to my mind reading katadder's post.

Has "some" impact on how to intepret his post.

Yeah, Katadders post worries me too, does it mean E-mines are now back to their rightul place as ass wooping weapons, or do they now have a 1" radius, and bulkhead on a 1-4....
