What do Centauri Players Want?
- Thread starter Apachex
- Start date
SAP for AP for Vorchan.
Haven gets at least 8 crew, weapon ranges go to the usual for the same type of weapons.
Kutai gets new stats possibly a Olympus style with turreted big gun, Torps. We don't need another fast attack ship.
Amar either more flights or more firepower.
Morgrath plasma stream becomes TD
Demos has tourney load out, speed 14 and slight increase in hits.
Prefect loses some hits, maybe 25 hits.
Balvarian loses some hits, about 40 but gets carrier 2, maybe intceptors 1?
Tertius loses some beam dice, keeps the same crew as a primus not huge 75 it has currently.
Rutarians come standard on the Dargan & Balvarix.
Sentri becomes speed 14 or 15
Don't know about the Liati as never used it. I'll let others decide.
Everything else seems allrightish.

Want to see the Vorchan become a more common ship. Up its weapon load or give it a bunch of abilities.
Few more heroic personalities (Earth have like 5-6)
Tweaking of the Haven and Tertius so the Haven is useable, and the Tertius is an alternative and not replacement to the Primus.
Less beams and more emphasis on the incredible pow-pow firepower of Centauri vessles.

Since the Haven is played up as an escort/patrol ship, stat it accordingly. It needs a major boost as it's quite possibly the crappiest ship in the game.
I like the idea of a reworked Kutai as a big flying gun.
Downgrade the Tertius(it's just too powerful).
Ditto for the Prefect.
Boost the Vorchan. It's the iconic Centauri ship and needs to actually be useful. Probably by upgunning it. I like the idea of it basically being a nasty group of weapons on a somewhat fragile but maneuverable hull. Maybe it warrents a Dodge 6+?
I'd like to actually have a use for a Balvarian. Lower it's crew/damage perhaps and give it Carrier 3?

Upgrade all Vorchan varients including the Dusk Coutari.
Make the Liati more survivable. It fills its whitestar killer role well (at least looking at the chances of it killing a whitestar in a turn or two) but I am not sure it will survive if there are any heavy hitters in the area.
Do more to differentiate the Primus varients. I use all 3, often together in bigger fights but there is a little too much overlap.
Give us models for the space station and the satellite.

Actually, that is the problem of the Liati, it has its role and that is to kill White Stars, though I also think that the ship is ugly.
My suggestion is to rid ourselves of the Liati and use the Dargan as the White Star killer. The hull exists and why not used the hull with upgraded weapons. Bump the Dargan to battle level and give it anti-fighter weapons it needs to kill White Stars.
I would also like to see the iconic ships get a boost.

Upgrade the Vanilla Vorchan and Demos. Dont even THINK about upgrading the Dusk Coutari. Seriously if you think THAT needs to be BETTER then I want some of what your taking!
Vorchan: same states but give it a wepons upgrade:
Particle Accelerators: 5 AD 15" SAP DD, Twin Arrays: 8 AD 10"
Demos: Same weapons and stats as the Vorchan above, but Give it Hull 6 and the Balistic Torps: 30" 4 AD SAP DD P SL (or drop teh Precise and give it TD).
Overall--add 2" to the range of all twin arrays--giving most a 10" range.

Yes. The Vorchan doesn't need a huge upgrade. It's meant to be a pack hunter, and I've seen a pack of 4 cripple a Hyperion by themselves (a Centurion finished it off, shortly before the Nemesis killed everything). They're meant to use speed and mobility to zoom around out of range before swooping in at some fragile arc to wreak havoc and zoom out again sharpish. I would perhaps increase the damage very slightly, or give it a Dodge 6+ as already suggested, but then we do run the risk of "balancing" the game by gradually making everything more and more powerful *cough*40K*cough*, which just ends up getting a little bit bland.

I want us to be what we used to be!
I want it all back, the way it was!
Does that answer your question Mr. Morden?

So long as it's only the underpowered units that get improved (and only up to the "average" level) then all would be fine. It's overreaction that causes this problem.CheesyRobMan said:
For the record, 40K has mostly solved this problem now and is entering a period of maturity. Let's just hope ACtA doesn't take this long too.
Off the top of my head, I'd like to see Carrier 2 on the Blavarin. Super AP on the Vorchan's accelerator would be really nice, but not essential. And doing something to either the Morgrath's Plasma Stream (or the Darkner's Battle Lasers). It's a ship I do not tend to use as the Darkner has a better beam, Maximus is better at fleet support and the Vorchan is better at assault. Perhaps the Morgath is just too jack-of-all trades, and master of none.

I'm not going to comment on ships stats as 1) it's getting old and 2) the playtest Centauri for v2 look very cool!
However I'd like a new model for the Liati definitely
