Or did the Manticore have 4 launcher hardpoints and now only has 3?

Yup the manticore is worse than the kestrel (was in 2003) - Adaptation is not an excuse for lack of ballance! -

As long as I could remember, the Manticore had 3 launcher hardpoints.
For awhile, the other three races stealth bomber only had 2 launcher hardpoints, however, but they got boosted to 3 awhile ago.

I'm pretty sure it had 4 and the other bombers only had 3 - Adaptation is not an excuse for lack of ballance! -

Edited by: Acinonyx Jubatus on 02/12/2008 22:55:10 Edited by: Acinonyx Jubatus on 02/12/2008 22:49:57 Manticore had 3, other 3 had 2.
This coupled with their specific bonuses lead to the manticore being the only one worthwhile at the time.
I can't remember them, but I believe the manticore had the damage bonus from the get go, the cov op skill lowering the rquirements of the launchers further so that the third could be fitted easier. The others were different in that the damage bonus had to be earned and they also got a turret damage bonus(hybrid for nemesis, energy for purifier, projectile for hound)
There were other differences but it's been too long I can't remember more.
Edit: Ah thinking this is how it used to be
Manticore Frig/base: 25% to kinetic cruise PG fitting bonus
Cov ops: Another fitting bonus to make third launcher easier to fit, cpu I think Speed bonus
Others Frig/base: 25% damage to turret type PG fitting bonus
Cov ops: 25% to cruise damage type Speed bonus
Edit again: further thinking I'm actually thinking maybe I'm wrong, if you replace the PG bonus with cruise damage(possible, it's too hazy) and the PG reduction being a role bonus... Well they're not too far off. :/ been too long.

Ok that makes sense then. I was right that the manti had an extra launcher just not the number of launchers. Thanks for your help!
