thoughts: isnt the abaddons targetting range crappy! must be meant as a close range gank boat so it doesnt replace the apoc, which it surely would otherwise... i doubt it will replace the geddon as it costs 100m more

Originally by: Laboratus Um, what role is the Hyperion supposed to fill there? Cause, I really can't see using this one for anything.
erm, blaster boat with awesome tank?
I think it looks INCREDIBLE. Its fast, light, agile, it pwns, and it tanks like a beast.
It will be the new king of DPS.

Well, glad I've got Battlecruisers 5, sure as hell ain't going to be buying/flying those new BSs on release day.
Please don't.
I look forward to crashing into your Tier 2 BC at 1700 m/s in my shiny new hyperion and ripping you to shreds in a few seconds :)

Good luck tracking anything up close

Originally by: Tiuwaz Edited by: Tiuwaz on 24/10/2006 14:10:35 the hyperion has a lot less mass than the other BS and will benefit greatly from that when equipping a mwd (which is kinda a given for blasterboat)
See...this is the same problem with the phoon, it's "the fastest" of the current battleships, but only by what, 5-10m/s? At those slow BS speeds, that means jack. Also, have you looked at the Megathron lately? It has the exact same mass as the Hyperion. So, your arguement makes no sense.
The agility stats are hidden.
Fly a Vindicator and you will see what I mean. Its HEAVIER than the mega, but much more agile.
The hyperion WILL be excellent with an MWD.

It this true or just left out?
True, or what possible reason would there be for using Tier 1 BC's?

Originally by: O Thief
Originally by: Alex Tremayne The Hyperion is seriously lacking as a blaster platform though. It's slow: only 5m/s faster than the Megathron, and the second bonus is redundant. Oh, and the grid is very weak.
Agility is more important that top speed.
Grid is okay if you're using electron II's/tank setup which is still excellent DPS.
O_o
The Hyperion has *less grid* than the Megathron and you think that's not a problem? It has the same mass as the Tempest and is 10m/s slower than it. This is not what I call "fast". This really, really sucks as a blasterboat.
Top speed is not important. Mass is not important. AGILITY is important. Fly a vindicator with MWD and you will see what I mean.
Or, stick a couple of nanofibers on your Megathron. Thats how the Hyperion will fly.

Originally by: Zixxa Hmm, is it enough PG on Rokh/Hyperion? To fit 8 425 t2 + MWD? Looks not very good. 50 m2 dronebay on Rokh is just suxx.
Why would you want to fit 8 425mm rails and an MWD?
Tell me that was a typo.

Originally by: Kunming From what I understand, Hyperion and Rokh ar not even finished ships on the test server, they got no models and most stats are the same as on their Tier2 counterparts..
Yeah, my Mega has 5 midslots and an armor rep bonus.
Seriously, don't be so silly.

No, it was not. 8 rails because I want to have damage of Hyperion. Sometimes. MWD to be safe or to win distance or because of commander order. Very simple. I(personally) need MWD and 8 t2 rails!
Well, get ready to use your lows for some RCU II then.

Originally by: Taurequis Hi,
I really can't see why anyone would fly tier 1 bc's anymore.
Anyone care to point out where the -
Brutix Ferox Cyclone Prophecy
Fit in to the grand scheme of things.

Originally by: Taurequis
As the bloke below your post said they (gang assit bonus) are just missed from the description...
So are all the tier 1 versions basically redundant? (except for a slightly better tank)
Taur
Just have too see how it pans out. I can't imagine never using the Brutix, the DPS with 7 med TII blasters and 5 med drones is still pretty nice.
