Jorah Vulture	Posted - 2008.05.08 17:23:00 - [1] I dunno what's up with minnies. I regarded them as the ugliest race with the ugliest ships. I had no interest AT ALL in flying them. I've been switching between Gallente, Amarr and Caldari but I really didn't get to like any of them, I just couldn't decide. Then I made this minmatar alt... Just for trying... And I can't believe it, there's something magical in these ships, and you can't feel it until you fly them yourself. The rifter, the Rupture (which I always thought to be EVE's UGLIEST ship and now I'm simply in love with it), the Vagabond (Can't wait to fly it). Well, basically all minmatar ships have something special that keeps me hooked to this race. This alt has basically became my new main :P. Do you feel the same about minmatar ships? Or just fly them for the stats while not really enjoying the appearance?
Freya Runestone Minmatar	Posted - 2008.05.08 17:26:00 - [2] I think caldari ships are the ugliest, looks like 10 designers each designed a part of the ship, leading to these weird shapes some of them have. some of the minmatar ships are kinda .. meh, but I like the genera look of the ships.
Lord Durkan	Posted - 2008.05.08 17:28:00 - [3] I fly Amarr just because that what i started as and dont want to back track. But i agree with you 100% There is something Minmatar ships that I love too. Btw the names and the rugged look, i do love them as well, might learn to fly duct tape destroyers one day.... hmmmm
Corduroy Rab Digital Fury Corporation Digital Renegades	Posted - 2008.05.08 17:33:00 - [4] The magic behind Minmatar ships is the fact that there is only one type of Minmatar ship. All the variation simply comes from when in the construction process the engineers decide to stop building it. More seriously, I love the look of the vagabond. It reminds me of a dragon.

Haha I could make a signature out of that :P
Benco97 Gallente Exchangable Properties	Posted - 2008.05.08 17:37:00 - [6] I too love the look of minmatar ships, there is something special about them. I was a little sad when I saw the new models for the Burst and Prowler in the premium graphics as they were changed quite a lot (The prowler lost the AWESOME blue lightning that arced around inside it, WHY?! ) and don't quite feel as good anymore Originally by: Kirjava This man speaks the truth, when he farts we count the length in seconds and make squillions buying winning lottery tickets.
Kyra Felann Gallente Noctis Fleet Technologies	Posted - 2008.05.08 18:20:00 - [7] Minmatar ships to me seem like an old, ugly, beat up, rusty junker car that's been hot-rodded with an over-sized tweaked engine to go really really fast (spewing profuse black smoke the whole way) and had some WWII-era machine guns bolted on top. That said, a car like that sounds pretty cool to me. If I flew another race's ships (Gallente all the way here), it'd be Minmatar.
brakespear Minmatar Wayward Brewing	Posted - 2008.05.08 18:20:00 - [8] Originally by: Benco97 (The prowler lost the AWESOME blue lightning that arced around inside it, WHY?! ) It did???? Damn, that's a crying shame, I used to love seeing that -------------------------------------------------- 'people will always be tempted to wipe their feet on anything with 'welcome' written on it.'

RuleoftheBone Minmatar Veto. Veto Corp	Posted - 2008.05.08 18:31:00 - [10] My Rapier screams evil...my victims just scream . It just looks the business...as do the Vagabond and Hurricane. The Jaguar is lovely too . "Lead Me..Follow Me..Or get the **** out of my way" General George Patton USA
Jorah Vulture	Posted - 2008.05.08 18:32:00 - [11] I'm also really looking forward to the Hound. It's got that "something". Any video of that ship around by the way?

Stakhanov Metafarmers	Posted - 2008.05.08 19:20:00 - [13] The minmatar lineup is nice indeed. I trained rifter , stabber , cane out of love for the minmatar style. Even now I'm tempted to resume crosstraining... Then I take a look at my gallente ships and forget about it Originally by: Bloody Puppy because it's a good game because it's a good game because it's a good gameeeeee ccp gonna nerf it
Ghengis Tia Amarr	Posted - 2008.05.08 20:16:00 - [14] I fly Minnie's almost exclusively now, as I became burned out on the Amarrian energy beam one-dimensional weapons. Now I use missiles, drones, and guns to their fullest, the versatility in DPS and speed of the ships just rock.
Amastat Caldari Omegatech	Posted - 2008.05.08 20:54:00 - [15] Yea, minnies are the ugliest mo-fos, ships and people alike - however it's what's inside that counts - LITERALLY. The Caldari have some ugly ships, but I think its only fair to say that the Griffin, Moa, Eagle, Osprey that are TRULY hideous. The Caracal, Scorpion, and Heron are not the best looking out there, but they arn't vomit-insuing. The Minmatar on the otherhand, 80% of their fleet are dangerously vomit-insuing . The Gallenteans have a few ugly-ass ships, the Dominix, Exequror, and of course the Imicus is their crowning achievement. The Amarrians have all the good looking ships, and not many of them are absolutly hideous - but they arn't perfect; but they are more attractive then all the other races IMO. Basically, the case is usually: the better looking the ship, the ****ter the ship. The more deadly the ship, the more vomit you get. ____________________ "All warfare is based on deception... we must seem unable...seem inactive...and crush him " - Sun Tzu, the

Splagada Minmatar Tides of Silence Hydra Alliance	Posted - 2008.05.08 22:10:00 - [20] the pest is really a gem ------ Tides of Silence
Terro Deagas Woopatang The Red Skull	Posted - 2008.05.08 22:15:00 - [21] Minmatar are the only race that seems to have some soul infused in their ships. Everyone else's are just cold and unfeeling, while Minmatar ships have really poor heat shielding design to keep us warm and fuzzy
Faife Noctiscion Twilight Trade Cartel	Posted - 2008.05.08 22:49:00 - [22] they make me think of mad max vehicles. and i love mad max.

Everyone else's are just cold and unfeeling, while Minmatar ships have really poor heat shielding design to keep us warm and fuzzy Not exclusive to minmatar. Well , caldari and amarr ships probably have no souls , but some gallente have a peculiar design. Not the warm soul of minmatar , more like an evil spirit tormenting captive souls and devouring some once in a while. See also : ishtar , dominix , megathron.

Mara Rinn Minmatar	Posted - 2008.05.08 23:10:00 - [25] My favourite Minmatar flying style description: Quote: Playing Minmatar is like going down a flight of stairs in a office chair firing an Uzi. The first time you fly a slasher with autocannons, afterburner and overdrive, you'll know this feeling. Then as you upgrade to larger hulls, you'll find the feeling never quite goes away. Slasher, Stabber, Hurricane, Typhoon, Maelstrom - the names say it all!
Alexis Machine Minmatar Ceraphite Technologies	Posted - 2008.05.08 23:12:00 - [26] I dig the whole post-apocalyptic feel they have.. I choose to start a Minnie way before I was accepted into the closed beta, based on the back story and few images they released at the time. I've never looked back. I've made other races as alts, but they always get deleted. I'm skilled to fly all races, but I find myself solely flying Minmatar, even if it puts me at a disadvantage. There's just something about 'em.
Micia Minmatar Thrace Inc Ushra'Khan	Posted - 2008.05.09 00:18:00 - [27] I'm feeling the minnie-love. _______ Break your chains! Kinda'Shujaa is just the first step.
Joe Starbreaker	Posted - 2008.05.09 01:47:00 - [28] It's all about the ray-bans. I'd gladly pay a hundred million ISK if I could get some sunglasses for my Khanid avatar. Pleeeeease CCP give us sunglasses! ---------------- [insert signature here]
Tortun Nahme Minmatar Umbra Synergy Final Retribution Alliance	Posted - 2008.05.09 01:59:00 - [29] Matari 4 life Originally by: Cecil Montague They should change that warning on entering low sec to: "Go read Crime and Punishment for a few days then come back."
Aeo IV Amarr	Posted - 2008.05.09 02:21:00 - [30] flying a Minnie ship is like picking s scab, you know you shouldn't, but you can't help yourself.
