Main discussion

  1. Old ships – do they have a place in Elite Dangerous? Pt II
  2. As someone on the forums pointed out, it is now 4 years since we last had a new ship. So we’re going to look over the old ships and see if any of them are relevant or has their original role already been taken by existing ships-
    1. Imperial Explorer – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Imperial_Explorer
    2. Imperial Trader – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Imperial_Trader
    3. Kestrel Airfighter – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Kestrel_Airfighter
    4. Krait MK I * – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Krait_(disambiguation)
    5. Lanner – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Lanner
    6. Lanner 2 – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Lanner_2
    7. Lifter – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Lifter
    8. Lion – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Lion
    9. Mantis – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Mantis
    10. Merlin – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Merlin
    11. Moray * – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Moray_Starboat_(Frontier)
    12. Osprey – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Osprey_Attack_Fighter
    13. Osprey X – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Osprey_X
    14. Panther Clipper – https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Panther_Clipper
  3. Alec’s forum questionnaire – If Frontier were to add a new ship, give three attributes of that ship (and they can be anything from aesthetics to specific ship stat’s) that you’d like to see in that new ship.
    1. Northpin response to that: It seems to me that you want a B-Wing the size of a Panther Clipper… or at least Beluga sized.
    2. Angusmadmac1: A decent medium imperial ship, Speed and shields for general sneakyness ? Or a modular ship like thunderbird 2 or like space 1999 eagles ?
    3. EdsUp: Me personally I would love all the “Ships of Elite” which basically equates to Elite 1-3 ships in ED, yeah I know its a huge undertaking but I do believe that the new ships would make the game so varied that it would give everyone something to play the game again for.
