KWHAT?! Well, then I'll go with Rix. Because I don't want to have to have a gunner to kill people!

I voted Rix, but the Lxy tempted me strongly.

All you Bios people are out of your mind.

rix hvy scouts are insane...with 1200 range, and up to 1500 if u have exp range gas

even more scary is against sup, you can take down a figs shields and some of their hull BEFORE THEY EVEN EYE YOU

and you dont have to wait for no stinkin' gunner to steal all your kills! /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />

Only problem is, that the aiming reticle only activates at ~1200m with the range GA's. So you have to watch the distance to profit from that insane faction range ga

Hmm, my two favourite ships in DN are BIOS Hvy scout and Rix Hvy scout in that order. It's a tough choice though.

With full sup GA's and tech, the BIOS Hvy scout is a thing of beauty (unless you are an SB, miner or light con /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> ).

The problem with this "awesome tech" is that a techbase is required to actually win. Hvy Scouts are just gravy.
