Topic: Which BCH ? (Read 14686 times)

Just interested to see which is the most popular BCH, not including CV versions. If there are more than one BCH for a race or if you are not sure, say which one below.

Context is a campaign for PvP action, but you don't have to say "well I fly Fed so its a BCG" imagine flying with whoever you wanted, and the Admiral says here are X BCHs pick one Mr. Super pilot

Sorry, can't pick one. I enjoy flying the C7, KCR, CCZ, C7L (Dizzy creation for SG3 was very nice to fly), G-BCH, but as for picking just one, nah. If you're excluding CV versions though, then the CCZ reigns supreme, imo. But I wouldn't want to fly that all the time, too easy, which gets boring.

762_XC · « **Reply #2 on:** July 15, 2004, 08:52:59 am »

In my own mind I would rank them thusly (assuming D2 loadouts):

I-CCZ
L-BCHP
R-KCR
K-C7/F-BCF (take your pick)
H-OV
Z-BCH (Moggy)
G-BCH
Z-BCH (stock)

Only in general terms of course - there is a lot of rock-paper-scissors in the list.

FPF-DieHard · « **Reply #3 on:** July 15, 2004, 08:59:55 am »

I picked the I-CCZ. Not even a contest.

FPF-Tobin Dax · « **Reply #4 on:** July 15, 2004, 09:03:57 am »

The CCZ may be the best, but I would rather fly the KHK instead and for the most fun, the KCR.

Gook · « **Reply #5 on:** July 15, 2004, 11:29:15 am »

Interesting so far, I didn't vote until now, but mine is a KHK, never lost in a KHK.

762_XC · « **Reply #6 on:** July 15, 2004, 11:38:20 am »

I wouldn't even consider a KHK a BCH. It's really in a separate class.

TotensBurntCorpse · « **Reply #7 on:** July 15, 2004, 11:52:58 am »

If I had to rank...

vs P
R-KHK
L-BCH (excluding LDR ships)
I-CCZ
K-C7
Z-BCH
R-KCR
H-OS
G-BCH
F-BCG
F-BCF
F-BCE
I-CAZ

considering power curve vs weapons suite

vs AI
L-BCH (excluding LDR ships)
K-C7
F-BCG
Z-BCH
H-OS
R-KHK
G-BCH
R-KCR
I-CCZ
F-BCF
I-CAZ
F-BCE

considering fastest time to fully loaded to do the kill

But this is based upon how I would flly the ships, others may have different views

Guys, just pick one the one you think is the best, the one you want to fly say for a week in a Dyna, not too difficult I think everybody must have a preference, no one has to say what they voted, thats optional.

762_XC · « **Reply #9 on:** July 15, 2004, 12:33:13 pm »

You must mean the OV toten. OS is a BCV.

FPF-DieHard · « **Reply #11 on:** July 15, 2004, 12:58:41 pm »

if you remove the pocket DNs (R-KHK, I-CCZ), my vote changes to the F-BCF.

The F-BCF is a great ship, it just lacks the mojo to fight ships in the 220 BPV range.

I'll take a War Destroyer, thx.

Moggy's Z-BCV is nearly unbeatable if u know what ur doing.

I don't fly BCH's. Not even in single-player. I'm just unable to fly them properly. However, I'll do the same task that would normally be assigned to a BCH in a CL to NCA hull and perform better than I would in a BCH.

On that note, I voted Gorn :p

Age · « **Reply #15 on:** July 15, 2004, 05:25:39 pm »

I know I am still single but I prefer a CA down to a CL or a good DD. am not a fan of BCHs.

I-CCZ.

IMO, the best ship in the game. And not because I'm biased as an ISC pilot.

2 PPDs for ranged sniping / setting up a castle. 2 Forward Plasma Ss for in-close extra-strong deterrent. 6 Pl-Is allow 2 Plasma Fs per turn out the tail. Enough phasers to stuff just about all 12-drone waves sent at it's front end.

It is probably the best plasma ship to use for the standard "droner" tactic of running away from the enemy, shooting at an enemy directly on your #4 shield. Capable of running near 31 while recharging 4-5 I-torps with 4 ECM. 40 damage to the face nearly every turn at ranges up to 12. Drop speed to 28 or so and it is a solid 40 every turn...

For the sake of clarity, "absolutelty free choice" means just that, no qualifications as to what or what is not a BCH. If it is designated as one it is one.
