Topic: SFB Gurus - Klink G1K's? (Read 1507 times)

So I was flipping through Module K, wondering if the Klinks could use
PF's to fight the Fed super fighters, when I cam across the description of the G1K
- "variant designed to hunt fighters"
Great! Thinks I, eagerly flpping to the page in the SSD book to see what they're like..

They're the same thing as a normal G1.. is my SSD book broken?
Am I missing something?
Why are they variants if they're the same ship?

The G1Ks had drone rack that could fire a crap-load of dogfight drones.

Hmmm... K-G1Km?

.....
Well that's better than my thought of extra AMD , but I don't think the Alliance would like it..

Both ideas are crazy.

G1's are pretty damn good at killing fighters now. Not everyone gets AMD on a PF.

Soooo you're not really open to the idea of adding AMD to
certain races PF's then eh?

I am not for overproliferation of free extra point defense, no. It changes too many things. Drones become useless. Carriers become useless.

<CHEAP SHOT> Then you must also be against half the Fed shiplist.

If you mean double duty G-racks, then pretty much, yes.

I assume there would likely be some weird UI issues, but since fighters can use ship weapons, can ships use fighter weapons? The fighter type-I drone isn't a perfect match for dogfight drones, but it seems as close as we'll ever get to mounting E-racks on anything...adding ADD gives G1Ks WAY more drone defense than is reasonable, MIRVs are a better idea, but would have too many reloads if two were used, going to one drops too much firepower. If the fighter drones could be done, I'd say try those.
