There is also the ramship: The ship that is designed to be as cheap as possible, and simply ram into high value enemy ships when their shields go down. Used most by Mr. Purple. His tactics created many panic inducing moments!

Historically, ships set up to ruin enemy ships or ship formations in a self destructive manner were called "fire ships" on the count of them being set on fire beforehand to maximize the chaos they cause. I posit that Mr. Purple is doing the same sort of thing, even without the fire.

My small fighter holds twelve freighters, a mini nuke, half a mining rig, assembly facility and is built into an asteroid. I know at a glance you wouldn't be able to tell but the small rig and tiny cockpit give it away. Also, it's in the Toyota class resembling a Prius. Broadly speaking..

I like the designations. Personally, I swap 'Fast Mover' with 'Interceptor' a lot, but that's the only difference that stands out. Also, you forgot the 'Brotato' designator, but I guess that could be a 'Flagship'?

Ooo, love getting these vids! I don't play Starcore but on the SE server I play on there are always arguements over what to call different classes, interesting stuff!

Best narrative, cant wait for more!

Nicely done. 👍

Its as good as i waa hoping, but flagship isnt the only term. Half-tato is also vert widespread. I think that range division is also critically important as most people build ships for a specific range bracket, the naming isnt neat there though. Maybe rushdown/midrange/kiter?

Battlerock Potato is hailing us sir!

I mean, dreadnought is a weird class, theres no real set size for a dreadnought, its typically reserved for any ship that carries an absolutely gargantuan amount of fuck you, like, as far as real world ships, there were dreadnoughts and super dreadnoughts that were the size of heavy cruisers, for example, the iowa class battleship actually dwarfed pretty much every super dreadnought ever built

FIRST! seriously tho, good explanation! something i can link to the newbies to get them up to speed!

What are those 3x bigboy guns you see at 1:45 ?

is that the eternity's advent lmao

Carriers, gunboats, face huggers, kiter's, snipers, missileboats, etc. Those are all prefixes to add before the Brawler, Tank, Fastmover, etc. Sniper tanks are popular, if you cant control the range with speed why not do it with guns. Face hugging brawlers have all the knife fighting weapons that do the most damage but have the shortest range. One of the most dangerous threats to any ships. Then we also add in prefixes that could refer to the main gun of a ships armorment if the gun is popular/notorious enough and the player has gone mostly all in on it. It could be as generic as "turret ship" or "fixed gun ship" if they bring almost exclusively turrets or fixed guns that you aim, or more specific like a hunter ship or monopole ship, because they went heavily into a more uniform loadout.

rip DarkStar

I call the ships around 12.5m "Cruisers" and then add their specification in front of that. For instance a "light missile cruiser" would be a 8-10mil ship with mainly missiles as weaponary. Brawlers in my head are Cruisers specified for CQC with a lot of shorter range, heavy hitting weaponary.

I'll call it what I want in my own fleet progression thanks 👍 still cool.vid though

this is an ad for starcore. thanks for the misleading title :)

Your welcome

so what youre saying..........is that there are multiple terms/names for classifying things and that no one is wrong and you just fucked up the title by not saying IN THIS MODE WE CALL THEM "THIS" cause we want to feel special
