When Scum was announced, I was disappointed that a ship with the history as the Cloak would not have made it into the game. It is essentially similar to the Syck, as it was designed to be customizable.
that being said, we have been told that each faction will have different play styles. Will scum lead to more customizable ships like the Syck?
I think that would be awesome!!!!!!!
Cloak shape, T wing, R-41 (with r42 upgrade ala bwing/e2).
All of these in time.
Patience, grasshopper. All things come to those who wait (except the Vigil, apparently).
Wave 6 is merely Wave 1 of Scum & Villany. More will come.
Edit: Of course, if patience isn't your strong suit there's always this naughty little chappie
Edited by FTS GeckoI doubt we ever see a Cloakshape. Its just way too similar to a Syck or Z-95 as far as its roll.
According to the fluff it has 2 Laser Cannons, missile launcher, and relatively unmaneuverable and slow for its size. It did have adequate armor and was highly customizable.
Maybe 2/2/4/0
Action bar: Focus, TL
Upgrades: Missile, Cannon, Illicit, and Sensor
Dial similar to a Z-95s. Perhaps it can come with a title to allow you to take a modification for -2 or half off that modification, given that it was such an easy ship to modify.
I still don't think it would be "different" enough to make it unique.
Probably behind the Mist Hunter, Punishing One, and Hounds Tooth in the que...
hey, we have confirmation that playtesting is occurring through Wave 8. It could certainly come this year.
well, if I remember correctly, west end games had the cloak with a maneuverability upgrade.
wouldn't that be cool if an upgrade improved your dials as follows:
red turns become white and
white turns become green.
print the arrows on the dial so that each one is half 1 color and half the other. we haven't seen that on a dial yet!!
and it would make the ship that much more unique.
