stealth bombers blatantly need addressing. they'd be so cool if you could use a cov ops cloak on them, but from my recent excersion to empire, they now cost 75mil?! using a module like that on a ship designed to decloak and engage wouldn't be a good thing, as that module costs 10x than most bombers.
and an anti frig platform? with cruiser missiles? doesn't make much sense when most ships can outclass it with other weapons and don't have horrific fitting requirements.
they should be anti BS ships i think, bit nerfed but lethal in gangs of about 10-12 against 2 bs.

yeah but they die so easily, they're slow an can't tank whatsoever, and interceptors can kill them easily which is funny because they're supposed to be able to kill interceptors..

atm they're basically an expensive replacement of the old Cruise kessie, only 50x more expensive (which is prob why nobody uses them), or 200x more expensive if you feel like actually putting a cloak on it

why bother, wich cloak prices as they are. i was annoyed at having to buy a cloak for my pilgrim for 50mil, now they're nearly 80 andthe improved is 50! no way is the basic one worth over 5.
yeha i remember the ol cruise kessy they were great, shame, it's been the one player made function ccp failed to convert back into the game properly and it would be great if they'd managed it.

They aren't solo ships thats why. They are more support. Also what makes you think they are anti-inty? Inty vs cruise missle, the inty wins. Great for quick strikes on mining ops etc but not ganking unless you have lots of em and support.

The post above was by me btw and i love the manticore it is a great little ship for gang roams when our corp goes out we usually go on small roams with just ceptors some recons and a ass heap of bombers + if your against a nuts inty pilot you can actually instapop it with good skills (like i said if the pilot dont know how to fly inties) running into 3 cal navy wrath cruise with a mwd on? not clever idea
