Aegis Reclaimer

Getting kind of a more Halo vibe from it, a la Pillar of Autumn or In Amber Clad, than Alien. With the exception of the thrusters, of course..

And now I want a Flood-like enemies to be a thing.

 

Sale is live
https://robertsspaceindustries.com/...71-Concept-Sale-Unveiling-The-Aegis-Reclaimer

Will be around till Oct 6


Also they mention that next time it goes on "sale" it will cost more and not have LTI.

 

Considering the size of the Constellation, which is roughly one-third the Reclamier's size, a $75 price difference is a bargain...

 

Class 9s are only point defense weapons likely only a Size 1 or 2 tops on the weapon size, but if you combined those with the rest of the weapons and used High RoF weapons could hold off some fighters well enough.

 

I expect this and the Hull C will be the most expensive of the lot due to their size.

 

Oh I'm pretty certain a PU-variant of the Javelin will cost more

 

Wasn't really comparing them to the, Destroyer if I remember correctly, but yes I imagine it will cost a lot in the PU.

 

Well I picked one up. The salvaging mechanic has interested me since we unlocked it and I think it would be wise to have at least a few of these on exploration Ops (never know what you may find)

 

There was an impromptu stream this evening on the Reclaimer. Sounds like it's going to be a lot of fun.

http://www.twitch.tv/cigcommunity/c/5189340

Somebody in the subscriber forums posted this good breakdown of the stream:

• Combat Drones @2:44 - Yes (When CIG makes combat drones)
• Reclaimer Variants @4:15 - Possible
• How the Relcaimer reclaims @5:30
• Reclaimer as a mining ship @6:49 - Yes, but not ideal
• Separation of storage space in the Reclaimer @12:49 - Can't use reclaimer storage for general cargo.
• How are Reclaimer weapons utilized @14:00 - 3 Turret operators, TBD if they are in turrets or in a weapon room remote operating them. (FIX FOR THE CONNIE TURRETS?!?)

Anyidea how long it will be on sale for? Cuz i want one but need to wait for paychecks.... Ramen and hotdogs for a few more weeks seems worth it..., haha.

 

read up some posts and you would have known the answer ;P

 

Thanks man..... Gonna be tight but i think im gonna try and squeez one in for myself this next paycheck *fingers crossed*!

 

I feel you, I am annoyed that I will have enough cash for another in late November and the Carrack will likely be gone by then.

 

With my Connie Taurus doing runs if u can transfer cargo gives a little bit extra time out scavenging. Not to mention I really like the mean look it has to it.

 

serenity...........i have found thee

 

I said the same thing when I saw t even my gf said it. Just a lot more beefy. And armed...very much armed lol

 

Mm maybe I shouldn't jump the gun on this.... The Orion might be a better bet for me, mining and all. Didn't see anything about it being on sale soon tho....... Decisions decisions

 

Well the twitch said the concepts will go on sale as Chris approves them, so no real ETA on the rest of the concepts.

However this is from Sandi's facebook and it is believed to be the Orion bridge, since it has an RSI vibe to it.

 

Eh fuck it I'll prob get me both I did just got a raise mind as we'll treat myself to something nice!
