you aren't right. It is 160 mp cheaper, but to compensate, it doesn't fight. So it only got 1 out of the 2 advantages the timeslipper got compared to the ms.

What don't you get about it? Just like a mothership it doesn't fight. It's a fast mothership that costs an awful lot of mp.
I'd say make it cheaper, about 760 mp. Then it is 237,5 % more expernsive then a ms, and it is 160% faster.
And it is 240 mp cheaper then a timeslipper, but it can't fight. Make it about 750/760 mp, then it is more balanced. |

Can it provide warp for otherships though, thats the main question and if it can its nice.

Useless! nanite can use the lowrider.Less manpower?No way that would make it unbalenced.

don 'T be so rude, you should try to miotivate and instruct the people in this forum to make better ships. this ship is nearly balanced. it is not bad too. there are other reasons why it can't be added to the game:
there shouldn't be too fast warp ships because the defender needs time to react. a warp 5 ship let's about 5 hours warning time, which should stay standart.
the faster warp ships have all bigger drawbacks , so that aren't used by too many players.
(cannot transport all classes, sd in a battle, have low armor)
so if you invent fast warp ship you need to install greater drawback so that the average warnig time isn't reduced too much 
my suggestion is:
bird of peace
warp 8 , 0/1000, class 4
the fleet that contains a bird of peace cannot have any other attitude than defense.
do you like it ? no ??? so invent a better one  |

thats not to bad an idea good to use to protect alliance mates
I thought the original was unbalenced because it had no real draw back was too cheap if anything.Plus the nanites can use the lowrider and thats only 400 mp but usless to use with class 3 fleets that gives it a good drawback.

| sometimes people forget to change their fleet attitude from attack to defense while in base,so you would fight anyway.but thats a really loooooooooong shot |

You mean core driver. Lowrider is the c3 killer. Or does a lowrider also gives warp for other ships?
And the core driver is cheaper because it also is slower. Well this one is much fater then a ms, but it is much much much more expensive then a ms.

Yes it can, otherwise it would say : only establsih a warpfield for itself.

Duh. It gives warp and doesnt fight. Guess what a ms does.
warp 8 doesn't have to be that scary fast. Saying it doesn't give enough reaction time has got a very relative meaning.
It depends on for how long you've been flying to that base. Every ETA below 10 hours su.cks because you cant prepare by building good fleets. And every ETA above 4.5 hours su.cks because you cant see what they are coming with on your dsp.
So IF you got a dsp on your planet's coordinates, you can see what he's got and you can manage your ships by sending them to the right fleets with the right attitudes.
And even with warp 8 and you are waiting 1 sector next to your target, you are still flying around 18.75 minutes before you arrive. Even a reumatic senior that doesn't understand the game can switch fleets within 18 minutes. |
