which Command Cruiser to get.

With only about 5 days max to wait, I have the following choices.

Nighthawk

or

Vulture

Both are basically Tech 2 versions of the Ferox.
I will be able to fly both, yet I am leaning towards one.
But before I voice my opinion, what are yours?

These are both command ships. Meaning your skills and modules can help others in your gang. One thinhg i see in the info on each ship is the bonuses. What do you plan to outfit your ship with? Guns or Missles?

I my self would take the Vulture. I like the higher powergrid and the 5 launcher hardpoints and 5 turret hardpoints. Just my 2 pennies. :)

I would have to agree, you get the advantage of having 3 modules vice only 1 but you lose some missile bonuses in the process. But from the command point of view, the 2 extra modules would be extra nice. :D

The Vulture is the one I'm looking at.
1. It Cheaper.
2. It retains the flexibility of guns or missiles.
3. The extra mid slot allows for a shield amp with an AB
4. The shield resists are higher.


The NightHawk stats appear to have been reduced,
as its been made into a pure missile boat.
And I wouldn't be surprised if they replaced the Ferox based
Nighthawk with the new Caldari Battlecruiser desgin,
as that appears to be a missile boat.

The extra command modules are not too much of a factor at the moment,
but may come into play in the future.
