(...) Nice evolution!!! I also dig the really cramped minimalist cockpit. And the asymmetry of course. Those pirates really economise on their designs! And here I was thinking the life of a pirate was all about wealth and excess - heck, they may as (...) (20 years ago, 10-Dec-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Would you like fries with that, you scurvy dog? Anyway I just wanted to say I liked this ship... but also comment that Soren comes up with pretty nifty ship names. I got a couple of chuckles just looking at the folder thumbnails (20 years ago, 10-Dec-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

I hereby name Soren "Mr.Space" Roberts. He has been producing the most innovative and most radical designs for the past fews months at an impressive rate. Sure, its because he's been an unemployed shut-in, watching 1980's anime and drinking cough (...) (20 years ago, 10-Dec-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

NICE!!! Awesome ship design. The missiles are what really caught my eye though (weapons fanatic that I am), those are some cool designs! The way they fit onto the ship gives for a really cool look. -Stefan- (20 years ago, 10-Dec-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Heh, thanks. (...) Heh, I don't know about shut-in, but the unemployed bit is certainly true :(. And I prefer to drink fresh-squeezed Fleebjuice. It's not bad once your throat scars up a bit. Breakfast of champions, if the radiation doesn't (...) (20 years ago, 10-Dec-04, to lugnet.space)

(...) Thanks. I wanted to use that nose section again - I like it too much for just one MOC. (...) Wealth and excess come later - first you gotta make a name for yourself. Asymmetry is fun. More people should try it. Soren (20 years ago, 10-Dec-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Dude, pirates have the coolest spaceships. If it weren't for those dang PCS Star Ranger patrols, piracy would be all beer and skittles. Great presentation, Soren.

(...) Cool. I love the asymmetry of that ship, as well as it's unusual engine. Nice handling of the angled pieces in front. I do feel like there should be more bulk between the engine and the front of the craft - from a geeky engineering standpoint (...) (20 years ago, 12-Dec-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

El pirates return! Too bad for the Star Rangers, they probably thought the pirates were done with new craft for now! The missles, the shape, the colors, what isn't good about this ship? -Matthew (20 years ago, 15-Dec-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
