Z-22 Presents: The New Balor

[Greenwall-Exe]

About the PR

After the previous designs failure to meet the high expectations of the sectors regulators, we at Zephyr-22 have hit the drawingboard once again to bring to you an exquisite experience and machine. Introducing the new and improved Balor, equipped with state of the art drone technology, a Z-Pinch reactor, MS-100 Shield, Cr-25 Bluespace Jumpdrive, re-manufacturing wing, Research Server, a spacious external cargo bay and our expansive spaced armor system with acompanied cardinal docks to deploy your hard working drones the Rac-Man and Bow-Man, which you can acquire 3 of, with the accomanying 3 LPCs in the cockpit. If somehow those pesky rim world drones manage to incapacitate your drones fret not, with a bit of a research donation, we can give you the blueprints to create your own LPCs for continued drone output. If dire needs arise, you can of course purchase additional drones outright with cash and the appropriate ID.

Why / Balance

Its a low gunned drone mothership intended for drone hunting, and giving non faction players a taste of drone combat. It can take a beating and few rammer drones while the drones handle the threats, or if needed distract targets until you can gain distance and jump to safety. while it is equipped with dravons it can only bring two to bear with measly 20mms as support in any given orientation, it will not survive long without its drones or nearby friendly support craft.

How to test

Spawn it in, fly around, buy some drones using the accompanied lpcs, do the research to craft more lpcs, craft said lpcs, etc.

Side note, thanks Ilya, Barks, Avalon and others who helped me refine this rendition of the balor
