[SHIP] The Raven - A drone-focused challenge ship

Post by itg »

An incomplete federation prototype, this ship features an advanced defense drone but lacks any form of shielding.


The Raven is a drone-focused challenge ship. The ship lacks shields and cannot buy them in the "normal" version of the ship (I have also uploaded an "easy" version which can buy shields). In lieu of shields, you get a boss-variant defense drone, which uses only 2 power.

In some ways, playing the Raven is like doing a shieldless run with the Nesasio. However, the Raven should require a lot less luck, thanks to the boss defense drone, and thanks to the bombs + beam drone combo, the Raven has a totally unique feel.

The ship comes complete with gibs. You'll probably be seeing a lot of them!

Awesome, unique and would fit FTL perfectly as a Stealth type C
Some of my FTL mods you may like, or hate, or... yeah:

Thanks!

While I'm here, here's a shot of the ship destroying the flagship (on normal), partly to prove it's possible, but mainly just to show off the cloaking image:
