I had a few dreams were I was captain of an Arrow Freighter and I have been thinking. If I could have one ship from Orbiter, what would I chose? I think I would have the Arrow Freighter. But what would you chose? If the ship has multiple color schemes what color would it be?

TARDIS. No explanation needed.

If that's too much to ask, I would shamelessly want my own (unreleased) starship. Many kilometres long, possessing its own facilities with which to process resources and produce other, smaller spacecraft, self-repairing, and capable of near-lightspeed interstellar travel.

I'd also settle for a star destroyer. You can definitely pick up chicks with a star destroyer.

But mainly I'd want the TARDIS.

I thought that this thread was about fictional ships that were from (i.e. exclusive to) Orbiter.

In that case I'd better fix the bugs in my other FTL time machine... :p

(Which is the above-mentioned starship with some 'debug' features enabled... ;))

Why are so many people going for the XR-2? You'll get one flight at most, from a carefully prepared runway to either your death in space or return to another perfect runway. Chances are your local authorities or someone else will steal it from you, or no one will be able to replicate the propellant.

You might also have to share the cockpit with a creepy bald guy. :shifty:

Seriously, the possibilities are limitless with simplified physics, magic and some very interesting abilities (oapiSetSimMJD(), anyone?)

What about the Interdictor Cruiser? [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=3801"]Interdictor[/ame] With it, you can pick them up, and they can't run away (muahahahahaha!).

I'm torm between the fantastic (Arrow), the pretty out-there DG-EX and the possibly-more-than-likely-maybe-if-we-spend-the-research money-future tech G-42.

But yeah... [ame="http://www.orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=3379"]Doctor Who - Tardis and Dalek[/ame] if you want pure fantasy :thumbup:

I want me an XR5...nothing says 'good morning neighbor!'* Like six rocket motors going off in the street every morning.

Stock Deltaglider would be fine for me - maintenance cost should be much cheaper than for XR-2.

Also, guys who chose Arrow - how do you plan to get it off Earth's surface?

Gotta be my own lil' ShuttlePB. I mean, it's the only one that would actually fit in my garden, mind, but hey...

In terms of the Orbiter addon universe, I'd really love a [ame="http://orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=2934"]Swift[/ame]. A couple of cruise missile engines, with room for a friend *Sigh*

Good point... if I could chose two ships I would chose DGIV and Arrow Freighter so I could use the DGIV to land and I would leave the Arrow in orbit, ready for me to return, but since I can't I guess I would just go with the DGIV. It is quite easy to pilot.
