M67A1E3 Linebacker Class Corvette 2016-01-20

EE was the first server I started playing on. That was after the reset and the LInebacker was the biggest and strongest pirate. I can still get flashbacks and nightmares from my first encounters with this ship!
It was also the ship that encouraged me to get better at building effective ships that still looked good. It ended up with a cruiser that I used mostly to farm pirates on EE, but when 2 linebackers showed up, I was in trouble.

Such a lovely (and durable!) ship, though not one to just "spawn in and go" in a pinch as I found out a short while ago, couldnt get the pew pews to go bang immediately so I just used it as a ram.
Still gud.

I remember this from EE. I liked it so much I had to go through all the trouble of surgically coring one (yea, we could do that back then) to repair it and bring it home. It was the first ever pirate ship that made me respect it. So glad to see the original, updated and ready to fly once again.
