Description: [0.20.25][Ion Prism Orbiter] none, CH4MP1ON by Enoshade (1.5mil) Design: Medium - The original base before optimisations is a very simple wall layout Piloting: Hard - When combining orbiter piloting with the fragile ship frame and predictive DC aiming, it becomes difficult to pilot. Especially so when dodging/absorbing missiles. CH4MP1ON is loosely inspired by Nord's classic prism orbital walls, updated for modern. It has some advantages over the avoider-style prism walls popular currently due to having a significantly higher forward speed (140m/s+) and having plenty of well-powered shields. The EMP missiles in general can be a dice roll against other light ships with exposed CRs. Avoid ramming ships with EB, utilise orbiting techniques to stay on target and eat through shields from a moderate range. This 'spiral of death' is the hardest manoeuvre to execute due to the high precision and margin for opponent interruption involved. The large shields on the sides greatly help alleviate damage when circling at extreme angles, but are not enough without switching sides relatively often. Suffers when rushing heavy rail kites as two shots can take out a CR, and shields do not regenerate fast enough. May technically win vs a deck cannon orbiter, but would require perfect piloting at length. Note: All of my ships are free to look at, copy, and use for any purpos
