USB War


One of the more favorable ships in the fleet and is obviously known best for a long protrusion out of the bow that leaves its recipient with the word "RAW" on their B-hind.

War was once an abandoned cruiser, left behind by a very strong pilot who claimed it was too heavy to ride. Skunk picked it up via transport and took it home. It didn't seem that it could possibly be heavy enough to make someone abandon it, so Skunk rode it into work the next day. After about four light years he had to get off and spacewalk. This ship was CURSED.

When Skunk go to Merlin he decided it was so heavy that the only thing it could be good for is a battering ram. So he welded on an extension with a plate adorned with weld beads that spell "WAR". Remember, WAR is RAW backwards.

Years later we realized the spokes were so loose that it was completely sucking the rotational energy out of the thrusters. We tightened them up and suddenly the curse was lifted, and USB War was spry and frisky. Huzzah!

There's a strange illusion that happens when you turn this ship: the pilot expects the ram to move with the helm and the navigational thruster, but lags behind in a swooping motion, almost like a boxer's hook. If you pilot this ship be careful not to get hypnotized and slam into something you didn't intent to - this is the voice of experience talking!

For obvious reasons, this ship should be used very carefully in a dogfight derby.

War! Uh! Good gawd, yawl! What is it good for?!

Absolutely NUTHIN!

Sayit eggin!
